var textArea = document.createElement("textarea");
textArea.value = document.getElementById("touchMe").innerHTML;
textArea.style.position = "fixed";
document.body.appendChild(textArea);
textArea.focus();
textArea.select();
document.execCommand('copy');
document.body.removeChild(textArea);
Honestly, something like this might be a little bit better:
if (!copying) {
copying = true;
var textArea = document.createElement("textarea");
textArea.value = document.getElementById("touchMe").innerHTML;
textArea.style.position = "fixed";
document.body.appendChild(textArea);
textArea.focus();
textArea.select();
document.execCommand('copy');
var cleanUp = function() {
try {
document.body.removeChild(textArea);
} catch (error) {
}
clearInterval(interval);
copying = false;
};
var interval = setInterval(cleanUp, 6000);
}
