copy/paste/select all text button

[webnews]

Hey

I am trying to make these buttons.
1: Copy text i text felt
2: paste text
3: select all text

I have made the select all text, but I don´t know how to make the copy and paste buttons..

Here is my select all script.

// my text felt is called txt_felt, and this script is put on a button
on(release){
Selection.setFocus("_root.txt_felt");
} 

PLEASE help.

This will help you solve your problem:
Add this to your button:

on (release) {
	this.onEnterFrame = function() {
		System.setClipboard(_root.txt_felt);
	};

The "System.setClipboard();" sets the clip board to whatever is inside the _root.txt_felt text box.

Hopefully this will solve your problem.
The full code for your button is below:

on(release){ 
Selection.setFocus("_root.txt_felt"); 
} 
on (release) {
	this.onEnterFrame = function() {
		System.setClipboard(_root.txt_felt);
	};
}

(P.S. I'm new here but I've had flash for a while and I stumbled upon this awesome website).

Try putting these actions into a button that will, select, then copy and paste whatever is inside your "_root.txt_felt" textbox.

on(release){ 
Selection.setFocus("_root.txt_felt");
this.onEnterFrame = function() {	
System.setClipboard(_root.txt_felt);
	};
}

Sorry, but I'm using my laptop right now (doesn't have flash) and it's really late. Tomorrow if I don't forget, I will post a .fla for you to take a look at.

C ya for now.

(Also, i haven't tried this yet, but the button above only selects and copies; it doesn't paste. I'm pretty much stumped on how to make a paste button. I'm also not sure why you would need one in flash because I would only find use for a copy/select button for either a dynamic or input text box). If I find out how to make a paste button, I will post here.)
