Copying text from a field

Hi

I have text displayed in a text field and need it to be copy-able to a user's clipboard.

 

When the text on the web page field is selected, right-click and copy doesn't work. The only way is to select it and use cmd/ctrl-C, which many casual users would not know.

 

I then thought to use a script trigger to use the Copy[select] command. But this doesn't appear to work at all in WebDirect.

 

Any suggestions?

 

This, by the way is related to my other post on using a URL stored in a text field.

 

David
