Greetings Techarena Folksters- -(for the most part, if you wish, you ca
scroll straight to "the burning question" below- i *do* ramble somewha
and in the words of Ovid (i think) "de gustibus non est disputandum")-

I've read what must be about 100 threads across about 30-4
tech forums regards this issue i have and your forum (although no
giving me a direct answer) seems to me the most logically set out an
helpfull of the 30-40 or so i've scanned; hence my giving you my emai
address *chuckle*.

I've seen alot of folk asking this question i have in similar terms bu
without (or so i think) giving good and proper reasons for thei
needs/requirements. As such, due to this seemingly inherant reluctanc
to properly outline the problem i can find no complete and definativ
answer, i digress, and once you hear my question you'll know why. Wha
is:- the need to erase something from the clipboard? LOL.

*My Dilema*- I'm an avid writer and more often than not some of m
creativity bleeds over into my social networking life; tonight was on
such night. My sweetheart is so very far away and very much alone in
dire predicament and all in this - the season of goodwill. One of th
only certainties she has in the universe just now are my words o
encouragement and somewhat poetic adorations. As perceptively little o
large as this may or may not seem to a stranger on a forum *sigh* it i
all we have just now.
What have i done? Heh. Well...i spent around abouts 3 hours typing ou
my undieing unending love for her, proclaiming that it would not matte
how long our situation took to resolve and regardless of how man
seasons will pass until our love for one another can be expresse
legally. Yes, she is married and yes, we are both very much fir
believers in marriage vows and although neither of us are reall
religious and thus are unconcerned with speculative judgements fro
ectoplasmic entities we both believe that what is joined in law mus
only be unjoined by the same ie. Divorce.
Did i digress again? Ah well, saves me an "introduce yourself" post
guess!?
So, again, what did i do? Facebook decided not to tell everyone (as pe
flipperty usual) that java had been updated (or so i understand) and s
my -certainly nigh on- 1000 letter love note to her would not send (a
java was not working). Being something of a comp nerd i spotted th
problem was java immediately (looking to the top of the page reveale
that the status change box did not have a 'post' button and all th
'comment' links simply sent firefox into perpetual ask/ignore mode lo
e.g. xxxx is trying to contact...xxxx is not responding....xxxx i
trying to contact etc etc. Java, sure as eggs is buffer overflow payloa
jargon referring (mostly but not exclusively) to the binary coding o
format string attacks. Next move? New tab and sunsystems java checker t
confirm my suspicions. Yep, i'm runnng an inferior version on both F
and IE. Bummer. Selecting all of the wonderous words of devotion
support and undieing admiration for my loved one i dutifully hit ctrl+c
seemingly safe in the knowledge that once java was updated i coul
ctrl+v in the newly functional, javaly updated, chatboxness. How di
stupidy goo get boohoo? I thought i'd save myself some time and check I
too- in absolute adverse ignorance in spite of all my windows knowy-ho
i selected the sunsystems java checker addy in FF browser bar an
did.........yep. Ctrl+c. Close FF, open IE, ctrl+v in the browser ba
and off we go getting IE java checked. All good which was comfortin
since on the previous java platform updates i remember having to updat
IE and FF seperately. Once more (as i have OFTEN done much to th
disagreement of most of my peer group) i pat Vista™ on it's Silverligh
and glow warmly in the knowledge that i was right to upgrade despit
everyone i know having idiot problems with Vista™ regards operationa
permissions. Although admittedly digressing a third time i would tak
joy in extrapolating thusly- if a person has no idea why disablin
Vista™'s Administrative constraints renders obsolete almost 75% o
questions posed on forums such as this well, i'm afraid in my humble and
irreducible opinion, person should NOT be using Vista™ or at the very
least should not be attempting to do what it is that Vista™'s all
powerful admin hammer is telling person they possibly ought not to be
doing....
....for almost exactly a year now i've been defending Vista™ tooth and
nail, teaching those i deem worthy to look after their Vista™ install
without the need for admin related failed installs, apps which won't run
and heheh- i'm sure i don't need to be telling you guys and gals! While
simultaneously showing off, at every opportunity, such delights as
widescreen, fully 3dimensionally immersed, realtime space battles in
Star Wars Empires At War + super-responsive, intelligent polygon physics
in Force Unleashed on my wall mounted flatscreen; not to mention every
silverlight news snippet/demo released (from the sublimely simplistic 3D
window browser few realise the potential of to the ever so cute
Silverlight based city builder on Facebook, yes..it's true, it's real
and it works heh, if you like the person who's silverlight enhanced city
you are visiting you can add a scientist or a cognition engineer or or
or even a hairdresser and if you don't like them you can add a polish
vodka distiller or a cultist; if you are really bummed by said person
you can add such maladjusts as hookers, serial killers and insane
geneticists. Fun.) Much digressing.... wonderful Vista™, yes. Until
now.

I quickly realised on returning to the original FF window (now leaving
javatest and rushing it's way to facebook and my inbox to reply to my
sweetheart, remember? heheh) that i'd copy/pasted the sunsystems test
addy thus consigning 1000-/+ words of sublime and soul warming
loveliness to the deeper recesses (or so i thought) of my machine. Ergh
me says to meself, yer a dullard at times...but just how much eh? Hmmm.
Immediately i did what i would've done on XP: *Start > Run >
clipbrd.exe*. You guys and gals i expect are at this stage totally ahead
of me ain't ya? There's no such thing is there? Clipboard history is (or
so it seems) not a part of Windows Vista™.

