Do you mean that you're getting the source html as a result ? That's what I get, and I get this too for non-CJK text, e.g. even if I select the above comment and drag it into writer I get the <pre> tag and so on

So checking firefox-2.0.0.12-1.fc8 vs firefox-3.0-0.beta2.18.nightly20080210.fc9.i386 with the same OOo and I see that it works with the old firefox and not the new. In either case cut and paste works, it is just in the case of drag and drop that the difference appears. Looking at the data transferred I can see that for drag and drop the text *used* to be prefixed with the UCS BOMS for little endian 16byte unicode in the drag and drop case, but no longer does while it continues to prefix with the BOM for cut and paste.
