I am using the following code, by Eric, to copy a string to the clipboard.
I call " gdeSaveToClipboard(...)" shown below, with the appropriate
argument, to copy a string to the clipboard.
If I called this function multiple times within the tiddler, it only copies
the string passed to the last call and ignores the rest.
Is there a way to make this work for copying multiple strings to the
clipboard? For example, right now, I am using it for copying the name of
the tiddler created to the clipboard. I would like to copy the name of the
tiddler as well as the time it was created separately to the clipboard.
(In case you wonder, I have freeware utility called "Ditto" that let me
access multiple items from the clipboard on Windows.)
Thank you for your help.
Cheers; 'best,

function gdeSaveToClipboard(textToCopy) {
function copy(out) {
//alert("Copied: " + textToCopy);
if(window.Components) { // FIREFOX
netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege('UniversalXPConnect');
var id='@mozilla.org/widget/clipboardhelper;1';
var
clip=Components.classes[id].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIClipboardHelper);
clip.copyString(out);
} else if(window.clipboardData) { // IE
window.clipboardData.setData('text',out);
} else if(document.execCommand) { // CHROME, SAFARI, IE6
var ta=document.createElement('textarea');
ta.style.position='absolute';
ta.style.left='-100%';
document.body.appendChild(ta);
ta.value=out; ta.select();
document.execCommand('Copy',false,null);
document.body.removeChild(ta);
} else throw('cannot access clipboard');
}
try { copy(textToCopy); }
catch(e) { // FALLBACK
alert('Copy to clipboard() failed - please copy the text
manually.');
}
}
