Modification Help / Re: TCP Objects

you are practically stealing here. The Google Translate API is suppose to be a paid service.

Youre wrong. The google translator API that you pay for is on a charachter basis, I believe $15 per MILLION charachters. Also note that it's priced that way because the API was created for people who need to use it a very large ammount, on the bill of tens of thousands of charachters each day. And besides, google wont care if someone lightly uses the browser API, it's not even as much as using it to translate a website. I literally figured that out in 2 minutes, if google REALLY cared, they would've put some sort of protection into ot, not just leave it wide open.

No, you don't understand. The # value is not handled on the server-side. It is a client/browser mechanism. Try going to here and finding "yes" - it doesn't work because the TCP object is simply fetching the markup, it's not handling JavaScript and hence can not use the hashbang.

No, you don't understand.
If you have google chrome (which people should have, because internet explorer sucks) like I do, then you can track the download of files to the client browser.
If you go into google translate and translate something, two downloaded files will pop up. A file called t, and one called csi. if you look at the T file, it contains all the information for the translation, and you'd also notice that chrome tells you that it was obtained through a url GET request! And lookie lookie, the text YOU ENTERED is in that request! That means that javascript only handles parsing the output information.

Now, I tried translating "Hello! How are you doing?" into spanish, and this is the response I got:

Code: [Select]

[[["¡Hola! ","Hello!","",""],["¿Cómo te va ?","How are you doing?","",""]],,"en",,[["¡Hola!",[5],1,0,585,0,3,0],["¿Cómo te va",[9],1,0,474,0,4,0],["?",[10],0,0,474,4,5,0]],[["Hello !",5,[["¡Hola!",585,1,0],["Hola",0,1,0]],[[0,6]],"Hello!"],["How are you doing",9,[["¿Cómo te va",474,1,0],["Cómo estás",0,1,0],["How are you doing",0,1,0]],[[0,17]],"How are you doing?"],["?",10,[["?",474,0,0]],[[17,18]],""]],,,[["en"]],16]

All on one line.
However, notice that the translation IS in there! It just needs to be parsed out. And on top of that, the URL GET request is immensely easy to use as well!
This was the EXACT URL I used to translate the text:

Code: [Select]

http://translate.google.com/translate_a/t?client=t&text=Hello!%20How%20are%20you%20doing%3F&hl=en&sl=auto&tl=es

The arguments:
client=t
Don't change this. It won't work if you change that.

text=something
I'm sure you can figure it out.

hl=en
The source language. en is english.

tl=es
The target language. es is spanish. (español)

sl=auto
Just leave that. I have no idea what it does.


If you copy-paste that into your URL bar, you should get the exact same output that I got!

Just note that any spaces are replaced with %20, and any special charachters have to be URL encoded.

If you do not wish for messages to be sent to our server and then redirected to your dedicated server for easy usage, you must port-forward so that there is an open port to send all the connections through.

Now i'm even MORE confused! >.<

Who is elm?

He's made 19 posts, and been registered for around 2 months.
He has more posts in coding help than he has in all other sections combined, and there are only 3 other sections he's actually posted in.
For every around 6 posts he's made, he's made one topic. That's 2.5x more than average.
And this.

In conclusion, I have no flipping idea who this guy is.

Security (Requires port forwarding for anything remote)

What's this about?

Another way would be to use optional key-pair-based encryption, so the proxy can't see the actual data, at the cost of scheduling.

and what in the hell is this about??

it would be cool if you culd use or even connect to cleverbot's server or use cleverbot's script to it learns

Last person to do that almost wound up with a lawsuit.
Besides, I (partly) reverse-engineered the javascript on the cleverbot page, and there is a very tough Verification code that is required for use, that is IMPOSSIBLE to replicate in torque.

Is he like Blockland's first conspiracy theorist?

Not even close.
Have you seen the topic that suggests badspot can force himself super admin on any server? Or how about the one that says that badspot can join any server, even if someone bans him?
