variable help - mIRC Discussion Forums

ok guys, need a little help, I have a variable that isn't returning anything.

Code:

%seen.nick
[color:red]should[/color] return this: 1hr 27mins 27secs ago., it's in variables, and, yes, it's set.

and, this is in one of my scripts:

Code:

did -ra $seen 6 $+(%seen.,$did($seen,1).seltext)
-----
$seen = seen.panel 6 = edit. and 1 = list :D

but, it only returns nick, any idea why, help is appreciated!

Change

Code:

 $+(%seen.,$did($seen,1).seltext)

to

Code:

 $($+(%,seen.,$did($seen,1).seltext),2)

You need to evaluate the variable. Notice the comma (,) between "%" & "seen.". It needs to be separated so when mIRC evaluates it, it evaluates the WHOLE combined variable, and not just %seen. which has no value & which is why NICK is only showing.

** $() is short for $eval()

Try using

Code:

 did -ra $seen 6 $($+(%,seen.,$did($seen,1).seltext),2)

Part of the problem (I think) is that you need to evaluate the variable %seen.<nick> in order to get it to return correctly for placement in the dialog.

ok guys, worked, thanks.

Welcome.

Looks like the three of us were giving the same information at the same time. I guess great minds do think alike .
