Google returns little to nothing and searching these forums results in the same. Could anyone help me figure out what features of a decent web browser the in-game browser (one used in MOTD windows) do not work? As far as I can tell, drop-downs are unusable (appear behind the window) and ReactJS as well (the virtual events are completely unrecognizable it seems, although basic JavaScript seems to work).

It's really as painful as getting a root canal, attempting to side-step the potholes and determine what I can use for a new website I'm developing for my Kreedz servers.

What does not work? An awesome MOTD ajax, sure.

What do you mean by "gettgin a root canal"?

Are you developing a MOTD for "Kreedz servers" and it is a pain in the ass to properly create MOTD's?
If so, yeah it is, can it be easier? I think so, just KISS it.

Another one: attempting to type "_" into a form input performs a paste action instead of entering the character. So much for searching map names.

To your last point, I suppose I will need to render everything server-side and hit the server every time I want to change the display of records (order, sort, paginate, etc.).

I swear I used to be able to use an underscore in my MOTD webpages. This is the first time I've ever seen it do that.

Anyways, you can use many features but obviously not all of them. You can check out a website I created for use in an MOTD here. It uses a javascript-based lazy load for images (only loads images if they are visible). The back end is PHP and data is stored in a mySQL database.

But ultimately, if you want modern features in an MOTD, you'll need to update to a modern game that supports such features (the half-life engine is nearly 20 years old!).
