<script src="/path/to/JQlipboard.js"></script>

2. Copy any content to the clipboard.

// "Copied!" is copied
$.copy( "Copied!" ) 

// "1234" is copied
$.copy( 1234 ) 

// "false" is copied
$.copy( false ) 

// '{"hello":"world"}' is copied
$.copy( {hello: "world"} ) 

// "2021-01-01T05:00:00.000Z" is copied
$.copy( new Date("1/1/2021") ) 

// "<div>Hello World</div>" is copied
$.copy( document.querySelector("div") ) 

// "12345678901234567890" is copied
$.copy( 12345678901234567890n ) 

// "Hello World" is copied
$.copy( {toString: function(){return "Hello World"} ) 

3. Or copy text within a container element.

<div id="demo">This text will be coppied</div>

$( '#demo' ).copy();

4. Cut selected text to clipboard.

// select
$( "input" ).select();

// cut
$.cut();

5. Cut text within an element to clipboard and remove the element

// cut
$( ".element" ).cut();
