OT - MSN Messenger scripting from a web page

Hello all,

first i apologize for this off-topic, but i've not been able to find a more proper forum...

There seem to be methods to, say, add a contact to the messenger via script from a web page. I've found few samples around, but have not been able to find a reference for it.

Might anyone please provide a link to some (official) reference for scripting the messenger from a web page?

Thanks a lot in advance. -LV

LV,

The ability to start a conversation, add a contact, or launch an activity application from a URL was added in MSN Messenger 7.5 which shipped in August. I don't believe we have documented the MSN: protocol yet.

Here is a link to a previous post that explains how to add a contact to the contact list, or start a conversation with someone not on your contact list.

Launching an Activity APP is documented in the Activity API SDK.
