hi
how can i use a sound when i write a message?

for example when i write (Please) it plays a sound
i really need this code ( It's my school project )
thx

Do you mean how do you play a sound on your local computer when you type a message or are you wanting to play a sound on your contact's computer when you type a specific message?

The first one is possible the second one both would need the script.

You will need to give us more details on how this is supposed to work so we can point you in the correct direction.

first, thanks for trying to help , i wish you continue with me

OK I didn't understand if the second one isn't possible
I wish to know each one how I can do it if it's possible

and here is the code

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message){
    switch (Message){
        case "/sstart":
            sEnabled = true
            return '';
        case "/sstop":
            sEnabled = false;
            return '';
        default:
            if (sEnabled = true){
                Message = Message.replace(/that/gi,"ðæt");
                return "" +Message;
        }

OK i need the letter in red to be spoken after i send it
where should I write the code and how

thanks a lot,
Omar

You still need to tell us a bit more about what exactly you want to achieve here.

• What exactly do you want to be played?  Do you want the message to be read out, or a specific sound?
  
• Do you want to hear the sound, or do you want the contact to hear it?

jscript code:

• What is the replace line for?  Do you want to play the sound if the replacement occurs in the message?

Also, you should use [code=js] for syntax highlighting when posting your code here. 

sry about the code cuz I'm new

OK, i need the word (that) to be played for the one who I'm talking with after i write it
I wish it could be the message I've written, but there's no problem to be a specific sound that I've recorded
the replace line is for replacing the word to another word, the same word i need to hear

thank you.

If you're talking about text-to-speech, I've written a script to do just that, using Windows's default TTS engine. It narrates your contact's messages with the option of saying display names as well as your own messages. Hopefully this'll help, but as it's for your school project it might not be the best of solutions. Still, you can take a look through the code if you want and adapt it to how you like, just ask and I can send it to you

that's exactly what I want
it's not necessary to be my school project , it's just an idea
please send it to me , I'll me so grateful
sorry for the delay
and I'm waiting

Some basic (and a bit more advanced) examples of using the Windows Speech API in JScript:

jscript code:

---

var oVoice = new ActiveXObject("SAPI.SpVoice");

with (oVoice) {
    Voice = GetVoices()[0];
    Volume = 100;

    // basic example
    Rate = 1;
    Speak("Hello. This is a basic example of the speech Windows API");

    // XML example, changing pitch
    Rate = -2;
    Speak('<pitch middle="-25">Hello, I am a robot</pitch>' ,8);

    // XML example, using some other tags
    Rate = 0;
    Speak('<pitch absmiddle="30"><rate absspeed="-2">Now I\'m going to use a whining voice to spell the word: school<silence msec="500"/><rate speed="-3"><spell>school</spell></rate></rate></pitch>', 8);

    // XML example, difference in pronunciations
    Rate = 0;
    Speak('Did you <partofsp part="verb">record</partofsp> that <partofsp part="noun">record</partofsp>?',8);
}

You can do a lot more though.

sorry for my late answer

now how can I get this sound when I type it ?
where should I put the code ?

You should use the OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage() function.  Define the ActiveX object globally (outside any functions).  Then you can pass the Message parameter to oVoice.Speak() within the message event.
