Description Anantha Keesara 2008-06-17 16:35:29 PDT 
I. Steps:
 -----------
 
 1. Launch Safari
 2. Launch the attached testcase
 3. Select "Cope me then paste into MS word" and paste the text into Mcrosoft Word
 
 
 
 II. Issue:
 -----------------
 When you select just the text in Safari, or some substring of it, it seems to also copy the table cell surrounding the text. Other browsers just copy the text.
 
 Note that if you copy the table or select all, you get the same behavior in all browsers.
 
 
 
 III. Other browsers:
 -----------------------
 IE7 : not working
 FF3 : ok
 Opera 9.27: ok
 
 IV. Safari nightly tested: version 3.1.1(525.17 )- r34388.
 
 Not working properly on Safari.
 
 
 
 V. Safari screenshot : Avalible

document.exccommand('copy') is not working in safari, all others browsers copy paste in word with format and styles it is working. this method is deprecated could you suggest alternative will support for safari.
