SL URL secondlife:///app/agent/<agent_id>/im notr supported

[Agnes Chalet]

Do you have exprience scripting following URL using llLoadURL?

I tried with below URL to start IM session but always get message "URL is not supported". Same in SL viewer and Firestorm

secondlife:///app/agent/<agent_id>/im

As far as documentation goes, you cannot put viewer URI namespace items in llLoadURL. See: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlLoadURL

Quote

The url is truncated to 255 characters and message is truncated to 254 characters.
The protocol for the url must be specified, currently only "https://" and "http://" are supported.
The URL should be RFC-1738 compliant with proper escapes.

You can print them in chat instead and point script users there. They will also most probably work in the description field of llDialog.

Do you know if this topic could be raised to SL?

I don't understand why a fonction described in their website woudl not be supported. This is written nowhere

llLoadURL is for /external/ links, like http://google.com . SLURLs do in fact work in the description field of llDialog(), so there is no reason for LL to create a function that is essentially the equivalent of llDialog(targetID,"secondlife:///app/agent/"+(string)otherID+"/im",[],-10000);

N.B. These links also work in all of the sections of your profile and picks (you will need an alt or a friend to do some debugging though, as they only appear as links for other people) enclose them in [] to change the shown text : [secondlife:///app/agent/<UUID>/im IM me] becomes IM me

N.B.2 All of the characters in the SLURL count against a llDialog window's 512 character limit, so you can really only fit up to 5 or so before llDialog stops working.
