Copy contents of a dropdown list easily with a right-click.

What is Copy Dropdown Contents?

"Copy Dropdown Contents" is a Chrome extension that simplifies copying the contents of an HTML dropdown list. It is a handy tool for individuals who are unfamiliar with browser DevTools, significantly reducing the manual work of copying content. However, the extension does not support the `<select>` element inside an `<iframe>`, and requires the user to focus on the document due to limitations of the browser's Clipboard API.

Extension summary

Analyze keywords

This extension enables people to copy the contents of a dropdown menu (to be precise, an HTML <select> element) into their clipboard.

For people who are not familiar with the browser DevTools, they have to type manually to copy the contents. With this extension, they only need one right click.

LIMITATIONS:

This extension doesn't work if the <select> element is inside an <iframe>.
Due to the limitations of browser Clipboard API, the user must focus on the document, or the copy function will not work. For example, if you have the browser DevTools open and focus in the console, pressing "Copy Dropdown Contents" in the context menu will result in the "Document is not focused." error.

It don't work for the aliexpress.com home page search box drop down keywords list copying. hope you can spend some time to make it works. But it's still a good job for the extension.

I was delighted to find this app. What a time saver!. Works very well. The only limitation I came across was it has a max limit it will copy, which for me was 66 lines, or 1,490 characters. And of course, I had several dropdowns that were longer, but it still saved me hours.
