Sorry, you can't emulate keyboard input in PHP. And if the copied string had
tabs, they would be handled as tab characters within the window, not as commands
to switch to another window.
If this is on Windows, you may be able to do it with an ActiveX control. But
there's no way to do it natively in PHP.
