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

No messing with the clipboards - can be done up nicer, much nicer, to have like the redirect message that is loading in the iframe show a saving message (though it should happen fast enough that most wont see it) etc.

If the user 404s - then they will never redirect to the showthread page, which means they will never get the framebuster - and they will still be sitting with their post in front of them - most probably would not even notice they 404ed just hit submit again, and watch it go through, never even thinking twice about it or realizing that normally they would be cussing right about then

this hack seems not be working in 3. 0. 7
Can you help to keep this working with new vb versions?

Thanks for the interesting mod, Zach (and also to Kentaurus). I installed both the one in the thread, and yours, since they both work together just fine.

By the way, why did you define the iframe to be 50px high? Is there a need for that? Can't it just be 1 px high?
