function Hello() {
    var text_to_copy = document.getElementById("quote").innerHTML;

    navigator.clipboard.writeText(text_to_copy).then(
        function(){
            alert("Copied successfully"); // success 
        })
      .catch(
         function() {
            alert("Error"); // error
      });
} 
 

I want the code to flash the "Copied duccessfully" or "Error" instead of showing in alert box

• 2 Alternative to an alert can be anything. What have you tried? – GetSet Commented Mar 24, 2022 at 19:07
• 1 A small message that pops up and disappears after a while is sometimes called a toast or a toast notification. Perhaps that will help you finding a ponent or tutorial. – James Commented Mar 24, 2022 at 19:10

A snackbar/toast message would work perfectly. But you will need to code your own implementation for it ofc.

An example of how to implement this:

function showSnackBar() {
  var sb = document.getElementById("snackbar");

  //this is where the class name will be added & removed to activate the css
  sb.className = "show";

  setTimeout(() => {
    sb.className = sb.className.replace("show", "");
  }, 3000);
}

#snackbar {
  visibility: hidden;
  color: #fff;
  background-color: #333;
  min-width: 250px;
  margin-left: -125px;
  border-radius: 2px;
  padding: 16px;
  text-align: center;
  left: 50%;
  bottom: 30px;
  z-index: 1;
  position: fixed;
}

/* This will be activated when the snackbar's class is 'show' which will be added through JS */
#snackbar.show {
  visibility: visible;
  -webkit-animation: fadein 0.5s, fadeout 0.5s 2.5s;
  animation: fadein 0.5s, fadeout 0.5s 2.5s;
}

/* Animations for fading in and out */
@-webkit-keyframes fadein {
  from {
    bottom: 0;
    opacity: 0;
  }

  to {
    bottom: 30px;
    opacity: 1;
  }
}

@keyframes fadein {
  from {
    bottom: 0;
    opacity: 0;
  }

  to {
    bottom: 30px;
    opacity: 1;
  }
}

@-webkit-keyframes fadeout {
  from {
    bottom: 30px;
    opacity: 1;
  }

  to {
    bottom: 0;
    opacity: 0;
  }
}

@keyframes fadeout {
  from {
    bottom: 30px;
    opacity: 1;
  }

  to {
    bottom: 0;
    opacity: 0;
  }
}

<span id="snackbar">Successfully Copied</span>

You can edit & style to your liking. (ofc ideally you should edit this to pass whatever string message you want the Snackbar/toast to display, something i left out for you to enjoy)
