Lebarronn90 Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 ok was not sure where to post this so i figure general is a good place Many people have an aim link that you click and assumedly you get their aol instant messenger screenname but no matter who i click it on i get a strange message I will take Admiral_Antilliles as an example AIM:goim? Screenname=NA&message=Hello+Are+You+There?Check The path, and then try again so I click ok and get the following Internet Explorer cannot open this helper application for AIM:goim? Screenname=NA&message=Hello+Are+You+There? I then tried signing onto aol and doing this from there no luck now on some people you can figure out the name anyway like for DTAH just before the hello are you there it DTAH777 and for the new person CP it says Master3Kingdom but with antilliles i doubt he has a screenname called na& message for tk421 it says n/a&message and i kind of doubt that would be a chosen nickname as well So I am wondering why does it do this is this aim link something you can only use on say netscape and not IP or aol? so to the webmasters I give you this puzzle or anyone who can answer the question thanks a lot Play For Fun.....Play To Win.....But Most Of All Play With Honor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lebarronn90 Posted July 16, 2003 Author Share Posted July 16, 2003 but what about the people that have a name there and not NA. I still get the same message but I can see the name perhaps I need to ignore everything else and just look for a screenname which would be right before the Hello+Are+You+There? Because I just tried it on my own and still get the same check the path message as tho I have done an error but I did see my screenname before the hello are you there line Anyway thanks for the help Play For Fun.....Play To Win.....But Most Of All Play With Honor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted July 17, 2003 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted July 17, 2003 From what I understand, you have to have AIM running with IE in order for this to work. It is not something I have control over, only a feature that is default with phpBB.

Guest Admiral_Antilles Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Yes, I just put "NA" because i do not have an AIM name (yet) but, when I do I will put it up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
