Use keyboard shortcuts if the buttons on the web page or other methods aren't working.

  • Copy: Ctrl+C or Ctrl+Insert (Mac: Command + C)
  • Paste: Ctrl+V or Shift+Insert (Mac: Command + V)
  • Cut: Ctrl+X or Shift+Delete (Mac: Command + X)

Hi, thanks for your reply.

I can paste ok. But then I have to click Enter (in this way my comment is published, as usual in FB). Unfortunately since a few months if I press Enter I go "more space" and nothing else. see please here http://postimg.org/image/dhcicn4nj/ ok with chrome, therefore its not due to FB settings. what to do to publish a "pasted" comment? I have to write manually (even long URLs), not good :( thanks.

Try to use the Tab key to set focus to the submit button if the Enter key doesn't work (Space should submit as well when the submit button has focus).

not work :(

the submit botton does not exist, I never had submit botton for FB *comments*, (see please the link above), and if I use tab key as result I obtain to highlight the next post (next photo). oh why it is unpossible to paste a simply text into FB comments (comments only not other thing). Frustrating :(

write manually "ciao" as a comment. press Enter. done. your comment "ciao" is published. ok. http://postimg.org/image/hm09rq3t3/ ( I deleted my ciao now). you dont see submit bottons!!

go here notepad. type ciao. and copy it. http://postimg.org/image/obpueeydb/

now go back to the photo and paste ciao. ok http://postimg.org/image/5dns4cqpz/ but this remains NOT published.

question: how to do to get this ciao published? and how to do to get this ciao deleted? (I have to reload the page to delete it: I can add text ciaooooo oooooo but I cannot publish it nor delete to obtain ciaoo oo). its strange you agree?

I press Enter (to get it published), I go a bigger space in the comment space http://postimg.org/image/l11xxwpdr/

why it is so hard to publish a pasted text or url? thanks.

now.... I pasted the url and I wrote manually ppppppppp pppppppp http://postimg.org/image/4alavaq77/ press Enter, I can publish only: ppppppp i.e. the "pasted text" is NOT published! http://postimg.org/image/a2mkewbfz/
