link script.

i'm looking for something i see eveerywhere but can't find...
a link script that creates a menu offering to send the toucher to a url...
i've see them in vendors calle link url, touch link, and link script....i hate to IM the creators out of the blue...this is my alst resort before that!

ARe you looking for "llHTTPRequest"?

http://lslwiki.net/lslwiki/wakka.php?wakka=communications

You're looking for: llLoadURL

i don't wanna post their name...but a kind soul got me exactly what i needed...and i really appreaciate it...

just needed a script that would load a web page when touched...
they seem to be called a lot of different things

In the spirit of a forum, would you kindly post what you learned so that all readers that search this topic and read this thread can benefit?

yeah...just as soon as i learn to click and paste in world....

anybody know how to do that? 'cause i don't


but in the mean timee...anybody need this kind of script, im me in world...i'll be happy to slide it ovwer to you...just like i was fortunate enough to get it..

i'm to new to actually W R I T E scripts so i wouldn't want to spread some crap due to a misprint on my part

I'm assuming you mean "cut and paste"... same as anywhere else, <CTRL>+C copies, <CTRL>+T cuts, and <CTRL>+P pastes...

You can copy text into the Windows system clipboard, and paste anywhere you normally would.

i love these forums! thanks Johan! I'll post the text soon as i'm in world again!

Hey there,

Jumpman, how do I have to change your script to have that blue options box with an URL opened when someone walks through a phantom ? Know what I mean ? Would be great if you could help me.

Umm, I think you maybe using the wrong shortcut keys, the Ctrl+<insert shortcut key here> is from the old Wordperfect DOS programme and were adopted by Windows, they are Ctrl+C (copies), Ctrl+X (Deletes but holds it in your clipboard), Ctrl+V (pastes)... Ctrl+P is a print shortcut... unless you are not using a DOS based programme like windows?

Instead of being in a touch_start() handler, you'd probably want it in a collision_start() handler, and you'd need llVolumeDetect(TRUE); to have happened to the prim at some point, perhaps in state_entry() if not in some other script.

err.. if you don't mind would you please be so kind and post the whole syntax of such a script cos I'm a nOOb concerning scripting and don't know where to put those handlers and classes and so on. Thx in advance.

Well, I haven't actually tried any of this, but just mod'ing the posted script (and assuming you want the URL for slutmagazine, whatever that may be, hehehe), it should go something like:

default
{
state_entry()
{
llVolumeDetect(TRUE);
llSay(0, "TOUCH ME TO GO TO SLUTMAGAZINE ";
}

collision_start(integer total_number)
{
llSay(0, "LET S GO.";
key giver;
giver = llDetectedKey(0);
string name = llDetectedName(0);
if (giver != NULL_KEY)
{
llLoadURL(giver,"","http://slutmagazine.blogspot.com/";

}

}
}

wow, great !! Thanks a lot. Btw, I'm at least able to replace that url to my own blog , hehe

i have no idea...i havent seen instant load web links like you want... just click touch ones..maybe somebody els knows

Actually, they are based on the Mac's cmd-key (AKA Apple key) menu convention from the early 80's. It is the key sequence directly under the touch-typing home-keys on the English keyboard:

z, x, c, v.

cmd-z redoes, cmd-x deletes, cmd-c copies, cmd-v pastes.

swap the touch start_event handler for a collison_start event handler.

I hate to be corrective, especially as there are some very sensitive Apple users out there, but before the apple dropped, WordPerfect for DOS was around some 3 years beforehand. In the days when I had to write my own print drivers for programmes, these shortcut keys were a way of reducing the code required, when you only had 64kb to play with. The Apple Mac never had a Ctrl key, only a substitution, hence why the shortcuts use Ctrl and not cmd.

Don't forget llVolumeDetect(TRUE);
