L2J Server

OK this has been happening as long as i use l2j. When for example im making html tables and theres an error in it (mostly typo) when i try ingame to open that html window, my hard drive goes into 100% usage and everything stucks, making me to hard reset my pc. Can you do something about it? Like when its happening instead of the pc crashing to get an error that the html code is wrong?

For that you would need a HTML checker on server side which is impossible. Best option get a good HTML plugin for Eclipse which will show you errors.

I see, thanks.

Why impossible?

Its not impossible but its something we don't need using notepad++ and correct indentation will help you out solve errors.

That's what i meant.

Actually I do think I have enough knowledge about L2 HTML and I could write such a checker I believe.

However: it's not only invalid HTML, but also if you attempt to display too much content at once. I know there should've been some kind of checker whether the resulting string actually fits into the packet, but for some reason that check did not work for me.

Further more there are a few "hidden" problems - like the fact, that "action"-attribute of a or button is not allowed to exceed 255 characters (I think it's 255 and not 256). Also having a table with rows, but not cells, will cause a client-exception, because apparently empty rows are not supported.

I could write a helper class or a code it straight into NpcHtmlMessage. However: this isn't a good idea, because most of the restrictions (except the packet size limit) apply to communityboard (ShowBoard) as well.
