This function sets the rendering state of a browser.

Important

May cause issues with browser rendering on PC with low RAM #1567. It's might be better to completely release browser, instead of pausing it, when its not needed.

OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!

Code Examples

Example 1 Example 2 (OOP)

client

--In order to render the browser on the full screen, we need to know the dimensions.
local screenWidth, screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize()

--Let's create a new browser in remote mode.
local window = guiCreateWindow(0, 0, screenWidth, screenHeight, "Webbrowser", false)
local browser = guiCreateBrowser(0, 0, 800, 600, false, false, false, window)

-- The event onClientBrowserCreated will be triggered, after the browser has been initialized.
-- After this event has been triggered, we will be able to load our URL
local theBrowser = guiGetBrowser(browser) -- Get the browser element from gui-browser
addEventHandler("onClientBrowserCreated", theBrowser,
  function()
    -- After the browser has been initialized, we can load www.youtube.com
    loadBrowserURL(source, "http://www.youtube.com")
  end
)

addCommandHandler ("pause", -- Add command named 'pause'
  function (player, command, value)
      setBrowserRenderingPaused (theBrowser, value == 'true')
  end
)
