Was finally forced to DL IE7. now I cant connect directly to telnet by clicking the links in the game bang forum. (I use thes to check game stats like whos online and in game when I dont want to stop my script and such....) It goes straight to a "page can not be displayed' error. Any ideas?
MS in their infinite wisdom removed that capability in IE7. I've heard of workarounds, but never got them to work.
There was a work around, but for some workstations it does not work. We had the telnet working in our XP and Vista machine, then had to reformat the XP machine, and now the workaround will not work in XP. And just recently the Vista machine stopped doing it.
We were actually toying with the idea of creating a TWGS directory for the web browser, where we had mini-terminals that visitors could click to login to that specific server. We would have each server listed with a small mini-terminal that they "connect" in their browser and it will connect to that server. The downside is it uses Flash, but if enough interest is there, we could finish it up and publicize it.
