Thanks! Worked like a charm.

[string map] is your friend in this case. Any (space) or (underscore) within $text will be exchanged with %20's.

Return url from a trigger + Text

Code:

puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan http://www.ipdb.org/search.pl?searchtype=quick&any=[string map {" " "%20" "_" "%20"} $text]"

Almost SOLVED - RE- Return url from a trigger + Text

2008-09-06T22:22:09-04:00

Well I solved my own problem for the most part. Found some stuff here in this forum. Read a few parts and came up with a good answer. Well almost. How can I parse a space in the text.

IE !ipdb Black Knight
returns
http://www.ipdb.org/search.pl?searchtyp ... &any=Black

thanks in advance for any help.

Return url from a trigger + Text

2008-09-06T22:22:58-04:00

Hello first post. Just got started in the world of Eggdrop.

Trying to do a simple script that spits out a url from www.ipdb.org (pinball machine database) after a trigger is entered on the channelipdb followed by the name of a game. This script was originally a wiki script I tried to modify for my own needs. Ie:

!IPDB pinbot should return in the channel for all to see.

http://$::www.ipdb.org/search.pl?searchtype=quick&any=pinbot

Any help would be appreciated.
The code is below....

Code:

#========================================================================# ** IPDB Quick Link#========================================================================# * Description:##    * Allows IRC users to link to IPDB quickly through the bot.#    * The default format is:#       !ipdb game name##------------------------------------------------------------------------# * Features:##========================================================================# Calls the script when people say !ipdb at the start of the line.# Changes this to whatever you want to make the script call on other#  keywords.bind pub - "!ipdb" spidey:ipdb_link# Two letter language of the wiki you want to link to.proc spidey:ipdb_link { nick hand chan text } {# Print linkputserv "PRIVMSG $chan http://$::www.ipdb.org/search.pl?searchtype=quick&any=$text (Requested by \002$nick\002)"}# Log the script as successfully loaded.putlog "IPDB_log: Loaded"
