When creating scripts for MsgPlus, the API is used with JScript, which is microsoft's uhhh.... 'bastardization' of Javascript. There are things you can do by calling dlls from Windows and there are also things you can do by creating plugins, which I'm less knowledgeable about.

Thanks tribbium

I'm great in VB6, good in VB8, ok in C# and crap at the rest lol. Python is solid

Also, I'm learning PHP now :]

<? php
$mark; = 'Mark "The Monsta Coda" Eriksson' ?>
<html>
<title>This is my title --> <? php echo; $mark ?></title>
</html>

Something like that!
