The functions listed below are general web functions that can be used on all target platforms:

• url_open
  
• url_open_ext
  
• url_open_full
  
• url_get_domain
  
• http_request
• http_get
• http_get_file
• http_post_string

Apart from the general functions listed above, the HTML5 target has some additional web functions that are specifically designed to be used by the games that target it:

• browser_height
  
• browser_width
  
• browser_input_capture
  
• webgl_enabled
  
• clickable_exists
  
• clickable_add
  
• clickable_add_ext
  
• clickable_change
  
• clickable_change_ext
  
• clickable_set_style
  
• clickable_delete
  
• analytics_event
  
• analytics_event_ext
  
• os_browser
• http_get_request_crossorigin
• http_set_request_crossorigin

Apart from these functions for the HTML5 target module, there is also a special JavaScript variable that can be used on those rare occasions when the contents of the html5game folder are stored in a completely different place (URL). Normally this path is hard-coded in the JavaScript file and is relative to the location from where the JavaScript is called, but you can set the variable g_GameMakerHTML5Dir before the call to the game script and the game will be run from the newly defined location. For example:

<script>var g_GameMakerHTML5Dir = "http://mygamealternatedirectory.com/";</script>
