Hi,

thanks for looking into this, but I don't understand what exactly your
code does.

There is already this function:

function copyToClipboard(str)
{
    var clipboardHelper = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/widget/clipboardhelper;1"]
        .getService(Components.interfaces.nsIClipboardHelper);
    clipboardHelper.copyString(str);
}

Why not use this, instead of your complicated clipthis() function?
