WWW in SecondLife: About time

My Second Life, Scripting / Building, Linden Labs, Content Creation, Software — CodeBastard Redgrave on March 7, 2008 at 7:02 am

One of the greatest restrictions for content creation and cross interoperability within the SecondLife client has been the total inability to display HTML within the SecondLife viewer. Well it seems the Lindens have been working hard at it, because I think their last Release Candidate notice does not sound like an April Fool’s (we are far too early for that anyways).

Read the release note:

Okay it is not HTML on a prim yet, but sounds promising. It cannot yet display Flash content because it lacks support for Firefox extensions, which it is based on, but I guess it’s better than nada. Hopefully we should see more development in that sense soon.
