Er, no: SHIFT+click on a link if you want to open it in a new window, since there's no way to open a link in the same window if it is made to be opened in a new one...

And Orph, yes Notepad will display those characters, though you'll notice it gives you a message about using special characters if you try to save it. Not all browsers/systems can view those characters, though I should really get off my ass and make something convert 'safe' HTML like that into the right characters.

I have a special request. My tutorial about screens is not one anyone would think to look up. It is easy to find, but no one would dream of doing so. i am asking to have the link added to all the warning messages of this nature so it has a chance of being seen and used.

thanx for considering.

You could always get a third party server browser if you have some particular hatred of loading up steam just to check whos in the server. I used HLSW, and its a handy tool. Loads far quicker than Steam, and you can set it up to do remote admining and things which is handy for me

http://www.hlsw.net/

If anybody hears news about server plugins or whathaveyou that dish out info to a website, I'd be interested

I have no hatred at all. I was thinking more basic. I have currently 3 machines online. 2 are gaming, and this one (my old pIII 500) is my interactive comp. I use it for forums and such. the other two are currently turned off.

I was thinking that if it were possible to see who is online with a machine that does not have steam installed, it could help. Many people are here at school and might be curious to see who is fragging. Me personally, i spend far more time on this old machine because my kids have my gaming machine tied up. It would be handy to look in on the server, then afterward tell the kids i need the comp. I wouldn't need to uproot them just to find out the server is empty.

make sense now?

OK.. Let me see if I get the question.. You wanta third party program that you can either run on your machine or have on this web page where you can look at it and see who is on the server, and if you want to play with who is on.. if so then you kick the kids in the butt and get on and play. Yes there is.

One: http://www.serverspy.net/site/gamelauncher/

It will allow Lep. to put a server watch thing on this web site and you can see who is on the server and you can then click a join server button on that page to load up steam and join the server. I have used this and find it very useful.

Two: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/GameServerInfo.asp

I have not used this program so I am not sure how good/bad it is.

Three: http://games.softpedia.com/get/Tools/Server-Watch.shtml#

Someone I know said this was a good program. I dont know personally, so it is one you need to check out for yourself.

Someone else posted about HLSW, it is a great tool.. but it is used on your end and not used on a web page like this.

If you want a Chatter that also will give you info on Servers Give X-Fire a try.

Now if your asking about Stats as LEP said, then I would recommend PhyscoStats. http://www.psychostats.com/

OH Here is a Link I just came across it has a bunch of links there with discriptions of what the programs/links are.. there maybe what your looking for there. http://www.planethalflife.com/commands/tools.shtml

I hope this helps.

Yes Leperous HL2 is supported. I know several CS:S servers that use psychostats.

Oh and your welcome. =)
