When a user selects a part of the page with styled texts and images, it is possible to copy all that content (with images and styles) and paste it to MS Word or to an e-mail client by clicking “Copy” in the context menu.
How is it possible to achieve the same result with javascript?
So far, I have found solutions to copy plain text only or by using the depreciated document.execCommand("copy") command.
Is there a solution that works for all modern browsers, including Firefox?
If such a function cannot be implemented for security reasons or whatever, could someone please explain why exactly? Because users copy content all the time, why it cannot be done with Javascript?
