With this test code I can access images pasted to the site
document.onpaste = function (event) {
var items = (event.clipboardData || event.originalEvent.clipboardData).items;
for (index in items)
{
var item = items[index];
console.log(item);
console.log("________");
}
}
but when I copy file from file system 
then it isn't being caught
how can I catch e.g gifs too?
