Does anyone have or know where I can get code to copy the content in a text area (or a div?) to a the clients clipboard when the click a button or link to copy it?

From what I know, this will be very unreliable: it's possible to automate "select all", but "copy" will only work in a very limited set of browsers.
So test some and at least you'll be able to get select all, and maybe copy.

Well this is just for web site admin and to speed the process up so I think it should be fine for that.

the link above is a cross browser script, works on ie and firefox and maybe more browsers
