Has anyone created a simple HTML parser that uses the new image link to a single character and "simulates" a browser to the best of MC's ability?
What I am looking for is to be able to GET a url from the web, a simple standard html pages with pictures and text.. parse for image references, assign those to the link property of a characters then display the page in a scrolling field in MC/REV. Or course the HTML "gamut" will be restricted to MC's range of tags and stuff outside that range, like tables, will all be imported un-rendered, hopefully just in a running line of images and text. i.e. I want to keep it simple and not try to shoot the moon with a script that tries to do too much...all that is needed: text... image.... text...image, images...text text... images... running down the field... if text can flow around the image great, if not also no problem. Of course if you have a more robust but bug free MC "browser" OK... The context is where we might have a station that has a web connection but where we want access, surfing etc. to be totally blocked and as such no browsers will be installed on the station at all...for kiosk and "kid proof/safe" situations ( I get requests for this facility regularly) And (maybe we want to start a new thread) is anyone working on applications for the "future of futures" i.e. serving MC/Rev stacks on Web TV? i.e. one day in the not too distant future a family will sit around their TV and they get sick of some of the raunchy programming they will just switch to a channel that opens an internet connection and downloads web pages... (the latter being the myopic vision) but if they could also download an MC/Rev base multi-media show and be able to click buttons and use menus from the screen....
