    javascript onclick copy to clipboard

    Hi,

    i have several links which i am trying to add an on click command to which copies a certain code to the clip board so the user can paste the code with out having to manually copy it first.

    i have this
    Code:
            $latest = simplexml_load_file('codes_ending_soon.xml');
        foreach ($latest->discount as $discount)
        {
            $code = $discount->id;
            $link = $discount->link;
            $store = $discount->storeName;
            $logo = $discount->logo;
            $details = $discount->details;
            if($code_count <=4)
            {?>
                <div class="code_cont">
                <div class="code_logo"><img src="<?php echo $logo?>" alt="<?php echo $store." code"?>" title="<?php echo $store." code"?>" height="32" /></div>
                <a class="code" href="<?php echo $link?>" title="Click to see related product(s) / retailer and apply code" onclick="window.clipboardData.setData(<?php echo $code?>)"><?php echo $code?></a>
                <div class="description"><?php echo $details?></div>
                </div><?php
                $code_count++;
            }
        }?>
    but when i click on the link nothing seems to copy at least in firefox anyway? can anyone help me please

    thanks
    Luke

    Copy to clip board using JavaScript

    This solution is that when they click on the textarea it highlights the entire area. They simply right click to copy

    Code:
    <html>
<head runat="server">
    <title>Untitled Page</title>

    <script type="text/javascript">
    
        function Select(ID)
        {
            var control = document.getElementById(ID);
            var length = control.value.length;
            if (control.createTextRange)
            {
                // IE
                var range = control.createTextRange();
                range.select();
            }
            else if (control.setSelectionRange)
            {
                // FF
                control.focus();
                control.setSelectionRange(0, length);
            }
            return;
        }
        
    </script>

</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <div>
            <textarea id="taCode" runat="server" cols="20" rows="10" readonly="readonly" style="overflow: scroll;
                overflow-y: scroll; overflow-x: hidden; overflow: -moz-scrollbars-vertical;">This is the text that I want to be able to copy</textarea>
        </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>
