Passing Avatar Name Thru URL String

posted this to the wrong forum earlier ..... newbie question.. started mesing with SLS today ... simply wanting to pass the avatar name through the URL string ... am I even on the right track here?.... it doesn't ... wondering if Im even close?

default
{
touch_start(integer num_detected)
{
llRequestAgentData(llDetectedKey(0), DATA_NAME); // request creation date
}
dataserver(key queryid, string data)
{
llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), "My Site", "http://myServer/?avName="+ data);
}
}

You don't need to invoke data_server, you can get an avatar's name with llDetectedName.

default
{
   touch_start(integer start_param) {
	  key av = llDetectedKey(0);
	  string avName = llDetectedName(0);
	  llLoadURL(av, "My Site", "http://www.myserver.com/?avName="+avName);
   }
}
   

Thanks !.. this worked perfect !

It would probably be a good idea to URL-escape the data you pass to llHTTPRequest, using llEscapeURL().
