A tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, effectuate a first set of operations comprising:
- receiving, with a computer system, via a network, a request from a web browser executing on a client computing device;
- and
- causing, with the computer system, browser-executable code to be sent to the web browser, wherein the browser-executable code is configured to effectuate a second set of operations comprising:
- displaying, with the web browser:
- a unit of content that is associated with a user-presentable code, and
- a user-selectable region associated with the user-presentable code;
- and
- receiving, with the web browser, a user selection of the user-selectable region and, in response, causing the user-presentable code to be copied to clipboard memory of the client computing device without using a flash object to copy the user-presentable code to the clipboard memory.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, effectuate a first set of operations comprising:
- receiving, from a client computing device, with a server system, one or more requests for information related to a coupon;
- and
- causing, in response to the one or more requests, browser-executable code to be sent to the client computing device, wherein the browser-executable code is configured to cause a browser application at the client computing device to effectuate a second set of operations comprising:
- displaying a representation of the coupon in a web page;
- receiving an input from the user;
- after receiving the input, copying a coupon code associated with the coupon from within a secure sandbox of the browser application to a clipboard memory of the client computing device, wherein copying is performed without using a flash object.
A tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, effectuate a first set of operations comprising:
- receiving, via a network, a request from a web browser executing on a client computing device;
- and
- causing browser-executable code to be sent to the web browser, wherein the browser-executable code is configured to effectuate a second set of operations comprising:
- displaying, with the web browser:
- content descriptive of a coupon, wherein the coupon is associated with a coupon code, and
- a user-selectable region associated with the coupon;
- and
- receiving, with the web browser, a user selection of the user-selectable region and, in response, causing the coupon code to be copied to clipboard memory of the client computing device without using a flash object to copy the coupon code to the clipboard memory.
A method, comprising:
- receiving, with a server system, a request from a web browser executing on a client computing device;
- and
- causing browser-executable code to be sent to the web browser, wherein the browser-executable code is configured to effectuate operations comprising:
- displaying, with the web browser:
- content descriptive of a coupon, wherein the coupon is associated with a coupon code, and
- a user-selectable region associated with the coupon;
- and
- receiving, with the web browser, a user selection of the user-selectable region and, in response, causing the coupon code to be copied to clipboard memory of the client computing device without using a flash object to copy the coupon code to the clipboard memory.
