Hi,

i will try to be as through as i can with this so you can understand it easier.

im not very advanced in programming and thus i am having this problem.

Here is a function that i have. the variables inside this function hold a Cache of data. A string cache at which every time the timer of 100ms is called empties 1000 charactesr of that cache.

now i can use debug trace and everything works well.

now i want to send this string to the chat window.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////


var count_length = 0;
var chk_end = new Boolean(0);

function OnEvent_Timer(TimerId)
{

var send_string = "";

if (TimerId == "send_timer_folder" && chk_end == 0)
{
send_string = final_final_folder.substr(count_length, 1000);
count_length += 1000;

if (send_string.length < 1)
{
chk_end = 1;
count_length = 0;
ChatWnd.SendMessage("no other folders.");   <<<< Error here ( chatwnd object undefined)
}
else
{
ChatWnd.SendMessage(send_string);    <<<< And here here ( chatwnd object undefined)
Debug.Trace(send_string);
send_string = "";
MsgPlus.AddTimer("send_timer_folder",100);
}
}
}

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

my question is, how can i write a function, that is called everytime the timer is up, and still have the ChatWnd object inside so i can use the SendMessage(string) command inside that function?


Thanks

You have to define which window to use. Of what contact you want to send the message to!

Ohh and try to find a better name for the topic! My problem doesn't say much about it!

ok. but that doesnt really help me much.

Ok! How do you choose the window to send the information? probably another function such as OnEvent_WndMessageReceived. In this function you have a variable called ChatWnd so you write a global variable.

code:

---

targetWindow = ChatWnd

---

code:

---

targetWindow.SendMessage("no other folders.");

---

Ok the problem that your having is that ChatWnd isn't defined as anything. If you look at other examples or even a function (example : )

code:

---

OnEvent_ChatWndCreated(
    [object] ChatWnd
);

---

code:

---

var ChatWnd;
