clipboarddata

In my search for a Javascript way to programmatically select WebView content, I encountered this Javascript code snippet , which uses a method named setData() in a member named clipboardData in the window object. But when I tried to find documentation for it in a Javascript reference , clipboardData was nowhere to be found. Why?

Dumping it to

Not sure why this has been so difficult for me today, but for some reason I cannot seem to get it to copy the current URL to the clipboard. Overall, I'm looking for a way to do it without needing to create some hidden text elements. This is what I'm trying so far: var shareBtn = document.querySelector(".share-button"); shareBtn.addEventListener('click', function(event) { var cpLink = window.location.href; cpLink.select(); try { var successful = document.execCommand('copy'); var msg = successful ?

The following source states that this is not possible using pure JS, but I was thinking hoping that the chrome API would make it possible. (I am developing a chrome extension). How to read clipboard data in cross browser? There is a clipboardRead permission, which would lead you to believe that it is possible, but it's description is just: Required if the extension or app uses document.execCommand('paste'). source To clarify: I am not trying to copy data to the clipboard or paste data from it.

I was actually looking to get the content of clipboard using angular JS to simulate a copy paste thing. I created a directive for copy to clipboard which is using the document.execCommand() method.
