Tabs are embedded websites on the Messenger client, set by the server.


2009

By WLM 2009, tabs are retrieved in a completely different manner compared to how it was performed on versions 8.5 and below.

In WLM 2009 MsgrConfig: 

<LocalizedConfig Market="fr-FR">
   ...
   <TabConfig>
      <slots>
         <URL id="1">
            http://rad.msn.com/ADSAdClient31.dll?GetAd=&PG=IMFFTA
         </URL>
         <URL id="2">
            http://rad.msn.com/ADSAdClient31.dll?GetAd=&PG=IMFFTB
         </URL>
         <URL id="3">
            http://rad.msn.com/ADSAdClient31.dll?GetAd=&PG=IMFFTC
         </URL>
         <URL id="4">
            http://rad.msn.com/ADSAdClient31.dll?GetAd=&PG=IMFFTD
         </URL>
         <URL id="5">
            http://rad.msn.com/ADSAdClient31.dll?GetAd=&PG=IMFFTE
         </URL>
         ...
      </slots>
   </TabConfig>
   ...
</LocalizedConfig>

LocalizedConfig now carries its own TabConfig node, which carries a slots node defining all URLs WLM must load to retrieve each individual tab configuration.

Each URL defined is expected to return the following response, which has a similar format to the old MsgrConfig tab nodes: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> 
<ads>
    <tabad>
        <image>http://example.com/path/to/image.png</image>
        <name>name</name>
        <type>type</type>
        <tooltip>tooltip</tooltip> 
        <contenturl>http://example.com/path/to/content</contenturl> 
        <hiturl>http://example.com/hiturl</hiturl> 
        <siteid>0</siteid> 
        <notificationid>0</notificationid> 
    </tabad>
</ads>

Important nodes to note are image, name, tooltip, contenturl, and hiturl:

  • image - Icon the tab will display on Messenger
  • name - Name of the tab’s content (presumably for when the content is opened)
  • tooltip - Text the tab will display in its tooltip
  • contenturl - URL to load content from for the tab
  • hiturl - Assumed to aid in tracking how many people access the tab

8.5 and prior

In 8.5 and prior's MsgrConfig, it gets TabConfig from the MsgrConfig itself. 

<TabConfig>
