  Re: so-called "deep-linking" ruled okay

The world wide web works by URL's, and it is a (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)  
 
  Re: so-called "deep-linking" ruled okay
 
(...) One reason is that it could possibly by-pass any relevant disclaimers that the owner of the web site puts on the front page. Are you still bound to the agreement made when you click "I agree" if you never see that page? Ben Roller (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Nah, nothing as heinous as a stack error - it was the NoDefClass (?) error - basically it wasn't finding the ice stuff.

Wow. Not one reply. Two people (including myself) gave the original message a score of 100, though. Did anyone download and try the client? Was the cold response the result of my presentation, or did the app just bite? Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 29-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
