EDIT: Thank you!!! It works perfectly Thanks again!

Code:

bind pub - !webreq my:webreqproc my:webreq {nick uhost hand chan text} {if {[scan $text {%s} url] != 1} {puthelp "NOTICE $nick :Error, correct syntax is: !webreq "return}set token [::http::geturl $url]set content [::http::data $token]::http::cleanup $contentforeach line [split $content \n] {puthelp "PRIVMSG $chan :$line"}}

Here's something simple that should do what you need.

Hello everyone. I need a script for eggdrop that will let me make eggdrop go to a website and retrieve the text from it.

The website is a simple PHP script that echoes only one line of text. Now, I would like eggdrop to go there and write back that line of text in the IRC channel. It would look like this:

!webreq http://domain.com/script.php
Your text is this and that.

Thank you.
