In IE the clipboard data be retrieved via the JavaScript command “clipboardData.getData(‘Text’);”. Is there a comparable JavaScript command for accessing the clipboard data in firefox?

The firefox browser that I am testing with has AllowClipboard Helper configured to allow the web server access to the clipboard.
