What's wrong with my code? by xVengeance on 03-18-2009 at 03:21 AM

Hi, I'm new to MsgPlus! Scripting and I was wondering what was wrong with my code.

What it's SUPPOSED to do is get the number of active chats and display it in your Display Message.

But seeing as how the Documentation was so wonderful in not showing any examples, I'm going to need some 3rd party help.

code:
function OnEvent_Initialize(MessengerStart)
{
    MsgPlus.AddTimer("WindowCount", 5000);
    var Windows = Messenger.CurrentChats;
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage ("Chats open: " + Windows);
}

function OnEvent_Uninitialize(MessengerExit)
{
   
}

function OnEvent_Timer(WindowCount)
{
    MsgPlus.AddTimer("WindowsCounts", 5000);
    var Windows = Messenger.CurrentChats;
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage ("Chats open: " + Messenger.CurrentChats);
}

function OnEvent_Timer(WindowsCounts)
{
    var Windows = Messenger.CurrentChats;
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage ("Chats open: " + Messenger.CurrentChats);
}

code:
function OnEvent_Initialize(MessengerStart)
{
    MsgPlus.AddTimer("WindowCount", 5000);
    var Windows = Messenger.CurrentChats;
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage ("Chats open: " + Windows);
}

function OnEvent_Uninitialize(MessengerExit)
{
   
}

function OnEvent_Timer(WindowCount)
{
    MsgPlus.AddTimer("WindowsCount", 5000);
    var Windows = Messenger.CurrentChats;
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage ("Chats open: " + Messenger.CurrentChats);
}

Unless you want the script to set your PSM only three times (on initialize, at 5000 and 10000 seconds), you should consider updating your script ;)
(for now, I'm assuming Messenger.CurrentChats shows the chat window count. I can't check since I don't have messenger and the Plus! documentation here :P)

I just want to set a timer to make it update every 5-10 seconds.

js code:
function OnEvent_Initialze(bMessengerStart) {
    if (Messenger.MyStatus < 2) return false;
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = 'Chats open: '+Messenger.CurrentChats.Count);
}

function OnEvent_ChatWndCreated(pChatWnd) {
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = 'Chats open: '+Messenger.CurrentChats.Count);
}

function OnEvent_ChatWndDestroyed(pChatWnd) {
    Messenger.MyPersonalMessage = 'Chats open: '+Messenger.CurrentChats.Count-1);
}

That would do it...
