Hello, My question is fairly simple first look at this old video :
https://www.youtube....h?v=tpqOv7SxkHA Now you can clearly see it´s an old thing and most items do not exist anymore like the web screen ID:755 or wireless computer interface ID:757 and the like. Now I<m playing with Feed the beast : Monster Version 1.0.0 and about the only thing left that I know of that is related is the advanced computer and advanced monitors … I just want to know if it<s still possible to go on the net while in Minecraft like in the video. Thank you. I hope I<ll be able to find this topic back to get an answer if you move it ?

That functionality has never been a part of ComputerCraft itself, but rather is added to it via another mod.

Ohh wow…I´m so sorry the title of the video is misleading and I thought it could be the guys who made computercraft that crew it up lol. And as a second Question but I guess I go RTFM… I´ll ask anyway, When we write any text using both advanced monitor and computers what command should we use to make the text load up automatically with the server ? otherwise it has to loaded each time witch is annoying ;)/> Thank you for your time and even though I could of looked in a manual somewhere I preferred to ask directly since I still need 2 more approval :D/>

Hmm.
So what I understand is that you want to write to the monitor & pc at the same time, not use something life
mon = peripheral.wrap("whatever")
mon.write("Hi")
print("hi")
If so, then you could use this:
mon = peripheral.wrap("whatever")
function writeb(text)
mon.write(text)
print(text)
end
writeb("hello world") -- this will write "hello world" to both screens

If a script is stored in a file called "startup" (on the root of a computer's drive), it should be executed automatically whenever that computer boots. Computers should boot automatically when the MineCraft server loads the chunk they're in, assuming they were booted when they were last unloaded.

ok i'm not too sure about your answers… I'll try and clarify with as much details as possible even if most are useless. Ok, I'm playing on a server witch is a Feed the Beast: Monster version 1.0.0 and they have Computer craft version 1.58. Now the owner tried with like 4 advanced monitor stacked horizontally together to write Welcome that continually passed across the screen and that works fine. The only problem is when the server reboots at like each 12 hours, he/we have to manually go to the advanced computer connected to the monitors and select the small program to make the screen say welcome again. otherwise it stays black …I know it's just a simple little command to make it auto work when the server reboots and that was my original second question, Or maybe you could direct me to some kind of dictionary in existence for all the computercraft // Lua functions and syntaxes possible (that computercraft accept of course). thank you for all your help.

This is not related to lua or cc syntax at all, and rather has to do with how the computers handle files. I'd suggest you re-read Bomb's post.

Tl;dr: Run this command:
mv welcome startup
Change "welcome" to the name of the program.
