Send URLs in chat to the in-game browser

[hirebrand]

Having the in-game browser load URLs typed out in the chat window, just like it opens examine windows, would be pretty cool...

examples:

/tell Soandso Check out my guild, [http://www.joinba.com/ ] its pretty cool

Soandso clicks the address and it loads in game, reads about the guild without leaving the game



/r raid info for this next mob is here: [http://uberraider.org/dof/siyamak.htm]

raid clicks the link and reads the site, now everyone knows the strategy



player uses a parse program

/g last fight, 312 DPS, chart at [http://earthlink.net/~minmaxer]

group gets to see who is the top damager in a neat chart very easily



Roleplayer shouts, "Hear ye! The Guild of Silly Fellows is holding a tournament for all mighty men! ((ooc: [http://sillyfellows.org/febtourney/] ))

passer by clicks the link and reads a made-up poster about the tournament

I don't think this is possible, unless Sony added it.

I know this is a request but...

The embeded web browser isn't officially supported, so its doubtfull SOE will implement any requests relating to it. It bairly manages to render basic HTML and only recently got support for links. Last I checked forms didn't work at all.

so... Now it's possible to have an "ingame" browser or something like that?
