ZeroClipboard
==============
The ZeroClipboard library provides an easy way to copy text to the clipboard using an invisible [Adobe Flash](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Flash) movie, and a [JavaScript](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript) interface. The "Zero" signifies that the library is invisible and the user interface is left entirely up to you.
## Simple Example
``` html
```
``` js
// main.js
ZeroClipboard.setMoviePath("/path/to/ZeroClipboard.swf");
var clip = new ZeroClipboard.Client("#copy-button");
clip.on( 'load', function(client) {
// alert( "movie is loaded" );
} );
clip.on( 'complete', function(client, args) {
this.style.display = 'none'; // "this" is the element that was clicked
alert("Copied text to clipboard: " + args.text );
} );
clip.on( 'mouseover', function(client) {
// alert("mouse over");
} );
clip.on( 'mouseout', function(client) {
// alert("mouse out");
} );
clip.on( 'mousedown', function(client) {
// alert("mouse down");
} );
clip.on( 'mouseup', function(client) {
// alert("mouse up");
} );
```
See the [instructions](ZeroClipboard/blob/master/docs/instructions.md) for advanced instructions on how to use the library on your site.
Here is a working [test page](http://jonrohan.github.com/ZeroClipboard/#demo) where you can try out ZeroClipboard in your browser.
## Testing ZeroClipboard.swf Locally
To test the page [demo page](http://jonrohan.github.com/ZeroClipboard/#demo) locally. checkout the `gh-pages` branch and run `make`. This should open [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000/)
```
git co gh-pages
make
```
add `BRANCH=my-dev-branch` to get the assets from a certain branch
```
git co gh-pages
make BRANCH=my-dev-branch
```
## Support
This library is fully compatible with Flash Player 10, which requires that the clipboard copy operation be initiated by a user click event inside the Flash movie. This is achieved by automatically floating the invisible movie on top of a [DOM](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Object_Model) element of your choice. Standard mouse events are even propagated out to your DOM element, so you can still have rollover and mouse down effects.
Works in IE8+. Works in IE7 but requires Sizzle/jQuery. (And of course works in all of the other browsers.)
