Now, this was easy enough with ZeroClipboard, but once I tried mixing it with jQuery and making multiple clipboards, stuff got messy. So, in the spirit of cleaner code, I started a new project to make the use of ZeroClipboard easier with jQuery. So, you can check out my project over at github (Link).

Basic usage of the script goes along the lines of

$(‘selector’).zeroclipboard({text: ‘This is the text to copy!’});

Thats it! You use the same method to update text and any other options, or to destroy the flash object. Also, when the .remove() is called on element the clipboard is bound to, it removes the zeroclipboard automagically. Also, any mouse events on the element select are emulated when they are preformed on the flash object.

Read the entry on github for more information, but I am trying to make clipboards as easy and painless as possible. The only problem is the use of external libraries, which I would like to minimize, but right now they work good with the script.

Recently, I hit the point where its basic function, getting images on the web, is working. The site offers to keep your photos online forever with no limits, as long as the images are legal in the United States. I hope to add more features with the login, such as making thumbnails and possibly adding a folder structure and API for veiwing images.

But, since it works very well, I decided to release it for anyone to use. What can it do?

  • Add a tooltip, or comment, to any DOM object or just using coords
  • Add it to one or multiple objects
  • Have it removed after a certain amount of time, or when an event happens to the parent of the comment
  • Choose how to position them

Tested Browsers: IE6+, Firefox 1.5+, Safari 4, and Google Chrome 1.0 (All on Windows).

For a full explaination, just go over to the [jQuery Tooltips Site]
