Also, it IS possible to reposition a clip which was glued to a div/span (as opposed to what the developer’s intructions say). All you have to do is create a global javascript var (I’ll call it “c”) at the start of your page code, then copy the object reference to this global var after you create the zeroclip client, like this:

var clip = new ZeroClipboard.Client();
c1 = clip;

Then, just call a function when the user resizes the browser window, simplest option would be putting the reposition function call in the

The function would look something like this:

function repos(){
c.destroy(); //global var "c" references clip instance, calls its destroy method
var clip = new ZeroClipboard.Client(); //creates new zeroclip client/object/instance
clip.addEventListener('mousedown',function() {
clip.setText("text string you want to copy to clipboard");
});
clip.glue("id of whatever you want to glue this zeroclip client to");
c = clip; //updates "c" to reference the newly created zeroclip client
}

This way the flash client is always being referenced by a global var, and with the destroy+(re)create+glue again function being called everytime the user resizes his browser window, you can glue it to a or without any problem.

I’ve implemented this into an AJAX page, for dynamically generated pages you’d just have to check if whatever control “c” references still exists before doing the destroy+recreate function, or just empty the variable after destroying it and check if it’s empty before the destroy+recreate function etc., it’s not complicated. Hope this helps. =]

The DOM loads some clip client and some text but I have no idea how to fix this.
Clicking the button nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Why can’t we have a similar “Window.Copy()” method.????

Or perhaps I should use a “Save as…” facility for the page,
and then have them email that saved file as an attachment.

Any thoughts or suggestions ?
