Pasting into input text in HTML5 target

Hi all,

Looking here :
Re: Copy/Pasting strings to/from clipboard on HTML5 target

And trying to implement I have no success in get data from the clipboard into an FlxInputText.

As the post is quite old, has anybody some hints / piece of code to share ?

Cheers.

Ok after loosing hairs with openfl or lime api and being unsuccesfull.
Here is a pure html5 workaround (for some that would stumble upon this post)

// some were in your state initialisation
var myInput = new FlxUIInputText();

#if js
//import js.Browser;
//import js.html.Clipboard;
//import js.html.ClipboardEvent;
Browser.document.addEventListener("copy", onCopy);
Browser.document.addEventListener("paste", onPaste);
#elseif flash
//Use Clipboard.generalClipboard
#end
add( myInput );

then the listeners

function onPaste(e: ClipboardEvent):Void 
{
    myInput.text = e.clipboardData.getData("text/plain");
}
function onCopy(e: ClipboardEvent):Void 
{
    Browser.navigator.clipboard.writeText(myInput.text);
}
