Copy Button

Is there a way I could make a link, text or image, so when someone clicks on it, it copys a code or whatever onto their clipboard?

Re: Copy Button

Nope. JavaScript would be you closest bet, but there aren't any ways to get a browser to interact with an operating system.

Re: Copy Button

The clipboard was invented as a paradigm-independent way for applications to share metadata. Who cares if you can read/write from it? There would be no way of determining from a malicious application what the read data applies to anyway. There are plenty of other scenarios that offer the same interoperability.
