How to copy/paste your password in PayPal's change password form

gistfile1.txt

PayPal blocks copy/paste actions in their "change password" form, 
citing some irrelevant security issues as the reason. That's a 
load of crap, and they know it -- disabling copy/paste makes it a 
lot harder to use a decent password generator and a lot easier to 
screw up your pwd when retyping, especially if it's a long one 
(as it should be!).

So, here's the quick'n'dirty way to use an externally generated 
password in your PayPal account:

* open the change password form;
* open up the console in your browser of choice (recent versions 
  of Firefox: CTRL+Shift+K, Chrome/Chromium: CTRL+Shift+J);
* you should see an input form at the bottom of the console; 
  copy/paste each of the following lines, replacing the string 
  "password" with your desired pwd and hitting enter after each 
  one:

  document.getElementById("new_password").value = "password";
  document.getElementById("retype_password").value = "password";

* close the console by pressing the relevant key combo once 
  again, submit the form & voilà!

this should work with all the ids:

var pw = "password";
if (pw.length < 8) { alert("Password too short!\nMin 8 chars!"); return; }
else if (pw.length > 20 { alert("Password too long!\nMax 20 chars!"); return; }
var ids = ["pwdID", "retype_password", "newPassword", "confirmNewPassword", "password", "retypepassword"];
var arrayLength = ids.length;
for (var i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++) {
    document.getElementById(ids[i]).value = pw;
}
document.getElementById("change_password").removeAttribute("disabled")
//document.getElementsByName("validatePwdForm")[0].submit();
