Shoutbox

I cant work out why the following scrip doesnt work:

code:

---

var on = '0'

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(sEmail)
{
Messenger.OpenChat(sEmail);
on = '1'
}

function OnEvent_ChatWndCreated(ChatWnd)
{
if (on == '1')
{
on = '0'
ChatWnd.SendMessage("Hello (!N) !");
}
}

---

Its meant to open a chat box with someone as soon as they login and then say Hello.

This should work (untested though):

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(sEmail){
   var ChatWnd = Messenger.OpenChat(sEmail);
   ChatWnd.SendMessage("Hello (!N) !");
}

---

Lines of code should end with a semicolon (I think it's needed)
You were using a string as a boolean, which is possible, but not a good way of doing things.
Also, it shouldn't need to events... A ChatWnd object should be created and returned by the OpenChat function

Look in the scripting documentation for more help

Made even smaller:

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(_email){
   Messenger.OpenChat(_email).SendMessage("Hello (!N) !");
}

This i want. but then on a certain e-mail adress.
Like only for a certain friend

Because i use Answering machine plus and i did
that if they type a code my name changes into
[Jef] Current Online admin: (they're name here)

but i wantthat on sign in of the admins
so when Arrie (one of my admins sign in)
it should say /name [Jef] Current Online admin: Arrie

try this then:

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(Email){
if(Email == "someone@somewhere.com") Messenger.OpenChat(Email).SendMessage("/nick [Jef] Current Online admin: (!N)");
}

---

---

but if you want to do it without opening a conversation window,

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(Email){
if(Email == "someone@somewhere.com") Messenger.MyName = "[Jef] Current Online admin: " + Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(Email).Name;
}

---

Some important remarks about stuff like:

code:

---

Messenger.OpenChat(Email).SendMessage("something");

---

Better never use that.

Before sending a message you should always check if you actually can send a message (and if that conversation window can actually be opened). It is quite possible that you can't even send something because you've blocked the contact, or because the window can't be opened, or the contact has a mobile phone and you need to sign up first for credits, or whatever...

So:

code:

---

var oChatWnd = Messenger.OpenChat(Email);
if (oChatWnd.EditChangeAllowed) {
     oChatWnd.SendMessage("something")
}

---

This important check is way too often forgotten in extremely many scripts.

See Plus! Scripting Documentation. This is also explained in the help of the SendMessage() function...
