Looking for FOLauncher web files
« on: February 03, 2018, 05:24:08 pm »
As found in the source code the launcher uses the following files to fetch a list of changelogs
Code: [Select]
http://fonline2238.net/newsupdate.php
http://fo2238.fodev.net/changelog.css
http://fonline2238.net/updatecheck.php

However these are not included in the source and the domain is down by now. Anyone could send me these, or give instructions based on which i could recreate them?

You can get the requested files here. As you can see they are fairly slim because they use the SSI (Server Side Includes) feature of this forum software to grab content. So if you want to provide your own news/changelog you'd have to return your own content, unless you want to use SMF also.

If I would make this today, I'd have some script that fetched structured data like JSON or something instead and then generated the HTML markup needed instead of simply including raw HTML.

The launcher uses a webview using Internet Explorer (or maybe edge on Windows 10?) so any content could go their really...
