After posting automatically copy to clipboard

Oh no! I just finished writting that long long post and the page didn't load.
I wish I would have made a copy in notepad. Too late for that.
I won't write it again.

After hearing that a couple hundred times I wrote this hack. When using Internet Explorer once you submit your post it is copied to the clipboard, meaning that if the page doesn't load then you just press back in your browser, paste, and submit it again. Since most of us users forget to do a backup copy just in case this comes in handy.

(screenshots?) I don't know how I would take screenshots for that.

for IE, only for WYSIWYG

Info for hackers:
You may modify, improve, upgrade, redistribute this hack, include it
in another hack or yours or translate it provided you do it free of
charge and you distribute it in www.vbulletin.org at least, there is no
need to pm me asking for permission

hum.. is it only IE that can't keep textarea content in cache ?!

usually, anywhere i go, i can post and press back, the content is again in the field... even if i visited 3 or 4 pages after that, i just go back and the content is there...

Nice :)
Could you make it so it does also work for the standard editor?

He is using the java script code for the WYSIWYG so i don't think this can be done with the standerd one, unless you make it so you have to click something before you send it.

I could be wrong.

I think I got it working for the standard editor:

In vbulletin_stdedit.js FIND

PHP Code:


		
			
function validatePost(tform, subjectVal, minLength, maxLength)

{

    return validatemessage(tform.message.value, subjectVal, minLength, maxLength, false, tform);

}

REPLACE that with

Code:

function validatePost(tform, subjectVal, minLength, maxLength)

{

        postOK = validatemessage(tform.message.value, subjectVal, minLength, maxLength, false, tform);

        if ((postOK == true) & is_ie) {

          Copied = tform.message.createTextRange();

          Copied.execCommand("Copy");

        }

        return postOK;

}

This might bemoce a very useful feature for poor IE users ;)

Thanks for your code KirbyDE, it seems really useful. Do you mind if I add it to the hack?

I didn't modify the standard editor because the copy function is dhtml only used in wysiwyg. And sometimes users prefer the standard editor because the dhtml breaks their explorer (rare cases).

Feel free to add it :)

I also prefer the standard-editor, as the WYSIWYG-editor sometimes just does what he wants and not what I want ^.^
