clipboard_has_text

This function will return true if the clipboard contains text or false if it does not.

NOTE This function is only valid on the Windows, Android, MacOS, iOS, HTML5 and Opera GX targets. On HTML5, clipboards are not supported on Firefox without the use of an extension, and are not supported on Internet Explorer at all.

 

Syntax:

clipboard_has_text();

 

Returns:

Boolean

 

Example:

if (clipboard_has_text())
{
    str = clipboard_get_text();
    clipboard_set_text("");
}

The above code checks the clipboard for text and if it contains any, it is read as a string into the variable "str". Finally the clipboard is cleared by setting it to an empty string.
