User talk:Rolig Loon/Bookmark URLs

Features

• Reads URLs and labels from a user-created notecard

 * Each card may hold up to 21 URLs. 
 * User may place an unlimited number of notecards in contents. User may advance to the next card 
   by selecting that choice from a dialog button.

• Generates a dialog box with button labels from the notecard
• User selects URL from a dialog button to open the in-world browser and navigate to the web site

NOTE: You cannot create or edit a notecard with a script in LSL, so you must so that operation manually.

 You may either create a notecard and then drop it in your HUD's contents, or edit an existing card by
 selecting the HUD in Edit and then Opening a card that is already in contents. 

Sample Notecard

# Sample notecard for the "Bookmark URLs" HUD

# Any blank line or a line starting with "#" is ignored. You cannot write to a notecard with a script in SL, so the only 
#   way to store bookmarks is to add them to this card manually. Yes, it's annoying, but it's not difficult, especially 
#   if you cut and paste the URL.  

# Each line on this card starts with a tag for a bookmark, followed by a "|" symbol, and then by the URL itself. 
# Only about 12 characters of the tag will fit on a dialog button. Extra characters will not be displayed. 
# A tag longer than 24 characters will generate an error message.

# Here are some sample bookmarks

# You may store up to 21 bookmarks on a single card. When you have collected more than 21 bookmarks, start a new notecard.
# You may put as many notecards in the HUD's inventory as you wish.  The HUD will load the next notecard in inventory 
#   when you select the "New Card?" button from the dialog menu.
# Suggestion: You may want to use this multi-card feature as a way to organize your bookmarks by using each notecard 
#   as a separate "folder".
