The overall goal for this script is to send MY phone a text message when a specified contact logs on. In the case of my script it is "skyman_416 at live dotcom"

This script works up until it tries to send the message. The person signs in, a new window for that person gets created, and it tries to send the message. Everything works correctly, but when the new window is created,

code:

---

Messenger.OpenChat(TxtToContact).SendMessage(Email + LogOnMessage);

---

code:

---

var LogOnMessage = " logged on!";
var LogOffMessage = " logged off.";

function OnEvent_Initialize(MessengerStart)
{
    Debug.Trace("**********Messenger Initialized**********");
}
//*****************************************************************
function OnEvent_ContactSignin(Email) {
    var SendToContact = "skyman_416@live.com";
    var TxtToContact = "+0123456789";
    Debug.Trace("[Sign-in] Contact Sign-in [" + Email + "]");
    if (Email !== Messenger.MyEmail) {
        Debug.Trace("[Sign-in] Not my current email");
        Debug.Trace("[Sign-in] [" + Email + "]");
        if (Email == "skyman_416@live.com") {
            if (Messenger.MyStatus == 7) {
                Messenger.OpenChat(TxtToContact).SendMessage(Email + LogOnMessage);
                Debug.Trace("[Sign-in] Message (" + Email + LogOnMessage + ") sent to " + TxtToContact);
            }
        }
    }
}
//*****************************************************************
function OnEvent_Uninitialize(MessengerExit)
{
    Debug.Trace("**********Messenger Uninitialized**********");
}

this is a great idea... maybe it can be done with the option to send you an email too... and not only for online event but for many others events...

I have gotten this to work by sending an email to my mobile phones txting email.

I used the code for sending an email here(added SSL to be able to send through my gmail account):
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=90...d=963672#pid963688
This code allows you to send a message to any email. I just used it for sending it to my phone.

If anybody would like to know how to send an email as a text to their phone they can check out this page:
http://www.sms411.net/2006/07/how-to-send-email-to-phone.html

(script status) I currently have a lot of settings hard coded in, so I need to get a nice GUI set up for options and other things.

Hi there,

I have for a long time now been looking for a way to be notified via an SMS message or email when someone signs onto WLM.  I would love it if someone could get something working and share it.  I'd even be willing to pay a little for something that works.

So, I am trying to learn more, so regarding what you have been working on, how would one even get this installed (or whatever it should be called in this case) so that it would be usable?  Meaning, even though your current script is not working quite the way you desire, how do you get it to kick off?

Again, I would so love to have something like this and have searched for a long time now.  And would love it if you would share information. 

Please feel free to email me at piggieshorts@hotmail.com

Such a script is actually very easy to make.

The hard part is to find a SMS service on the net which supports your phone service provider. This is something you must do yourself, but there are a lot of lists available... (see the second link in the post before yours to get started)

Usually these services are not entirley free. But once you find such a service all you need to do is to send an email (usually) to a specific email adress and you'll recieve the SMS.

So the script simply checks if person x or y signs in, then it sends the sms.

Okay well this is a little different to the original overall goal for this script specific script but i thought i'd throw it in here since this topic is about SMS.
Anyway here goes;

I use free SMS sites quite a lot and i came across one that works 100%.. But i get sick of having to load up my browser and enter all the details over and over (When you see the site you will understand).
So my idea was to write a script directing it to the site with a little interface on msn making it easier and faster to send the SMS, maybe with an Address book in the interface to save numbers / details.
That way all you would need to do is type a small command in any MSN conversation such as '/sms' and that would bring up the SMS interface and allow you to enter all the details with ease and send the SMS.

I hope i explained it clear enough and I've never really looked into whats possible with scripting but by the sounds of things, it looks possible. Would be a huge help.

Oh and i almost forgot heres the website;

http://www.text4free.net/

As you can see you have to enter the number - Select the network provider, enter your message and enter the security code.
It may not seem like much but its gets annoying for lazy people .
As you can see an address book to save the number + network provider would be quite nifty .

Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Edit:
Forgot to mention, if this is possible and someone is willing to make it.. Would it be possible to make it compatible with WLM 8.5 since i do not use / like WLM 9.0. I also use Windows XP x64 Edition, I dont believe WLM 9.0 is compatible with x64.

It does the same thing as sending 11111111111@pci.rogers.com it sends an email-to-sms message where you need to reply to read the message...

Nothing new

Um are you talking about Text4free.. Because if so; You don't need to reply to read the message.
I've used it for some time now and it's worked great. Hope someone is willing to make the script for Messenger Plus .

I think i understand what you're both saying but i've even sent SMS messages to myself and people in Canada and they read them free of charge. Just a small advert on the text, E.g:

Admin@Text4free.net <message here> sent from text4free

Or something similar atleast.
I'm really in dissbelief of what you say about the costs and having to reply to view the message so I'll tell you step by step how i would send a message from text4free;

1. Go to http://www.text4free.net/ (obviously!)

2. Scroll down to 'Send Free SMS' on the homepage. (again pretty obvious)

3. Enter the cellphone number and network. E.g 07***** / O2 (UK) in my case. Ignoring 'Any <country> Provider' at the top of the list, those seem to fail pretty bad and are not connected to text4free.

4. Enter the message (obviously!)

5. Enter security code (obvious again)

6. Push send!

Again i'll mention; The top few listings for the 'Provider' being 'Any <country> Provider' are the only ones that don't work for me (maybe thats what you guys are talking about?). I make sure i know the contacts real provider and select it individually.

Because in many countries you can change providers but keeping your phone number. And since you must know the provider for most (free) online SMS services, you either need to ask your contact what provider he uses, or you must use an online SMS service where you don't need to provide the provider (and those services, the proper ones, are never free).

So I've been working on a GUI for this project after setting it down for a couple of months. I'm wondering if there is an easy way to make a GUI for it.

I am using this to call my new window named 'About'

code:

---

MsgPlus.CreateWnd("About.xml", "About");

---

In terms of editing XML files, there isn't a built-in editor in the Plus! script editor, so I recommend Notepad++.

Also, you can enable and disable controls based on whether a checkbox is ticked like this:

js code:

---

Interop.Call("user32", "EnableWindow", /* window */.GetControlHandle(/* control ID */), /* boolean */);

---

js code:

---

function OnAboutEvent_CtrlClicked(PlusWnd, ControlId)
{
    Interop.Call("user32", "EnableWindow", PlusWnd.GetControlHandle("BtnOk"), PlusWnd.Button_IsChecked("ChkConfirm"));
}

js code:

---

function OnAboutEvent_CtrlClicked(PlusWnd, ControlId)
{
    Interop.Call("user32", "EnableWindow", PlusWnd.GetControlHandle("BtnOk"), PlusWnd.Button_IsChecked("ChkConfirm"));
