If you're so smart, write him one with a login to run notepad then, to show him how

steal someone elses code, i'm busy working on weblets

ok, lets get back....

could anyone tell me why this code doesn't work?

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind){
var Contacts = ChatWnd.Contacts;
var e = new Enumerator(Contacts);

for(; !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext()){
var Contact = e.item();
if (Contact.Email == xxx@yyy.zzz) {
if(Message == "!runNotepad"){
ChatWnd.SendMessage("/run c:\\windows\\notepad.exe");
}
}
}


}

You're not setting an initial condition in your for() loop nor are you treating the email you are checking for as a string. You're also not actually checking if the user who sent you the message is xxx@yyy.zzz but if that user is within the conversation, this means that anyone in the conversation would be able to type !runNotepad (not just xxx@yyy.zzz) - I provided a little bit of extra protection by checking nicknames as well (although this still can be fooled). Also, I recommend putting the if() statement checking for a message outside the check-for-contact loop to reduce unnecessary processing every time a user sends you a message.
Try this;

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind){
    if(Message == "!runNotepad") {
        CheckAndRun('xxx@yyy.zzz', "/run c:\\windows\\notepad.exe", ChatWnd, Origin);
    }
}

function CheckAndRun(strEmail, strRun, ChatWnd, Origin) {
    var Contacts = ChatWnd.Contacts;

    for(var e = new Enumerator(Contacts); !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext()){
        var Contact = e.item();
        if (Contact.Email == 'xxx@yyy.zzz' && Origin == Contact.Name) {
            ChatWnd.SendMessage(strRun);
        }
    }
}

Hi,
Can someone please tell me how to fix my script so that it doesn't send the message to the contact, if you get what i mean.

Heres the Script:


function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message)
{
        if(Message == "!wmp")
        {
                ChatWnd.SendMessage("/run C:\\Program Files\\Windows Media Player\\wmplayer.exe");
        }
}

function OnEvent_Uninitialize(MessengerExit)
{
}

wlmcrap, reading the documentation can be useful - return the new value;

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd, Message)
{
        if(Message == "!wmp")
        {
                ChatWnd.SendMessage("/run C:\\Program Files\\Windows Media Player\\wmplayer.exe");

                return '';
        }
}

sorry I thought that it would be something like that, but i'm new in javascript and i'm only in year 7.


Now it doesn't work at all with your changes to it.
