why can't we link to local files with ui html?

[big dog status 2]

Am I losing my mind or is the only way to link to stylesheet, or a image, in ui html, is by uploading the file on your server??

 

C:\newbots\ctfuPoster\ui\style.css - no dice

http://domain.com/ui/style.css - works..

 

If this is the f'ng case I need to rewrite most of my bot. [insert many f words here]

Yes, its a shame that we cannot do that.

What i do is put all my css codes inside the html.

Just a heads-up: I did that myself, but it actually loads much slower (which is strange since it doesn't need any GET requests). Mine was quite a huge code, but some elements in the final bot (after compilation) weren't loaded properly, but when I used the URL approach everything was fine. No, it wasn't a problem with my code, I triple checked.

I also tried

<style>{$read file("D:\\ubot stuff\\forms css3\\new css3 stuff\\css\\style.css")}</style>

Best solution was still the URL approach. Go figure...

If your images are not too big you can base64 encode them and use them that way...

Thanks guys, I love ubot but F.

 

I pretty much have wasted a few work days, I have experienced the UI Html feature for the first and last time.

Lazy botter - The bot scrapes facebook videos, uploads them to youtube and then creates a wordpress post. I'm using ffmpeg to generate the images so I'm not sure if your solution will work, but thanks anyway.
