To all the people that said it wasn't feasable to make one since it took years for others to develop IE/Mozilla,etc.. blablah.....
Well here u go... done in couple weeks!.. haha...

Mad Props to ysbox!! Great work! =)

I have PAL xbox with evox 3935, standard av connection.
No Go.

BoksLinks manages only to Freeze after launching it from the evox menu.

doeboi: People said it would be years to write a web browser upto the standard of IE/Mozilla ... and they were right. This browser is nowhere upto the same standard, and it hasn't been written from scratch but ported so obviously that would be quicker.

& you can even post here using it!
although this took 10 minutes!

Your DNS server isn't properly configured. If you get newsfeeds in Avalaunch that's probably because the site is referenced by its IP address so there is no host name resolution. Just give Avalaunch the IP of a DNS server, your gateway probably works, else try one of your ISP's.

Thanks for the quick response.  It works perfect now.  Please implement keyboard support in the future.

There isn't a way to disable HD mode in ms dash

Go to settings ->video

Change 720p and 1080i to no.....

[spyd4r]

i am using HD pack... but with all high def signals disabled... just using 480i...... i am getting a black screen only..

i'll try with the advanced and regular pack tomorrow

[ysbox]

I'll fix those HD bugs ASAP, it's just flags that I forgot to set. Also spotted a bug with PAL-60 (wrong screen resolution) that might prevent it from running in this mode.
I'll also make it fall back to reliable 640x480 on failure so it hopefully won't hang anymore when starting.

I'm making up my mind right now whether I'll make a quick fix just for that or make another release later, maybe with some features (re)enabled - keyboard support, downloads...

Was not exactly looking forward to cover this area - it's insanely much work to get it working properly. Kudos guys, well done. Not tried it myself, but I don't think we'll be working on webbrowser anytime soon as long as you keep covering the needs.  Let us know if we can help out in any ways.

Ok. I am very eager to get the new linksboks program to work on my xbox to browse the web.

Problem:
When I try to access a site i get 'Host not found'

I realise this could be for amny reasons. But I'll go through what i have done. Im also using Evolutionx latest version.

1. I can already FTP so all them settings are up.
2. As i have a USB modem i've setup the Internet Connection Sharing and everything is linked up nicely.
3. I have the DNS settings for Freeserve setup.
4. I DON'T have the defaultgateway setting up as I dont know what it is for 512k Freeserve Brodaband. Appreciate if someone could tell me!

Ok. SO help would be GREATLY appreciated

*Update* Trying to type in freeserve proxy (www-cache.freeserve.com:8080). But theres a prob. How do I get the keypad up when typing in this box?!

*Update* Managed to get it in. Still same error. All firewalls are off etc.

Thanks for reading,

Adam

. It does not have an ethernet port on it. just USB and phone soket.

Out of interest i typed in ipconfig /all

I found out the defaultgateway for freeserve. Put it in my xbox. Same error.

Im getting quite annoyed.

Wow. Thanks for the info. Sorry to be annoying but could you make it more simple. i'm using Internet Connection Sharing with a normal USB ADSL modem . It does not have an ethernet port on it. just USB and phone soket. Out of interest i typed in ipconfig /all I found out the defaultgateway for freeserve. Put it in my xbox. Same error.

If you are using INTERNET CONNECTION SHARING... are you shure that it is configured properly on your PC.. and I'm guessing that you are using a CROSS-OVER cable to connect your XBOX to your PC.... BTW.. even though you may be able to FTP to you XBOX from your PC... this doesn't have anything to do with internet connection sharing, so the FTP would still be able to work even if the internet connection sharing didn't... ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) works well, but it can be a bugger to get it working properly.. and transfering ports with it is just a nightmare (well.. not for everyone, but for the average user).  Anyway.. try to configure your computer as following (it probably already is, if ICS is setup properly)..

IP: 192.168.1.1  SUBNETMASK: 255.255.255.0 GATEWAY: (should be left empty)

then on you xbox use the following values

IP: 192.168.1.2 SUBNETMASK: 255.255.255.0 GATEWAY: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 4.2.2.2    DNS2: 4.2.2.3

make sure you have your dashboards network configured for static and not dhcp in this case.. (how ever if ICS is working properly.. you should be able to use DHCP on you xbox without a trouble)

Just out of curiosity, why would you make the dns addresses 4.2.2.2? I've never heard of such a thing.. or is that an actual dns server out there? Maybe, cause I can ping it. But I've found that the pc can can handle all the dns requests, as long as its has the right dns from the isp.
