Abstract
Provided is an apparatus for communication between a webpage and an operating system. The apparatus includes memory storing a first software for an operating system and a second software for a web browser. The apparatus also includes processing circuitry that executes the first software to provide the operating system including a clipboard and executes the second software to cause the web browser to access a web page. Further, a software (the first software or the second software) executed by the processing circuitry detects a message that is buffered in a clipboard provided by the operating system, and determines whether the message is in a preset format that is indicative of the software executed by the processing circuitry being a destination of the message. The software executed by the processing circuitry then processes the message when the message is in the preset format.
