                //
                //  This styling is an extra step which is likely not required. 
                //
                // Why is it here? To ensure:
                // 1. the element is able to have focus and selection.
                // 2. if element was to flash render it has minimal visual impact.
                // 3. less flakyness with selection and copying which might occur if
                //    the textarea element is not visible.
                //
                // The likelihood is the element won't even render, not even a flash,
                // so some of these are just precautions. 
                // 
                // However in IE the element
                // is visible whilst the popup box asking the user for permission for
                // the web page to copy to the clipboard. To prevent this, we are using 
                // the detectIE workaround.

                // Place in top-left corner of screen regardless of scroll position.
                textArea.style.position = 'fixed';
                textArea.style.top = 0;
                textArea.style.left = 0;

                // Ensure it has a small width and height. Setting to 1px / 1em
                // doesn't work as this gives a negative w/h on some browsers.
                textArea.style.width = '2em';
                textArea.style.height = '2em';

                // We don't need padding, reducing the size if it does flash render.
                textArea.style.padding = 0;

                // Clean up any borders.
                textArea.style.border = 'none';
