Re: Can anyone help me to copy the text to clipboard in a simple way and which works on all browsers

I'm using an implementation based on http://zeroclipboard.org/ [1]. ZeroClipboard is used by GitHub and should work on all modern browsers. My implementation is built using JsInterop and provides a subset of ZeroClipboard's API. It should be pretty easy to add more methods if you need them. 

Here's a sample how to use it:

Element button = Browser.getDocument().createButtonElement();
Clipboard clipboard = new Clipboard(button);
clipboard.onCopy(event -> event.client.setText("This text gets copied to the clipboard"));

Sorry Ed, I didn't work and even this is not what I need. I want to access the clipboard in the Chrome with some appropriate JSNI. The code I posted previously works for IE but fails on Chrome. Thanks.

Hi,

Try this:
                                 

                             final HTML CopyIcon = new HTML("Copy");
                                    CopyIcon.setStyleName("gwt-HTMLGreen");
                                    CopyIcon.setTitle("Drag and Drop");
                                    CopyIcon.getElement().setDraggable(Element.DRAGGABLE_TRUE);

                                    CopyIcon.addDomHandler(new DragStartHandler() {

                                        @Override
                                        public void onDragStart(DragStartEvent event) {

                                            event.setData("text/plain", YOURDATATOCOPY);

                                            event.getDataTransfer().setDragImage(CopyIcon.getElement(), 10, 10);

                                        }

                                    }, DragStartEvent.getType());

Hope this helps

Ed

        public static native void copyFrom(com.google.gwt.user.client.Element element) /*-{

  $wnd.window.clipboardData.setData('text', element.innerText);

}-*/;

public static native void pasteTo(com.google.gwt.user.client.Element element) /*-{

  $wnd.window.clipboardData.getData(element);

}-*/;

This code only works on IE and returns an exception on Chrome.

I need to process this event on a button click.
