hi all,
i have a java app sitting on a solaris box and am using a windows machine to use the application i.e from a web browser. i wanetd to know if there is a way to load any content displayed in the browser to the local windows machines clipboard ??

have looked at the awt package and the "getSystemClipboard" doesnt seem to be working since it returns the solaris boxes clipboard.

thanks in advance.

You would have to do this using JavaScript since it would have to execute in the client's browser - not Java.
