every post beneath this one that is not related to the development of linksbox will be deleted

feature suggestions, bugreports and offers to help are still welcome but no support requests and attitude discussions. Smile

ps: and depending on the content i will send a warning.

wow that is an interesting idea.. it hadnt occurred to me that this feature would enable control of one xbmc from another...
although you can already do some of this control from python...

this sort of ties into the home automation idea in that lots of devices have web interfaces.

haven't tested from one xbox to another, but yes it does connect to webservers, i briefly tested it earlier in the thread and it worked quite nicely. https login is a problem still, but as long as it is anonymous login it worked for me. as things unfold, this will probably be expanded on, but we have to concentrate on direct functionality issues first. when i first read your post i was a little lost on what you were asking, but that is a very good thought. there are a lot of uses for this, just use your imagination. i am interested to see what you come up with. a note for any dev's, when i tried to hit a loopback at 127.0.0.1, i get a socket error. i have the webserver running, but couldn't get to it, tried accessing it by the actual ip as well, same result. any ideas why that might happen?

1. it's already been stated that no they can't give us an estimate. go back and read the entire thread pease.

2. it's also been stated that it's really only in an alpha state nevermind a beta one so any guestimate would most likely be out by a very wide margin.

3. your (and my post) will most likely get deleted soon (refer to hullebulle's post above).

lol! i had to laugh when i read that line...nah your posts should be alright. things have settled back down again. sorry those of you not directly involved in all of the drama had to sit through everything that was going on. all is well, and development has been continuing.

someone else has joined up with us, i am not sure if he wants to be named though, so i am going to keep it private until i chat with him to find out for sure.

...and now for the updates!!! links is now a dll, uses 0kb when unloaded, xbe size is now reasonable (i believe it can still be reduced even more). there have also been a few other nice updates that are not confirmed and tested yet so they won't be officially announced yet. a lot of changes have been made and a few bugs have been solved. stay tuned for more....

regards,
los93sol

more updates....

-with changing links to a dll, links no longer holds our history or forwards media files, that will have to be redone. the trade-off was worth the sacrifice though Smile

-now for the good news, the xbe is 8.77megs, should be more acceptable for the dev's.

-the virtual keyboard now works for text field input support.

-more intelligent navigation through links within a webpage, you can now skip around links on a page with up/down/left/right on the d-pad. much faster than the previous way and is much less painless! (should still be tweaked slightly to optimize it even more.)

-drop-down menu support, links is now able to handle drop down menus.

-the gui is undergoing changes and is devloping nicely. more details on this as it unfolds.

-several bugfixes!

that's all for now, hopefully there will be even more to announce soon.

regards,
los93sol
