ok the basic problem as far as i can tell is that the first raw within the join script gets an error however ? all of the info is returned on the whois .
Code:
  
on 1:join:#channel: {
  set %whatever $nick
  /alias
  RAW 307:*: /echo #channel 12 $+ $2 $+ : 04 $+ $3- | halt
  RAW 311:*: /echo #channel 12Nick:04 $+ $2 $+ | /echo #channel 12Username:04 $+ $3 12Address:04 $+ $4 12Real Name:04 $+ $6- | halt
  RAW 312:*: /echo #channel 12Server:04  $+ $3 | halt
  RAW 317:*: /echo #channel 12Idle:04  $+ $duration($3) 12Signed On:04  $+ $time($4,ddd-mmm-dd @ hh:nntt) | halt
  RAW 319:*: /echo #channel 12Channels:04 $+ $3- | halt
}


basically i made an alias for the whois because i thought perhaps that would help but it seems to work ok but i get an error on the RAW 307 each time but yet the info is still there ?

this is the error
307:*: Unknown command