The crunch is this- does anyone know of *ANY WAY AT ALL* to recover the
lost literature? From reading many many other odd requests for help
regards Vista™ clipboard history, clearing of such and accessing through
the .exe i've come to the conclusion that clipboard has had it's
functionality so much nerfed that it is no longer possible to access
it's history. Bad Vista™!! Naughty Vista™!!! Even if i copy clipbrd.exe
from sys32 on my old XP machine i'm not even mildly convinced i'll
magically find my 3-4 pages of romantic meanderings eagerly awaiting my
loading up of such; in short, i'm quite certain, clipboard is not the
answer.

What i'm now wondering, -and hoping you've at least enjoyed this post
as much as i've enjoyed composing it-; wondering wondering....see, i
pressed "send" on my browser once i'd finished writing to my sweetheart
and left it for quite some amount of time before (firstly, obviously)
checking my connection since facebook was refusing my submission in a
most flagrant manner.

_*The_Burning_Question*_:

Is my composition, my soul massaging literary wonder, my opus literatus
maxim (apols for rusty Latin - 32 (years i am) minus 13 (i was last
taught Latin) equals 19 (years of rust lol) despite a vivid rememberance
of "Locus Desperatus"!!) stored in a cookie somewhere? I know...it's
almost too absurd to hope for isn't it? But (and my knowledge is not
wide in this area) considering post data, cookies etc i'm thinking,
"What have i got to lose by asking?".

Can anyone restore my faith in Vista™? Can my Love Letter be saved? Am
i faced with a Locus Desperatus? Any and all suggestions would be most
graciously welcomed.......i'm distraught!

-Kind regards, The GhostyGoo™ (Value Packs of 10 with 5 Varieties).

From what you said, you're screwed.
Clipboard is more like a chalk board, once you run the eraser over it &
write anew (or reboot), it gets all smeared up & there is no real way to
tell what was there before.
Unless you paste it into a word processor & save it, it's gone.

My professors always stressed brevity and clarity.
I would give you a D- for your verbosity.

BTW: Rambler went broke long ago...LOL

For a minute there, I thought I might be reading an MS EULA...

I kinda did say if you aren't interested in ramblings to ffwd to "th
burning question" folks, a little less hostility honestly wouldn'
"cramp your style".

Bah! As i thought. I am right though in thinking that if i were usin
XP i could simply open up clipbrd.exe? Or are my years finally catchin
up with me? Lol.

No idea if i can find the composition inside a cookie? Cookies are on
of the few areas i'm not aux fait with, i tend to observe them lik
mythical creatures which do exceptionally wonderous things i have ver
very little understanding of. Clever cookies *pat pat*.

I'm not sure though that i asked for a mark on my post in it'
grammatical entirety, only actually the Latin which i'm re-learnin
mainly for posteriety should my prospective offspring favour privat
schooling- kinda thinking it would be fun to help out with the Latin HW
i certainly could have used some help when i was 11 *chuckle*. Secondl
i've run out of religious texts to study having, over the space of abou
5-6 years, digested everything from The Enuma Elish, all the works o
Hermes Trismestigustus, several famous Wiccan BOS's including th
traditional Alexandrian, The Tanakh (Torah/Nevi'im/Ketuvim), The Suhu
Ibrahim and Qur'an, countless derivations of the Christian Bible and s
on and so forth.

I'm afraid your D- for verbosity is quite lost on me despite m
appreciating you actually taking the time to discuss my dilema a
opposed to an almost covert line of Zs *chortle*. You see, in very muc
stark opposition to your professors, i will often sacrifice some smal
amount of clarity and brevity due to my admittedly overindulgent ques
for morphemes and prose and ever evolving literary cadence.

I truly can't help myself really but i'm very aware that it's as muc
of a handicap as a gift which is why:-

If i decide to stick around, which i very well might *maniaca
laughter* i shall endeavour to be more succinct in future.

BTW- de gustibus no est disputandum* was, or so i thought, a joke at m
own expense but i'm afraid your harshly critical D- has pulled it int
rather a different light, no?

*There's no accounting for taste -a prime example of my afflictio
and i do so very sincerely apologise Sir.


Code
-------------------
Does anyone know if information sent to a site (such as when i hit submit reply in a moment) is contained/retained within the cookie and if it is can i get at it at all?
-------------------

I guess i could just go through my cookies, find the facebook one an
try open it with notepad and see?
I might do that after i've had a stroll

You will find that the information within the cookie (read with any text
editor) suffers from brevity, as compared with your posts! (-:

Short, accurate and "to the point" will get you more responses to your
questions.

I couldn't read through this repetitive rambling message now (I"m not
denigrating it) but if your sweetie isn't being held hostage like in Slumdog
Millionaire I'm not sure why you don't just fly to her and get her.

I can't find the clipboard tool directions I've used at the moment, to
create a clipboard eraser, but try this:

Clipboard is designed to hold only one data unit in a certain format in
time. Windows NT offered a feature called 'Local Clipbook' until XP version
(excluded), but it was not automatic. It's always the good idea to write
large articles in text processors, which are much more stable than Web form
controls. Moreover, MS Office and some other specific text editors offers
the function of 'CLipboard Ring', which actually allows to store multiple
text's cutouts or copies.
