Hey Indy, where do you pull the information about vos from? It is a cool feature! Hiya Big Trev 8

My server reads the feed from @JagexClock: https://twitter.com/JagexClock.
Basically I made an API that talks to my twitter app and that reads the feed, my server cleans out the unwanted tweets from the feed and caches the VoS.

Here's a working example of setting it up in PHP and reading it with javascript. Handy if you don't want to use an oauth library.

I also made a crude pure javascript version that I can share if you like. Though I'm not sure it's up to production standards but it could serve as a template.

The method in the link above is similar to what I did but I went with SQL rather than a flat file for caching. Actually all I really used from that article was how to get bearer token and not have to use oauth.

I might eventually, but right now I have no plans. Was just curious.

I can at least do some excel things!

=SUM(a+b)

Nothing else though

Hoping you're all doing fine ­<3

All good here and I hope all is well for you too

Oh I did a little test and it looks like RS Linkify will auto update in Opera. I still haven't got around to uploading to Opera's official add-ons, but I will eventually do it. As for now it looks as though there will be no problem keeping up to date

Hehe, quite a bit of truth to that pic!

And never be sorry for posting. Your posts are always welcome here

As for the coding, you only get to see the finished results. Believe me, there are times where I really struggle, but no one sees that.
