I'm looking for a javascript that will allow one to click a button and copy the text the user's highlighted to the clipboard. I've found a javascript for IE for this but not one that works for both IE and FF.

Any suggestions?

Jeremy,

Thanks. That's a very useful link. It looks like it will help achieve my goals. I need to read it a bit more carefully and then post a project to find someone who can help me implement it. It's a bit too complicated for me.

Thanks again,

Andrew

For follow-up - I commissioned the creation/adaptation of a javascript that does copy to clipboard perfectly in IE, FF, and Safari. Doesn't work in Opera. If anyone's in need of this, please contact me by PM.
