<div class="tooltip">
<button onclick="myFunction()" onmouseout="outFunc()">
<span class="tooltiptext" id="myTooltip">Copy to clipboard</span>
Copy text
</button>
</div>
Step 2) Add JavaScript:
<script>
function myFunction() {
var copyText = document.getElementById("myInput");
copyText.select();
copyText.setSelectionRange(0, 99999);
navigator.clipboard.writeText(copyText.value);
var tooltip = document.getElementById("myTooltip");
tooltip.innerHTML = "Copied: " + copyText.value;
}
function outFunc() {
var tooltip = document.getElementById("myTooltip");
tooltip.innerHTML = "Copy to clipboard";
}
</script>
