Hello
Is there any way to copy formatted text to the system clipboard
ie I don't really want all the html / textformat tags
But I'd like to be able to copy formatted text out of textbox / textarea
I'm thinking that's not too easy - its either plain text, or textformat
tags?
Hoping I'm wrong
Google knows ;-)

When you load the XML, just append a random variable to the URL, like

cb just stands for cache buster, but it could be anything.
Without the tags, it's unformatted text. In other words, for the copy

AFAIK, any instances will remain in memory if there is a reference to it
anywhere. Even if you call the remove methods, they just remove them from
the Stage/screen but not from the memory stack. You will have to remove any
