Because ID Server has no "selection" i need another way to do some stuff i normaly do with selections.

My task is to transfer some pageitems from one document to another document.

In "desktop" ID i do the the following:
- Select the pageitems
- Copy the selected items
- Paste to the second document

What are the best techniques to the same task in ID Server???

My initial plan is:
- Export the pageitems as snippet (instead of copying them)
- Place the snippet in the second document

But how can i select pageitems for the snippet export?

Has anyone a workaround to use?
