  • string to be copied - Required. What should be copied to the clipboard.
  • buttontext= - Optional. What the button says. Default is "Copy to clipboard".
  • style= - Optional. Set style=button for it to be a nice clean button, or style=link for the button to mimic a link. Note that it doesn't mimic links very well. Default is link.
