I found out about this problem when I couldn't figure out why my script wasn't working.

NOTE : Only happens with the new SP3 Timestamps

If you are using a OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage (and possibly other functions aswel) and you compare the Origin to Messenger.MyName to find out if the message was from you. It will get Messenger.MyName alright, but when  it gets the origin, it includes the time stamp.

So, Origin != Messenger.MyName

Anyone know any possible fixes?

Looks like there is going to be conflicts every time TB adds more features that change the messages received..... Let us hope that TB fore-warns us of possible upcoming problems so we ca release updates for scripts to minimise conflicts (it would be nice, but I doubt it will happen).  But this still doesn't fix the problem with old scripts that don't get updated and when people do not update their scripts as well.

Maybe we should just hope and pray that TB doesn't make any updates that might cause problems instead....

I don't think TB is aware of this problem, but I doubt he will change anything because it will be hard to implement timestamps in a different way...

Try to use this code

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd,Origin,Message,MessageKind )
{var Contacts = ChatWnd.Contacts
var Contact = new Array()
var e = new Enumerator(Contacts)
var i =0
for(;!e.atEnd();e.moveNext()){
Contact[i] = e.item().Name
Debug.Trace(Contact[i])
i++}
for(var y=0;y<Contact.length;y++){
if (Origin==Contact[y]){
ChatWnd.SendMessage("OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK")}}
};

Note that this will only work to look for received messages sent by someone else. You can't use it to modify the way your own messages are displayed on your side, because ChatWnd.Contacts only include the contacts in a chat window except the active Messenger user. Therefore, you can't use that to compare it to your name.

---

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd,Origin,Message,MessageKind )
{var Contacts = ChatWnd.Contacts
var Contact = new Array()
var e = new Enumerator(Contacts)
var AmI = new Boolean()
var i =0
Debug.Trace("Chatting with ")
for(;!e.atEnd();e.moveNext()){
Contact[i] = e.item().Name
Debug.Trace(Contact[i])
i++}
for(var y=0;y<Contact.length;y++){
if (Origin==Contact[y]){
AmI=false}else{
AmI=true
break}
}
Debug.Trace("Message: " + Message)
Debug.Trace("Have i written this message???" + AmI)
}

---

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd,Origin,Message,MessageKind )
{var time = new Date()
var hours = time.getHours()
var minutes = time.getMinutes()
var seconds = time.getSeconds()
var Myformattednick = "[" + hours + "." + minutes + "." + seconds + "]" + " " + Messenger.MyName
Debug.Trace(Myformattednick)
Debug.Trace(Origin)
if (Myformattednick!=Origin){
//do anything
}else{//do else
}
}

I'd assume its the same (or similar) time tags to MsgPlus Live.

Time Tags

Enclose text in single quotes. Example: "HH':'mm" will produce "11:40" for 11:40am.

    * h - Hours with no leading zero for single-digit hours; 12-hour clock.
    * hh - Hours with leading zero for single-digit hours; 12-hour clock.
    * H - Hours with no leading zero for single-digit hours; 24-hour clock.
    * HH - Hours with leading zero for single-digit hours; 24-hour clock.
    * m - Minutes with no leading zero for single-digit minutes.
    * mm - Minutes with leading zero for single-digit minutes.
    * s - Seconds with no leading zero for single-digit seconds.
    * ss - Seconds with leading zero for single-digit seconds.
    * t - One character time-marker string, such as A or P.
    * tt - Multicharacter time-marker string, such as AM or PM.

Date Tags

Enclose text in single quotes. Example: "dd'/'MM" will produce "18/10" for October 18th.

    * d - Day of month as digits with no leading zero for single-digit days.
    * dd - Day of month as digits with leading zero for single-digit days.
    * ddd - Day of week as a three-letter abbreviation.
    * dddd - Day of week as its full name.
    * M - Month as digits with no leading zero for single-digit months.
    * MM - Month as digits with leading zero for single-digit months.
    * MMM - Month as a three-letter abbreviation.
    * MMMM - Month as its full name.
    * yy - Year as last two digits, but with leading zero for years less than 10.
    * yyyy - Year represented by full four digits.

