i cant figure this one out...
i want to make it so when <email adress> signs in it opens a chat window for <contacts email> but i tryed everything and i couldnt get it... also im new so any help is appreaciated

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin(Email)
{
Messenger.OpenChat(Email)
}

---

No, you need the Contact, not the email, so it should be:
According to the scripting doc, an email works too

code:

---

function OnEvent_ContactSignin (Email) {
   var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(Email)
   Messenger.OpenChat(Contact)
}

---

yeah at first I thought that I needed the contact too, but the scripting doc proved us wrong

ok thanks for the help but i think im doin somethin wrong
this is what i have so far

function OnEvent_ContactSignin ('example@hotmail.com') {
   var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact('example@hotmail.com')
   Messenger.OpenChat(Contact)
}

whats wrong?

You should not replace the 'Email' parameter

When the function 'OnEvent_ContactSignin' is called as an event, it passes one parameter named Email, so you know who signed in...
If you want to do this for only one person, you should check if the Email parameter is the same as the email of the person you want

function OnEvent_ContactSignin (Email) {
   if (Email == "example@hotmail.com") {
      var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(Email)
      Messenger.OpenChat(Contact)
   }
}

ok that works and now i understand it but i just read what i wanted for a script and it was a lil confuzing.  what i meant was when my email signs in i want it to automatically open a convo window of one of my friends.  like i sign in and if their online or offline it brings up the window.

but thanks for the first script. i love it but i would still like the one i just described agian

function OnEvent_Signin (Email) {
   var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact("example@hotmail.com")
   Messenger.OpenChat(Contact)
}

Perhaps you should have a look in the scripting documentation

i did.  i learn better by example but yea the script you gave me opens any contact that comes online umm heres the script in entirety



function OnEvent_ContactSignin (Email) {
    if (Email == "HerEmail@hotmail."); {
    var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact(Email);
     Messenger.OpenChat(Contact);
    }
}

function OnEvent_Signin (Email) {
    var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact("HerEmail@hotmail.com")
    Messenger.OpenChat(Contact)
}


ok so it opens any contact that comes online and i only want this script to function on my email death.to.emo@hotmail.com

thanks for all your help

Forget the top bit of the script... Just use this.

code:

---

function OnEvent_Signin (Email) {
var Contact = Messenger.MyContacts.GetContact("HerEmail@hotmail.com");
Messenger.OpenChat(Contact);
}
