Is there any way to write to the clipboard from javascript, on the android browser?

Question

Or am I going to have to write an app to do that??

This works in IE only:

window.clipboardData.setData('text',text);

Other than that, i've heard you can use Flash to mess with the clipboard, but I'm not sure why you would want to go to those lengths.

Yep, flash/as[2/3] interop is the way. – Warty Jul 28 '10 at 18:16
he asked for android, and as neither IE nor Flash run on an android device normaly, thats not a good answer. – theomega Jul 28 '10 at 18:16
Oops, reading comprehension failure on my part. My answer is "no" to the subject and "yes" to the second question. – Sparafusile Jul 29 '10 at 16:59
