how come people have moved on from my post without answering it?
1. Why do we need to register our computers with the server? This sounds very shady to me.
2. How do I disable it registering? The register server or whatever is blocked by my stupid ISP
I can't read your code(no offense) so I can't figure out either of these

1 - I'm not sure why the CC computers need to be registering... It doesn't sound shady at all because if it was shady, why would it tell you it's registering?

2 - Disable registering by removing the program. If you cannot connect to the server, you cannot download any of the sites available. Meaning this is useless.

1. It acts as a cookie. Because cookies are impossible each computer has a unique ID instead which must be obtained from the sever.
2. You can't really. I've been having issues migrating the server and haven't been in the best state to do so (just had my wisdom teeth out).

That sounds a little insecure.
From what I know, cookies are just data the website stores on your computer. How are these impossible?

They are sent in headers, which are inaccessible in the HTTP API. Yes, it's not super secure, although it's not too bad. It's not like you're doing online banking or anything though,

You can set, but as far as I'm aware, you can't receive headers which have the cookies info for setting. So the client can't really set the cookies.

Hey oeed, have you tried to add a method that accepts GET requests yet? Because this still doesn't work with Github hosting

Mmmm, Quest is fairly low on my todo list right now to be honest. I've got quite a few more important things that OneOS which is my main CC priority, so all my CC time is spent on that. Once that's done I'll get around to fixing the mess that this is.

Well then I'll just have to wait, still love this program though. Nice and clean GUI as always ^^

I've heard this from multiple people now, so it's clearly not too specific. When I update it I'll fix that.

Ok cool :3

I am currently trying to make a Java/Desktop version of Quest (it will not support what you did with the cookies things for the moment) . I just need to understand how does the .nf* images used with Bedrock work, which is kinda complicated since I have extremely limited knowledge with Lua...
Are you ok with that?

Many people have problems connected to 000webhost. 000webhost filters/ban's many users, even ones who haven't used it.

I use at&t and you can connect to 000webhost.com but none of the websites that is hosted on it.

At&t members are blacklisted from 000webhost as you can see by googling this http://www.000webhos...klisted-t.html.

000webhost has hosted many illegal things from users which is one reason it may be blacklisted.


If you want your own real server get wamp from http://www.wampserver.com/en/
You have to portforward and change setting files to work with your port but anyone above their first year of highschool that isn't a complete idiot will probably understand it.
Also theres tutorials for older versions even though the layout changes like each update .


Right now quest will not connect to anything at all for me, the start of it is loading something and then it says like "could not load blah blah blah"

http://www.connected...sted-sites.html

Your really letting a majority of the world down by using 000webhost.

(I'm ending my super amazing plan soon and buying it from a different dealer while writing a complaint to at&t)

They're actually NitrogenFinger's formats, not mine. Yeah, by all means, go ahead.

I know. I've got my own paid hosting plan and it'll be hosted on that. I'll move across the server when I update Quest.

I've used WAMP and MAMP (the Mac version) for years, but my internet is too shocking to host a public server on it.

Wamp is good but it shouldnt be used on a wifi with a lot of web traffic/people using it.

I have a request though, Maybe let users download the server files and then host there own on wamp or a hosting plan.
This would enable certain servers to have there own web.

Can't there be a setting in Quest to allow normal, HTML websites? There's got to be a way to handle jpeg/png/tiff/svg images...could you have Quest, if it comes across an image file, tell a specialized Quest server to convert it into a readable format, and then send it to Quest? It would take the load off of CC and onto a server with more power and an easier way to do it.

Well... not really. I'll give it a shot. Lots of stuff would be very problematic.
