Title: About adresses in adverts
Post by: Chironex on September 20, 2007, 11:05:21 PM

I try to do an advert that show an internet adress:

Code: [Select]

ulx addCsayAdvert "Join the Silent's Server Steam group now!\nhttp://steamcommunity.com/groups/silents_server" 255 0 0 180 10 a
But the // is parsed as a comment, so the ad is not showing at all. Any idea?

I have one, you should do something like that in the ulx.cc_addCsayAdvert or in the ulx.cc_addAdvert :

Code: [Select]

message = message:gsub( "<http>", "http://" )So we can do

Code: [Select]

ulx addCsayAdvert "Join the Silent's Server Steam group now!\n<http>steamcommunity.com/groups/silents_server" 255 0 0 10 5 aAnd it works ;)

If you have another solution to display // please tell me :p

Try using escape slash \.
Basically, make http:// = http:\/\/
I think that's it.
You could also leave off http://. It's what we do when advertising our forums on our dev server.

I've obviously tried the escape character but it display it too (i should have say that)

About removing http://..yeah, not a bad idea lol :)
