Forums Scripts & Popups Socket help? Please...

sockmark stores the data for later reference by
$sock().mark

i did sorta the same thing using global variables
if you want it to msg the nick
[code]
alias checkhost {
sockopen checkhost $+ $ticks $$1 80
}
on *:text:!serverstatus &:*:{
set %target $nick
checkhost $$2
}
on *:sockopen:checkhost*:{
msg %target $iif($sockerr,$false,$true - $sock($sockname).ip)
sockclose $sockname
unset %target
}

if you want it to msg the channel just substitute the red $nick
with $chan

and lastly use fibers code im betting theres something horribly wrong with mine
