Hi all, I want to know where can I find clipboard tool in my browsers. Mozilla, Chrome, IE. Every time I use the copy to clipboard link in most of the sites it says "Copied to clipboard". When I try to do ctrl+v it does not paste the copied code.

In Ms-word whenever I do a copy it will be added to the clipboard tool in it. Is there any such tool in browsers?

And i would like to know how to implement the copy to clipboard functionality.

Thank you all in advance. Good day.

Problem is most browsers have the ability to copy to the clipboard disabled in the browser's settings. This is done for security so developers can not just override what is on it when they come to your site and they can not read it.

So if it is your computer, you can enable it in the browser settings. If you want to do it for other applications, you need to use flash to copy contents to the clipboard.
