Closing a chat window by pinhead on 03-30-2009 at 06:33 PM

Is it possible to close a normal chat window? I found OpenChat, but nothing to close this windows again..
And another question, but I don't think this is possible: Is there a way to reorganize the tabs in the chat window. Like exchanging positions of two tabs and alike?

the first one is possible with ChatWndObj.close(0);

but sorry the second one is not possible... unless you close the windows and re-open them but thats not nice

You have to use the SendMessage API sending WM_CLOSE not ChatWndObj.Close(0);

just a quick question, how exactly would you do this?
SendMessage(ChatWnd.handle, WM_CLOSE,0) but how do you use API in JS?  Forgive me for my ignorance, but I've been wondering how to do this for some time aswell.

jscript code:
Interop.Call('user32','SendMessageW',ChatWnd.Handle,0x10 /* WM_CLOSE */,0,0);

That should do it :)

JScript code:
Interop.Call("User32.dll","DestroyWindow",ChatWnd.Handle);

No SendMessage(W) stuff, just a simple function that does the work for ya.

thanks guys.
didn't know you can use WindowAPI using pure JScript.. kinda dangerous if you think of it lol. Powerful.. I like it lol.

Yes, well, that's why we have people (? or is it just MenthiX?) who moderate submissions to the scripting database :P

EDIT: @SmokingCookie: you can also lop a few bytes off of that one, just have "user32" instead of that and the extension :P

I just love extensions :P

All Windows API functions are available in JScript through the Interop.Call() function, except for those which asynchronous callback functions. See the scripting documentation for more details on the Call() method.
