You forgot to tell llLoadUrl to whom it should present the URL :)

llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), "Flame on!", "http://forums.secondlife.com";);

Do you mean to say that when you touch it, you do get the dialog, but clicking the button on the dialog doesn't fire up your web browser?

If so, does clicking a link in the chat history also fail?

The wiki says...
From: Teh Wiki
The url is truncated to 255 characters and message is truncated to 254 characters. Introduced in version 1.6, this function was disabled for group deeded items. As of version ~1.9, the function was enabled for group deeded items. In the server upgrade released on 2007-03-14, it appears that the function is again disabled for group deeded items (please change it back!).

Is this a group-deeded object?

I get no response whatsoever!

Ive also tried this:

default
{


touch_start(integer total_number)
{
rotation rot = llSetLocalRot();

string z = (string)rot.z;
string s = (string)rot.s;

llSay(0, "z = " + z + ", s = " + s)
}
}



but it doesn't like the 2nd to last }

this is from a door opening tutorial

You didn't end the llSay line with a semicolon.

it doesn't need a semi colon - the code should be right
I cant even get the default code to work!

Er.. Yeah, it kinda does need a semicolon if you want it to compile.

When you click Save, does it say "Compile successful, saving..."

If so... are you on a parcel with scripts disabled?

Er, the reason you were getting an error on the } is that you didn't terminate the previous line of code with a semi-colon.

Of course, once you get past that error you'll discover that you're not passing any parameters into llSetRot. I'm betting what you meant to call was llGetRot. Here's real, working code that does both the things you asked. If it's not working for you, make sure you're someplace where scripts are enabled and that the Running box is checked in your script window:

default
{

touch_start(integer total_number)
{
rotation rot = llGetRot();

string z = (string)rot.z;
string s = (string)rot.s;

llSay(0, "z = " + z + ", s = " + s);

llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), "Flame on!", "http://forums.secondlife.com";);
}

}

this actually worked with two object, but not with the third one :-)


default
{
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), "Flame on!", "http://www.readme.cc";);
}
}
