Copy/Paste to Clipboard using radcontextmenu

[reguapo]

I have a radlistbox, and I want to let the user select multiple items and right click and then copy, and let the user use that copied item into for example Microsoft Word, Notepad, etc ... How can I accomplish this??

Hi reguapo,

Please have a look into the following code I tried which works fine at my end.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadListBox ID="RadListBox1" runat="server" SelectionMode="Multiple">
    <Items>
        <telerik:RadListBoxItem runat="server" Text="Item 1" />
        <telerik:RadListBoxItem runat="server" Text="Item 2" />
        <telerik:RadListBoxItem runat="server" Text="Item 3" />
    </Items>
</telerik:RadListBox>
<telerik:RadContextMenu ID="RadContextMenu1" runat="server" OnClientItemClicked="OnClientItemClicked">
    <Targets>
        <telerik:ContextMenuControlTarget ControlID="RadListBox1" />
    </Targets>
    <Items>
        <telerik:RadMenuItem runat="server" Text="Copy">
        </telerik:RadMenuItem>
    </Items>
</telerik:RadContextMenu>

 
JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientItemClicked(sender, args) {
        if (args.get_item().get_text() == "Copy") {
            var radlistbox = $find('<%=RadListBox1.ClientID %>');
            var selecteditems = radlistbox.get_selectedItems();
            var itemname = "";
            for (var counter = 0; counter < selecteditems.length; counter++) {
                itemname += selecteditems[counter].get_text() + " ";
            }
            if (window.clipboardData && clipboardData.setData) {
                clipboardData.setData("Text", itemname.toString());
            }
        }
    }
</script>

Thanks,
Shinu.
