Use javascript:
//HTML
<script language="javascript">
function getClipBoardText() {
var t = window.clipboardData.getData("TEXT");
return t;
}
</script>
//FLASH
import mx.utils.Delegate;
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
function pasteClickHandler(evt:Object):Void {
var t:Object = ExternalInterface.call("getClipBoardText");
trace(t.toString());
}
paste_btn.addEventListener("click", Delegate.create(this, pasteClickHandler));
No idea which browsers it works/doesn't work in though.
Check google for "javascript clipboardData" or "javascript execCommand paste"
regards,
Muzak
