Firefox removes href attribute from anchor tag on copy paste

Hi Support,

I have a text along with the image used as a hyperlink as follows.

"Sample Text.<a href="javascript:myfunction()"></a>"

When i copy the above text and paste it inside a HTML Control (for e.g. iframe), the control removes the href attribute of 'anchor' tag. It happens only with firefox and safari. It is working correctly in internet explorer.

"Sample Text.<a ></a>"

Is there any solution for this.? Awaiting for sooner response

I tested this in Gmail compose, and what I see is: regular links (href="url") are preserved during copy/paste, but javascript links (href="javascript:") are dropped/cleared.

I don't know whether this is by design. One place to research that would be https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/.
