Clipboard functions

Clipboard functions are related to cutting, copying, and pasting. On the Macintosh, some

Clipboard functions can also apply to text fields in dialog boxes and floating panels. Functions

that can operate in text fields are implemented as methods of the

dreamweaver object and as

methods of the DOM object. The

dreamweaver version of the function operates on the

selection in the active window: the current Document window, the Code inspector, or the Site

panel. On the Macintosh, the function can also operate on the selection in a text box if it is

the current field. The DOM version of the function always operates on the selection in the

specified document.
