htmlLoad works with URL's as well as html files.

Killzone Kid

While surprisingly htmlLoad does work with URLs as pointed above, the operation is blocking, meaning the whole game will freeze until the operation is complete. Therefore it is not recommended to use this command in such way.

Example use of URL can be found in BIS_fnc_GUInewsfeed with the function browser.

(Arma 3) In order to use URLs, they must be included in CfgCommands -> allowedHTMLLoadURIs. In order to use URIs with params a wildcard * character is supported:

Script Example:

_newsOnline = "http://alivemod.com/alive_news.php?map=" + _map + "&mission=" + _mission + "&player=" + _player;
_ctrlHTML htmlLoad _newsOnline;

Config Example:

class CfgCommands {
   allowedHTMLLoadURIs[] += {
      "http://alivemod.com/alive_news.php*"
   };
};