Actually if you want the format I would recommend you look at this page.

Thats the page I was looknig for. Kept getting search errors.

I'll see if I can make a regexp for it, but I think I'll get problems. So in the mean time, could you post the first one, if you can do regexp?

So you'll need to put the TimeStamp before the Message aswell. It is stored here -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\iAvatars.com\StuffPlug\Messenger.MyUserID\szTimestamp. Place that before the ChatOnly Name and then use Regular Expressions to match the HH mm ss, etc .

---

I found a way to do it.
Replace tt, before t in the time stamp string.

code:

---

if (!Origin.match(Messenger.MyName))
{
    // The msg wasn't from you, do stuff here.
}

---

Seems to work alright, is it flawed in a major way?

Can't you just use the second code Cookie posted?

code:

---

var aSent = new Array();

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message) {
    aSent[ChatWnd.Handle] = Message;
}

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind) {
    if (aSent[ChatWnd.Handle] === Message) {
        delete aSent[ChatWnd.Handle];
    } else {
        // a contact sent the message, so do whatever
    }
}

---

I tried to use that, but it didnt seem to work ....

Cookies first code though, returns the Messenger.MyName if no chat only name was found. And then with some regexp from dt.

code:

---

if (!Origin.match(new RegExp("^" + sMyChatName.replace(/([\[\]\|\)\(\*\?\+\.\$\/])/g, '\\$1')))){
    // Yeah yeah yeah, do stuff
}

---

code:

---

function GetUserName ( Origin )
{
var regPath = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\iAvatars.com\\StuffPlug\\" +Messenger.MyUserId +"\\szTimestamp";
var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
var szTimestamp;

  if ( szTimestamp = Shell.RegRead ( regPath ) )
    { var nOrigin;
      nOrigin = Origin.substr(szTimestamp.length+1);
      return ( nOrigin );
    }
  return ( Origin );
}

You've been a member since 04 and this was your first post?

Nice work, looks reasonable. I'll test it later.

This returns a cleaned Username

code:

function UnStamp(StampedNick)
{
    if (StampedNick != "")
    {
        try
        {
            if (Messenger.MyUserId != undefined)
            {
                var WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
                var SPRegPath = "HKLM\\SOFTWARE\\iAvatars.com\\StuffPlug\\"
                try
                {
                    var Splug = true;
                    Splug = WshShell.RegRead(SPRegPath + "DisabledFor" + Messenger.MyUserId) == 0;
                } catch {}
                if (Splug)
                {
                    if (WshShell.RegRead(SPRegPath + Messenger.MyUserId + "\\TimeStamps"))
                    {
                        var StampFormat = WshShell.RegRead(SPRegPath + Messenger.MyUserId + "\\szTimestamp");
                        if (StampFormat != "")

                            return Nick;
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        } catch {}
    }
    return StampedNick;
}

Works for me. Dosnt work for a chat only name... yet...

TimeStamp format as follows:

h = 12 Hour
hh = 12 Hour with leading zero
m = Minutes
mm = Minutes with leading zero
s = Seconds
ss = Seconds with leading zero
t = A/P

Ah, to true.

code:

---

var Nick = StampedNick.split(" ").slice(StampFormat.split(" ").length).join(" ");

---

I think you mean "H:mm |", anyway that wouldn't matter.
then Nick would be made like this:
StampFormat = "H:mm |";
aStampFormat = StampFormat.split(" ");           //array: H:mm,|
StampLength = StampFormat.split(" ").length;  //value: 2

StampedNick = "11:59 | <insert nick here>";
aStampedNick = StampedNick.split(" ");            //array: 11:59,|,<insert,nick,here>

aNick = aStampedNick.slice(StampLength);     //remove the timestamp (in this case 2 space-separated character blocks, since StampLength = 2)
Nick = aNick.join(" ");                                       //put the nickname back together in a string.

put all these steps together and you get
var Nick = StampedNick.split(" ").slice(StampFormat.split(" ").length).join(" ");

I hope that makes it clear

Forgot to come back here >_<

Yeah that makes sense.
Ill try write it into a class file, that removes timestamp and returns original name original WLM name.
