link() is now supported in the webclient for redirecting to other game servers.

BYOND Version:	507
Operating System:	Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Web Browser:	Chrome 39.0.2171.71
Applies to:	Webclient

Status:

Resolved (507.1271)

This issue has been resolved.

Descriptive Problem Summary:

The link() proc does not work in the webclient. When attempting to use it, it simply does nothing.

Ideally this should switch the iframe without needing a complete refresh of the browser.

Lummox JR	This is documented as a planned future feature. It isn't a bug.

PopLava	Doesn't seem to work for http:// navigations. By design?

PopLava	Is it possible to redirect someone from one webclient game to another webclient game? Seems like the best you could do is redirect to the web page where the game is being hosted but that isn't working as I noted above.
