Creating an URL object?

AngularMomentum · 16 Jul 2006

I do not think so, you mean something like the system command module in SE?

Tom7777 · 16 Jul 2006

There was a way to load system files, so the only way you could do it is to link to a set browser path and load it, this isnt the best way to do things though i think as everyone has slightly different paths to there programs, in my opinion what we need is a module that detects the default browser on the users computer and then loads the url, not sure if this can be done though.

Yeah I do think that it would be a good one.

This idea comes up every so often...

[old link] Adding URLs?

It's said to be 'very easy' to add but it's not yet added. 😈

What about the webURL module? 😉

When did this one appear? 😕

This one should work on all Windows-Systems: http://music-drive.com/urlbutton.osm

But on my system it takes realy long to execute...don't know why

In the shell it takes less than a second

this is indeed a neat trick to use rundll32 to do the job. No speed problems on my system.

jobro · 23 Jul 2006

Impressive. Most impressive! Thanks for the help!

This is very cool. 😮 But it took quite a while to start up my browser.

malc · 24 Jul 2006

There will be a new component for this in the z release 🙂

Tom7777 · 24 Jul 2006

Cool, does it work like i said it should or slightly different method?

malc · 24 Jul 2006

Can't remember what you suggested but it's very simple - URL input + trigger input.

Tom7777 · 24 Jul 2006

Ok cool, thanks Malc 😀
