Looking at my pages on preventing the Context Menu and the oncopy Event I see that I still need to clear the Windows (and probably other OS's) clipboard.

Clipboard API: The navigator.clipboard.writeText('') writes an empty string to the clipboard, effectively clearing it.
To clear the clipboard using HTML and JavaScript, you can use the Clipboard API. Here's an example:
Explanation:
1. Button: A button is provided for the user to trigger the clipboard clearing action.
2. Clipboard API: The navigator.clipboard.writeText('') writes an empty string to the clipboard, effectively clearing it.
3. Error Handling: If the operation fails (e.g., due to browser restrictions), an error message is logged, and the user is notified.
This approach works in modern browsers that support the Clipboard API. If you're testing this locally, ensure the page is served over HTTPS, as clipboard operations often require a secure context.
Clipboard API
The Clipboard API provides the ability to respond to clipboard commands (cut, copy, and paste), as well as to asynchronously read from and write to the system clipboard.
