Is it possible? Is there any security issue? I am thinking of releasing this hack, but I am not sure about the demands and security issue on this.

History:

Originally, I have window media files played directly (inline) in phpbb. When I moved to vb, I tried to seek help from vb.com to modify their attachment system without success. I understand that Vb's attachment system for security purpose. Therefore, I have to find other means to achieve what I want. I come up with this hack when my board is at its infancy stage. It probably still is infancy because, it is used as a test and fun board when I am at work .


Requirement:

This hack might not work on all system due to different configuration, platform, and such. I will try to help you all as much as I can.

This hack will use your board attachment system to run mp3, wma, wmv, flash files. It is a bit server intensive. So be warned


Security Risk:

It has been known that flash files can be used to exploit and compromise certain securities on user computer. You might want to verify your flash attachment before enable flash playing inline on your forum.

I know this is not the forum for it, but I want to see if the hack is demanded.

I think your best way to judge demand is to place your hack in beta.

When you attach window media files, real media, wmv, flash in vb, most likely they are not played within your posts. They will be in attachment for download.
