drop box question

[Xander Lopez]

So I can see that there are plenty of notecard dropbox scripts available in sl.  People use these drop boxes so they can collect notecards from people for feedback or application purpose.

So here is the real question...  Is there a way for my friends to access to the dropbox contents tab without me giving them my modify right? i would like my friends to pick up some notecards from the suggestion drop box, and even delete some notecards from the box.

I was looking through syntax which could do this but I seem to have hard time finding one...

Yes, simple llGiveInventory will give a notecard as shown below:

    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        key ID = llDetectedKey(0);
        llGiveInventory(ID, llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_NOTECARD, 0) );
    }

OK, now the more complex thing - you want them to be able to pick a notecard and delete it. One way to do it, build a list of the notecards, present this list in a dialogue-box with options for GIVE and DELETE.

Use llGetInventoryName to do the proper action either llGiveInventory or llRemoveInventory

Should also be able to set it to group, with shared perms, to allow other group members to view/edit the contents of the box? Should be able to put them in a role that allows editing. Has been ages since I have set up roles though.
