Hi David,
When I clicked on the link, IE 8 prompted to allow/not allow access to the
clipboard. When I allowed access, the data in my clipboard was displayed.
Good work,
John

Subject: [Blind-Computing] testing some scripting
Not too long ago somebody posted an address for a page to test if your
clip board was vulnerable or not. Well I took it upon myself to correct
some of the internal code on that page and post it on my own site. The
code displayed a warning message stating your clip board was accessed even
when it wasn't, so what I did was to make it show nothing when it couldn't
be accessed and show the contents of the clip board only when it was
accessed. It seems to be working as I want it to but if a couple of you
would test it out I would appreciate it.

Mind you what I know about that kind of scripting is quite limited but
figuring out somebody else's code is a lot easier than coming up with
something original. It is actually linked from a page that is labeled
something like clip board security or close to that any way. It is under
the internet heading on tips and tricks.
