Security Warning! | |
It is not a good idea to tie any security measures to the display names. |

- If the request fails for any reason, there will be no error notice or dataserver event. You may use a timer to check for stale requests.
Examples
<lsl>key owner_key; key owner_name_query; string owner_display_name;
default {
state_entry() { owner_key = llGetOwner(); owner_name_query = llRequestDisplayName(owner_key); } dataserver(key queryid, string data) { if ( owner_name_query == queryid ) { owner_display_name = data; llSay(0, "The display name of the owner of this script : " + owner_display_name ); } }}</lsl>
