OTClient Open Website

[.Smile]

I am making a button on the module in OTClient and would like to know what is the function to open an external link in case of a website.

@onClick: ?

Hi .Smile,

os.execute("start http://otland.net")

The above would do the trick, perhaps not on the .otui file, use Lua for that.

If you find that not elegant enough due to the console showing up and starting the browser directing it to the desired page you might also use the function openUrl.

That's the method to call it via luascript:

g_lua.bindSingletonFunction("g_platform", "openUrl", &Platform::openUrl, &g_platform);

Best Wishes

Thanks so much for answering, the second option is much better.
