not a single socket script I try to use, they never work

Here's a very recent example I got from zad0909.

Code:

on *:TEXT:!clan*:#:{
  var %sckid = $right($ticks,5)
  if ($2 == $null) { set %clan.nick. $nick }
  if ($2 != $null) { set %clan.nick. $replace($2- ,$chr(32),_) }
  if ($left($1,1) == !) set %clan.way. notice $nick
  if ($left($1,1) == @) set %clan.way. msg $chan
  sockopen clan. [ $+ [ %sckid ] ] runehead.com 80
}
on *:SOCKOPEN:clan.*: {
  sockwrite -nt $sockname GET /feeds/lowtech/searchuser.php?user= $+ %clan.nick. $+ &type=2 HTTP/1.1
  sockwrite -nt $sockname Host: runehead.com
  sockwrite -nt $sockname $crlf
}
on *:SOCKREAD:clan.*: { 
  if ($sockerr) { 
    %clan.way. Socket Error: $sockname $+ . Error code: $sockerr Please inform $me of this error message. 
    return 
  } 
  else { 
    var %sockreader 
    sockread %sockreader 
    if (*|* iswm %sockreader) { 
      noop $regex(%sockreader,/(.*?)\|(.*)/Si)
      set %clan.name $regml(1) 
      set %clan.url $regml(2) 
      %clan.way. Clan: %clan.name URL: %clan.url 
      sockclose $sockname 
    } 
    elseif (*Not Found* iswm %sockreader) { 
      %clan.way. ERROR: %clan.nick. isn't in any clanlist. 
      sockclose $sockname 
    } 
  } 
}

If anyone has any idea why, please tell me. Is it because my version isn't registered (yet)?

Just a few things though: Code: ON :TEXT:!clan: Cool, but: Code: if ($left($1,1) == !) set %clan.way. notice $nick if ($left($1,1) == @) set %clan.way. msg $chan This is redundant due to the fact that $1 is '!clan<something>' So it'll always be !. Now, the regex you're using is just a bit odd: Code: noop $regex(%sockreader,/(.?)\\|(.)/Si) A '*' after an atom says "0 or more". Using the '?' there is pointless. All this being said, if multiple people make the request at the same time, the '%clan.way.' and '%clan.nick.' will get mixed up. Use 'sockmark' to keep the variables associated with the socket it's self. Apart from all that, I can't see any obvious errors.. (don't have mIRC with me, so can't further test).

I wonder if it wouldn't be even more efficient to simply use tokens to parse the line, replacing: Code: if (\| iswm %sockreader) { noop $regex(%sockreader,/([^\|]+)\\|(.)/Si) set %clan.name $regml(1) set %clan.url $regml(2) with: Code: if (\|* iswm %sockreader) { set %clan.name $gettok(%sockreader, 1,124) set %clan.url $gettok(%sockreader, 2,124) Sorry Ash44455666, I don't 'get' socket scripts either; can't help you there. Unregistered mirc is not crippled in any way. That's not the prob. Last edited by LonDart; 03/09/07 04:20 AM. LonDart

I literally copy/pasted it into my mIRC, and it worked unaltered. Just to neaten the ON TEXT up a bit though: Code: on :TEXT:!clan:#:{ set %clan.nick. $iif($2, $replace($2- ,$chr(32),_), $nick) set %clan.way. notice $nick sockopen clan. $+ $right($ticks,5) runehead.com 80 } If you want some more details on how to do the sockmark stuff, just drop a note..
