title: copy an element as HTML to clipboard
body: <p>I've managed to write some jQuery to find an element and copy it's html to the clipboard (ie only).</p>
  
  <p>The problem is that when I paste this into a rich text box area in sharepoint it pastes the HTML as text only. </p>
  
  <p>How do i replicate the user action of highlighting a link on a page and pressing copy. When I do this manually and then paste the clipboard contents the rich text area realises that it is markup and replicates the link as an anchor in the text content.</p>
