correct use of pipes in query - mIRC Discussion Forums

the script is basically like this right now

Code:

ON *:TEXT:*throw*:#:{

  if ($2 == elephant ) { msg $chan thats impossible !!! | halt }
  if ($2 == ball ) { msg $chan throws ball | halt }
   }

how can i make so i can use different 'throws'

like:

Code:

  if ($2 == elephant | ship | buffalo | etc ) { msg $chan thats impossible !!! | halt }

Here are two different ways: $istok looks for the token in a list of values separated by the specified character (space, ascii 32 in this case), $regex is a more powerful and general purpose matching syntax.

Code:

if ($istok(elephant ship buffalo,$2,32)) { }

if ($regex($2,/elephant|ship|buffalo/iS)) { }

Thanks, I used the regex example and it worked perfectly.
