If I remember right you can at-least show more characters by putting your .html document to your website and iframe it in your motd.

example for motd:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<iframe src="www.yoursite.com">
</body>
</html>

You can't change the character limit of the MOTD. (. . .)

What are you trying to do? It may be possible with PHP depending on what you are doing.

Using a meta-refresh is actually better but there is one limitation that might force you to use an iframe. Therefore, an iframe should be the last resort.

Thanks for not being specific.

But, if there is a lot of information that needs to be dynamically inserted into the page then your best bet is to use a database and have a PHP script just access that. Then, all you need to do is direct the player to the PHP page with a unique identifier (SteamID) as a parameter.

There is nothing on this website to do what you want. You would need to get a webserver with PHP, an SQL database, a plugin to update the SQL database, then write the PHP script to get the info from the database. Not exactly easy to do.

The best thing you can do without all that is to just try to get it all within the character limit (granted I have no clue how much info you are referring to).
