Ok I've been researching this and so far it looks like the only way to grab a value from Dream Seeker and display it is using BYOND CGI. What I'm wondering is, if there is a tricky way of using Topic() to grab a variable and display it in Dreak Seeker's Browser?? Or a popup window?
Has anyone made use of JS on this? Cause in reading up on BYOND CGI, it sounds more like remote commands and hosting, than being client or server side, which would work for me.
Basically trying to take the stats out of the statpanel and put them in HTML.

Have any idea what the code would look like for this? mob/user/var/Uname = "Bob" Now say I want to grab the text thats in name for the HTML, using client/Topic(), and just print whats in var/Uname into the browser, how would I achive this?

OK.. OFD helped me in Chatterz....
world << browse("name = [name]") This is the code that does what I need it too. It was sooo easy too :P I'm posting this to help anyone else who may someday post a search and mind this thread.

BYOND CGI is a completely different concept; it's for CGI applications, where the entire program is run via CGI. That's not what you're looking for.
But yes, essentially you would be using client/Topic() to do the work.
