I'm trying to read data from a site: http://apis.rtainc.co/twitchbot/following.php?channel=randomchannel&user=randomuser I have the following code Code: alias followed { sockclose followed sockopen followed apis.rtainc.co 80 } on :SOCKOPEN:followed:{ if ($sockerr) { sockclose $sockname \| halt } sockwrite -nt $sockname GET /twitchbot/following.php?channel=randomviewer&user=randomuser HTTP/1.1 sockwrite -n $sockname Host: apis.rtainc.co sockwrite $sockname $crlf } on :SOCKREAD:followed:{ if ($sockerr) { sockclose $sockname } var %data sockread %data echo %data } I should be echoing: randomuser is not following but i am only echoing raw headers. Any thoughts? I'm using similar socket scripts already and can read data from a website just fine. Thanks! twitter @keyeslol
