Browser is not displaying localhost.

[tommymaster]

Hi!
This is my code:

window = guiCreateWindow(0, 0, 500, 500, "News", false)
browser = guiCreateBrowser (0, 10, 500, 500, true, false, false, window)
theBrowser = guiGetBrowser (browser)
loadBrowserURL (theBrowser, "http://localhost/index.html")

This is inside a clientsided function what gets triggered from server size. The window called "News" is getting displayed, but the index.html file of my local host won't.  I am using XAMPP, and the file index.html exists, and i can view it in Google Chrome, by setting the URL to "http://localhost/index.html". What may the problem be, could you please help? I want to set up an easy HTML page, and by clicking onto texts it will redirect me to an other HTML file, and if possible, change these files without restarting the resource. Is this possible here?

You're setting the URL too fast. Use the browser events.

You'll need to use this one:

 --this gets triggered from server side:
local window = guiCreateWindow(0, 0, 500, 500, "News", false)
local browser = guiCreateBrowser (0, 10, 500, 500, true, false, false, window)
local theBrowser = guiGetBrowser (browser)
addEventHandler ("onClientBrowserCreated", theBrowser, setURL)
--end of function

function setURL()
	loadBrowserURL (source, "http://localhost/index.html")
end

Still it does not work.

Try youtube.com or mtasa.com which should work without requesting the domains

Else try adding port 80 after localhost like "localhost:80/index.html"

it is not giving any error. the function gets defined way before it would trigger the function that contains addEventHandler

Edited my post didn't read the comments in the code

[tommymaster]

and how should i do that?

[Tails]

Just change the address in loadBrowserURL

[tommymaster]

sorry, it was still displaying your old comment, i'll try it.

it is still not working. even if i try switching isLocal to true.

Set isLocal to false when you're loading the localhost

This worked fine with my server

 local browser = guiCreateBrowser (0, 10, 500, 500, false, false, false)
 local theBrowser = guiGetBrowser (browser)

 
 function setURL()
	loadBrowserURL (source, "http://localhost:3000")
 end
 addEventHandler ("onClientBrowserCreated", theBrowser, setURL)
