/help $dde:
$dde(name, topic, item, delay)
Returns the value returned by the specified service name, topic, and item, by sending an XTYP_REQUEST.

//echo My other mIRC is $dde(mirc, connected) to $dde(mirc, server)

The item and delay parameters are optional.

The delay value indicates that you want $dde() to wait N seconds for a reply before giving up. The default is one second, which is usually enough.

I don't completely understand it either, I suppose you need a delay higher than 1 to work @ your place; dunno why.
L33t scripters, help! smile

Well I would assume that since both aren't specified in this case
that this would be $dde(name, topic, item) and not $dde(name, topic, delay) ..
am I wrong? It's not a question for you specifically, but for anyone
that may be able to provide an answer.

- Edit -
Yes I know about DDE in the help file, but ty for the reference anyway.

According to MSKB Q160957 the correct syntax would be
$dde(iexplore, WWW_GetWindowInfo, WWW_GetWindowInfo)

Yeah, doesn't work for me either, with specifying a 1 it does. I think it's a bit dodgy to say the least.

@Online: I got my documentation from there actually smile but had to do some testing since my signature applies well here.

Since v6.17, $url works with Firefox. I really appreciate this fix. I haven't seen any mention of the change.
