RE: Web services plugin [DEV]
I've got a host that I never use and it has loads of space and unlimited bandwith, so, I could host as many as you please also...

Like I said, just need to learn...

Would it be possible to make it multi-lingual somehow?

I'm making it in, ugh, VB. I know a lot of you wouldn't recommend it. But although I have some C++ skills I thought it would took me longer to develop it in C++. And so far, VB didn't give me any problems. Instead, I think VB just took a lot of extra coding out of my hands.

Thanks for your offer, I'll surely consider it. (are you on #msgplus often?)

Well, as far as the main plugin, it doesn't contain that many text (see screenshot). Also it's a bit unrealistic that all parsers will be written in several languages. So I don't think it would be useful to translate the main plugin.
But of course I could make a parser for a babelfish a like translation site.

If it doesn't contain that much text, it would be easy to translate or w/e... There are a lot of dutch and french users of plus! and many other people that use plus! in different languages, and it may be helpful to have several parsers that are different languages or w/e...

Yeah, you've got a point there, I'll consider it ;)

Anyway, here's a little tutorial: How to make your own parsers. Tell me what you think of the way it works. I'll now work on releasing an alpha version.

Seems like a good tutorial to me, but the <textarea>'s shouldn't have the same coloured background, make it a different colour, its a little confusing, other than that (y).

That's because it isn't a <textarea> ;), just refresh, I changed it

Thats much better, so do you need visual basic to do this, or can you do it in notepad and save it as a *.vps or whatever?

Updated the tutorial.

Anyway, there's a little problem with Javascript parsers. It seems I can't call basic functions like toLowerCase from the parsers. Do I really need to add a javascript object with all the standard functions :o

btw: what would be a good name for the plugin? 'web services' or 'internet services', or something more original..?
