Forums Scripts & Popups Make a script that only works for certain isps?

on *:TEXT:*MyNick*:#: {
if ($nick == TheirNick) {
.notice $nick BlahBlahBlahBlahBlah
.notice $nick BlahBlahBlahBlahBlah
}
...
Okay so i want this simple scipt to only work on people with certain isp's. The only way I know is just by their nickname. How do I make a if statement that uses isps?

If you can see your ip with $ip then you could try and matcht he ISP with that.

Hmm idk really what you mean.
I tho there was a way to make it so that the script will only work if it matches the users isp. cant I make it read of a txt file and just add the ips in there?

A lot of networks hide the IP information or give you the option to have the information hidden, so unless you have IRCops access on the network, odds are that you will not be able to determine what ISP someone else is using.

You could match $address($nick,4) if you just want the general ISP.
See /help $address and /help $mask

The IP you would be looking for would be your own though.

You could connect to a site with a socket that will return your IP and/or ISP info.

I think you're confused as to what he wants. Read his initial post again, perhaps?
From the look of it he wants to check if a person who highlights him/triggers the on TEXT event has a certain Internet Service Provider.

Ohhh quite right, thanks.

The best (but still not perfect) way to do this is pretty easy, really: http://ip-address.domaintools.com/myip.xml

so connect to ip-address.domaintools.com port 80, send the following:



then store all returned data, test the return value of $regex(isp,%data,/$\<isp\>([^<]*)\<\/isp\>^/) (if the return value is 0 then return because otherwise the user will end up with an ugly error message)... then to retrieve the ISP: $regml(isp,1)

edit: this is an example using their free "myip" xml API... to run a query on any IP you'll need to find some other service because this will only work for the IP that the script is running on...
