so if a client closes the motd panel I send to him using:

PHP Code:

ShowMOTDPanel(client, "Youtube:", <myYoutubeLink>, MOTDPANEL_TYPE_URL); 


the youtube vid keeps playing in the background.. how to prevent that?

edit: and 50% of the time the youtube controls are unclickable... is there any way to fix that as well?

im pretty sure that you can set a panel's okay button to send a command client side, with that you coulkd make it do sm_stopyoutube with would send a hidden url that would stop the youtube video

ty vm! according to psychonic's dynamic motd plugin you can simply hook "closed_htmlpage".. ill try that out tmr!

great idea, I can even set when the video should stop playin if I embedded it in a html page..
so I just throw the page on the server and do it like this? :

PHP Code:

ShowMOTDPanel(client, "Youtube:", <PathToHtmlPage>, MOTDPANEL_TYPE_FILE);

That doesn't work in at least CSS, TF2, and ND.

There are a set 6 commands that you can send, identified by a numeric index.

From my plugin,

enum /* Ep2vMOTDCmd */ {
    Cmd_None,
    Cmd_JoinGame,
    Cmd_ChangeTeam,
    Cmd_Impulse101,
    Cmd_MapInfo,
    Cmd_ClosedHTMLPage,
    Cmd_ChooseTeam,
};

closed_htmlpage won't automatically get send unless you send 5 (Cmd_ClosedHTMLPage) as the "cmd" value. ShowMOTDPanel doesn't send any cmd value by default, but you can copy it (it's a stock) and it that into your own version.

A good method I've seen is hook player_team, and then send about:blank to them.
