Some UseFull Functions

[AbsoluteGenius]

This may seam simple but its still helpfull


These return the string thats after a given character(s)

Public Function GetAfter(sData As String, sFind As String) As String
     On Error Resume Next
     GetAfter = Mid$(sData, Locate(UCase(sData), UCase(sFind)) + Len(sFind), Len(sData))
End Function



These return the string thats before a given character(s)

Public Function GetBefore(sData As String, sFind As String) As String
     On Error Resume Next
     GetBefore = Left$(sData, Locate(sData, sFind) - 1)
End Function


Both these functions use another function called Locate :-

Function Locate(sData As String, sFind As String) As Long
     Locate = InStr(1, sData, sFind, 1)
End Function

The Locate function is just a little wrapper to simplify a function already in VB.

so its like $gettok for VB?

[AbsoluteGenius]

I dont script so I dont know how the getok thing works

[anthrax]

lot of things in mirc/vb is similar..would be good if there was some kinda tutorial

vbs split(string, delimiter)(portion of string to get) is like mirc $gettok i think.. could make it exactly teh same with a few lines more of code in vb to handle errors etc

i.e

$gettok(hello hi hey,1,32) for mirc would return hello

in vbbr]
split("hello hi hey", " ")(0) would return hello

always a favorite

Function RandomNumber(intLow As Integer, intHigh As Integer) As Integer
RandomNumber = Int(Rnd * (intHigh - intLow + 1)) + intLow
End Function

ag we all know ur smart as hell, still most people did study kube's myth or fate code to learn how to make irc clients.... my irc client dark operations will be at a stand still for about 2-3 weeks, while i code a browser bot to help people start off on browser bots.
i know how to connect easy but i was woundering... is there a way i can make a browser bot have response so the bot can talk back...?

[AbsoluteGenius]

Yes using API and subclassing

you can subclass the controls in the browser and receive the messages and send messages via API

Its not an easy thing, I have a prototype bot I will be finishing off some time in the future.

Your best soloution is to look on PSC for samples on subclassing windows events

thankz on the tip AG but on my multi connection irc code i am coding i am trashing it making it into browser multi connection i don't feel like typing alot....too lazy
like i wanted to just make 1 connection connect the one u click like its hard for me to say kinda like so

If Tab0_Click Then
then i code the connection here
kinda like u did on ircdom.. i just don't like to keep making the same thing over n over
