I need to copy a readonly textarea's content to the clipboard on click in the popup. Does anyone know the best way to go about this with pure Javascript and no Flash? I also have jQuery loaded in the extension, if that helps any. My current (non-working) code is...

Due to the fast append-select-copy-remove sequence, it doesn't seem to be necessary to hide the textarea or give it any particular CSS/attributes. At least on my machine, Chrome doesn't even render it to screen before it's removed, even with very large chunks of text.

Note that this will only work within a Chrome extension/app. If you're using a v2 manifest.json you should declare the 'clipboardWrite' permission there; this is mandatory for apps and recommended for extensions.

You can't copy a read only bit of text using execCommand("Copy"), it has to be an editable text area. The solution is to create a text input element and copy the text from there. Unfortunately you can't hide that element using display: none or visibility: hidden as that will also stop the select/copy command from working. However, you can 'hide' it using negative margins. Here's what I did in a Chrome Extension popup that obtains a short url. This is the bit of the code that re-writes the popup window with the shorturl (quick and dirty approach ;-)):

I read somewhere that there are security restrictions with Javascript that stops you from interacting with the OS. I've had good success with ZeroClipboard in the past ( ), but it does use Flash. The Bitly website uses it quite effectively:

I had a similar problem where I had to copy text from an element using only javascript. I'll add the solution to that problem here for anyone interested. This solution works for many HTML elements, including textarea.

I'm trying to create a chrome extension that would copy data straight into the clipboard on button click, but I couldn't find any relevant info regarding this; tried a lot of stuff from different threads around here.

I'm trying to paste clipboard data into a textarea using execcommand("paste") with a chome extension, but i cannot seem to get it to work. permissions are set. I have tried to set focus() on the textarea, but document.execCommand("paste") does nothing, and I get no error.calling execcommand("paste") from background page also does nothing.

I'm using jQuery for simplicity but you get the idea. Now any time I want to use the clipboard functionality I simply call the relevant function. Other pages in my extension can access this API via chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage() but you can also use chrome.runtime.getBackgroundPage(callback) if your background page is an event page.

This is too long for a comment on Alasdair's excellent response, so I'm creating another answer. Alasdair's answer is excellent and worked great for me, but as a newcomer to Chrome extensions it still took me a while to get it working. For anyone in a similar position, here is an expansion on his answer.

Background/event pages are able to interact with the system clipboard, provided you've requested the appropriate permissions. They are not able to interact with the DOM of pages the user has loaded. Content scripts cannot interact with the system clipboard, but they can interact with the DOM of pages the user has loaded. Take a look at the explanation of the extension architecture for a good overview of all this.

This essentially means you need to do the copy/paste actions from the system clipboard in your event/background pages, which is what Alasdair has outlined above. Any pasting or copying from the DOM of the page the user is viewing has to occur in your content script. The two scripts are able to communicate pretty easily with message passing.

I have an extension whose only purpose is to paste, and the architecture came largely from this post. If you want to see the above technique in practice, take a look at the code. In particular, background.html, background.js, and contentscript.js.

I've been having a bit of a problem with the Adobe Acrobat extension for Chrome. Whenever I copy text from a PDF using the extension and then paste it somewhere else, the spaces between words aren't being copied over. This means all the words get squished together, making it really hard to read.

Thank you for sharing this extension snippet. Unfortunately, it seems that the popclip.context.browserUrl feature does not work with the ARC Browser. I tried using the provided extension snippet, and while it works perfectly with other supported browsers, it does not fetch the URL when using ARC Browser.

Unfortunately, unlike Chrome, Safari and some other browsers, Arc does not offer an AppleScript interface that allows PopClip to find out the URL of the current foreground tab. If Arc were to add a suitable interface then I could add support for it in PopClip.

I want to to avoid using the mouse at most instances, so I want to highlight text on a web page by only using the keyboard instead. I want for the text to be automatically saved into the buffer similar to mouse selection, yet even then being able to ctr+c without selecting text with the mouse would be fine.

The only way I could find to move the selection cursor is using find to highlight the first word of the text you want to copy, press Ctrl + F, type your word, to highlight it in the page and press ESC to leave find then use the Shift plus arrows to highlight the rest.

@Melissa Smith hmm that seems strange. do you have any chrome extensions that could be impacting that? I'm not seeing this issue on my end. I'm on Chrome Version 120.0.6099.71 (Official Build) (arm64)

I'm honestly not sure - I haven't downloaded any recently. I was literally copying and pasting from cards one minute, then I relaunched chrome to apply the month's updates, and suddenly now I can't copy anything anymore. I can from Safari, but I don't like using Safari...

I'm looking for a Chrome extension that will copy both the URL and title of the current page to the clipboard. It should copy both the title and URL in the form of Rich Text Format. The title is the "Text to display" and the URL is the "Address". Ideally this would happen when you press Ctrl+c without anything selected.

Let's consider that I've pressed Ctrl+c without anything selected. And I've went to MS Word and pressed Ctrl+v. The result should be: Page 01 Title. As you see it's a single line Rich Text Format hyperlink with Text to display: Page 01 Title and Address:

It looks like none of these suggestions do what the OP is asking for: Put a rich text link in your clipboard. Instead, they put plain text in the clipboard, formatted in a variety of ways (HTML, BB, Markdown, text, etc).

I've been looking for something similar and haven't found it. For what it's worth, the best one of these "grab the title and URL" extensions that I've come across is TabCopy. It's nice and clean and simple, supports 8 different formats including HTML and Markdown, and supports custom formats. Even better: You run it by clicking or double-clicking an icon in the right side of the location bar (click once for this tab, twice for all tabs).

This came out of the box with Edge browser on Windows 10, and I miss it very much. So far, the Chrome extension that came the closest is GitHub - Leksyk/chrome-copy-link: Chrome extension to copy current page url and title as a rich text link, however it has a couple drawbacks:

When you fill using a Login item it doesn't use the operating system clipboard, instead injecting directly into the field. As far as I can tell the precise permissions being requested are clipboardRead and clipboardWrite based on the text you provided and if so the extension can't use directly these to sniff on 1Password.

With that said, every extension has access to the page that is open. This means you should always be careful of what extensions you have installed as this is something any extension can do without asking for permission. Sadly it means instead of worrying about extensions with the permission you're asking about you really need to worry about any extension you install.

You are correct on both counts. Any installed extension can "see" what our extension does to the fields on the page. Other extensions won't be able to see your vault in any sense, just like even our own extension does not but a malicious extension could over time learn a lot. This is of course true regardless of whether you use 1Password or not.

The copy feature in 1Password does use the clipboard so the contents would be accessible to this extension. Now there could well be limitations on the extension. Even though it seems it can read and write it probably cannot tell when the clipboard contents change without constant requests. It would seem more likely that a well behaved extension would probably only look at the contents when you attempt to use the extension but I say this without any knowledge or experience of the extension in question. 152ee80cbc
