Copy Javascript variable to the clipboard

Hi!

I’m trying to copy a Javascript variable to the clipboard. I’m trying to copy a link to the clipboard when clicking on the link. I’m using the execCommand(“copy”), but it won’t work. I’ve only seen examples where it copies a selection into the clipboard.

The link:


<a href="" onclick="javascript:copyImage(This is a small test!!!')">Link</a>

The javascript :


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function copyImage(strFile){
var temp = strFile;
temp.execCommand("Copy");
}
</SCRIPT>

Any suggestions?
