Copy to clipboard 2

[4x4uk]

I have a form with the following text area field, does anyone know how to get the form submit button to select all of the text in the textarea and copy it to the clipboard

<textarea name=&quot;item1&quot; rows=&quot;4&quot; cols=&quot;15&quot; >The stuff to copy</textarea>

Many thanks
Ian It's not a lie if you believe it!

Very interesting.

Is there any way to do the reverse? That is, display in a textarea the contents of the users clipboard. Clive

I believe from memory that was explained in the links from the thread I posted as well. _________________________________________________________
