How to copy text to clipboard?
How do I copy text to the clipboard? It's got to be IE and Firefox compatible.
I also searched on this one, but found a script that only supports IE.

Well, I've found an obscure FireFox work around. http://la.ma.la/misc/js/setclipboard.txt
Then you could just test which browser you're in, and run the appropriate script...
But I wouldn't be surprised if there was a simpler solution...

Re: How to copy text to clipboard?
There is no way of copying text to the clipboard in Firefox without using Flash or a plugin of some sort. Using JavaScript, you can create a Flash object with the parameters for what you want to copy. Then the Flash object will copy the text to the clipboard. You will need Flash Player installed on all machines that you want to utilize this code.

Well, I'll check out my photobucket because I just remembered they have some sort of "auto-copy" when you click the url of an image you want or IMG code.
EDIT: Looks like they got a flash object that does the work, eh... maybe I'll try something else, but thanks for the help.

Did you not check out the link in my post? The author of that blog shows a JavaScript + Flash solution and even has a link to the SWF necessary.

Re: How to copy text to clipboard?
First of all, what do you need this for?
Would copying the text to a temporal hidden field help?
Wanna install linux on a vacuum cleaner. Could anyone tell me which distro sucks better?
I had a nightmare last night. I was dreaming that I’m 64-bit and my blanket is 32-bit and I couldn’t cover myself with it, so I’ve spent the whole night freezing. And in the morning I find that my blanket just had fallen off the bed. =S (from: bash.org.ru)

Re: How to copy text to clipboard?
Sorry for not clarifying my post above this one.
Naw, i think i just wanted to do something better for a site, but I thought of a easier and more suitable solution that didn't require copying text.
