onPaste (Event handler)

Called when a Paste operation is requested by the user.

Availability:

JScript - 5.0
Internet Explorer - 5.0
JavaScript syntax:IEmyObject.onpaste = aHandler

This is useful if you want to intercept and possibly block a paste operation where the user may be attempting to paste some external content into a text field. Perhaps you do want to let them do it but you want to be sure the contents are checked for data integrity.
