How to copy to the clipboard in JavaScript?

I need one help regards JavaScript. I used this script in asp.net website.

    <script type="text/javascript">
        function CopyToClip() {
            var imgControl = document.getElementById('imageControlWithImageToCopy');
            imgControl.contentEditable = 'true';
            var controlRange;

            if (document.body.createControlRange) {
                controlRange = document.body.createControlRange();
                controlRange.addElement(imgControl);
                controlRange.execCommand('Copy');
            }
            imgControl.contentEditable = 'false';
            return true;
        }
    </script>

This code for copying image (which is in an image control) to clipboard and it works fine in IE.

But this script is not working in Firefox & Chrome.

Please suggest any good solution to work in Firefox & Chrome

Sorry, but you can’t copy stuff into the clipboard in Chrome or Firefox. Internet Explorer has a small hole that lets you do this, but it’s the pretty much the only browser that supports that type of functionality any more.

There’s a Flash hack to make this possible, but that’s only for text, sorry.
