Ok here's a beta version of the script (still with bugs). If anyone can figure out what's wrong I will be very grateful.

You may see the script as pretty pointless but in the future there will be extended functionality etc

Return an empty string from the ChatWndSendMessage event.

that doesn't seem to be working

I get a "not a valid script file" error when trying to import.

---

Edit: changed the first line to <?xml version="1.0"?>, repackaged and it worked.

Edit 2: After importing, I get "Error: Invalid root in registry key". This can be solved by checking if the user is signed in in the OnEvent_Initialize function, and then if they are call the OnEvent_Signin function passing Messenger.MyEmail. This way the user does not have to re-sign in for the script to work.

Also, one way to solve your removing the text from the text box problem would be to use ChatWnd.EditText_SetCurSel - look in the scripting doc for more info

Thanks, I think I've fixed all the n00bish errors you pointed out , and I got the EditText_SetCurSel working. Here's an updated version of the script...

I get the window whether I press enter or use the send button, and it works either way.

Still getting the registry error though when I use an account who's settings are not saved.

Hmm, thanks for telling me - I'll have (another) look now.

I'm pretty sure it should be working, and seems to have worked for other's that have tried it. Here's the code I'm currently using to check for the registry value:

code:

---

var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
function OnEvent_Initialize(MessengerStart){
try{
    var echeck = Messenger.MyEmail;
}catch(e){
    var echeck = "null";
}
if(echeck=="null"){
    function OnEvent_Signin(Email){
        try{
            Shell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyEmail + "\\enabled");
        }catch(e){
            Shell.RegWrite(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyEmail + "\\enabled","true");
        }
    }
}else{
    try{
        Shell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyEmail + "\\enabled");
    }catch(e){
        Shell.RegWrite(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + Messenger.MyEmail + "\\enabled","true");
    }
}
}

Sorry for all the double postings. Here's a new version which includes an option to only ask you to confirm once when you are first appear offline.
