Using jQuery to set values inside attributes of an Object element?

Question

Here is the rundown of the problem: ``` console.log($("#clippy")); //For testing purposes. The element is properly selected. //Next, I need to grab the text value I want to be copied into the clipboard... var textToCopy = $(".permalink input[name='link']").text(); //How can I paste the value inside textToCopy inside the appropriate areas: //Here's the exact HTML I need to manipulate, with the two params I need to modify. //Labeled: "<-----HERE!" /*

Accepted Answer

You can access the parameters of an object by finding the param by name:

```
$('#clippy').find('param[name="FlashVars"]').val(textToCopy); 
```

You can access the attributes of the embed within the object like this:

```
$('#clippy').find('embed').attr('FlashVars', textToCopy);
```
