Simple Web Browser

**Drunkie** · 07-18-2010

I was playing around with the HTML panel in Lua and made a little web browser. Enjoy.

Put web_browser.lua in lua/autorun/
It can be installed on server and client.
Type OpenWebBrowser in console to use.

I still say mine is better. Because it shift-tab was designed like shit and is laggy.

Ingame browers: because windowed mode + Alt-tab doesn't utilise 100% of my screen D=

Useless IMHO, but nonetheless an achievement.

Agreed. This was not made to replace your out-of-game browser obviously.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you. I installed it on my friends server and everyone there has tried it out and reported no problems. Try putting http://www.google.com into the search bar and see what happens, you might be trying to load an invalid website.
