Weird

You wrote the script, but fail to make minor changes to it?
Something smells fishy...

Hehe, you should have noticed that I'm a newb when it's about TCL scripting.
yes... but i didn't notice that you are a newb when it's about reading as well

oops!

However... I've changed several things but everything is resulting in errors. If you know the solution to my problem, can you please give it to me?

Ah well, I will try some things to make it work!

You will probably hear from me

well... user's code wasn't meant to show anything - it was just an example on how to do it yourself

# valid item - extract title + link and incr your counter

you should read what you are supposed to do

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the loop resulted in no reply of the bot.
I've changed this code:

Code:

  foreach line [split $data \n] {    regsub -all "\\&" $line "\\\\&" line    if {[regexp "" $line]} { set item 1 }    if {[regexp "" $line]} { set item 0 }    if {$item == 1} {      regexp "(.*)" $line trash eboozdata(titel,$count)      if {[regexp "(.*)" $line trash eboozdata(link,$count)]} { incr count }    }  }

Into this:

Code:

foreach item [regexp -all -inline {} $data] {   if {[string match "*****" $item]} {      # valid item - extract title + link and incr your counter   }}

The bot sees the trigger, but isn't displaying anything on the channel. Also when I do first the closing check it has the same problem.

Any other suggestions?

in your xml you have "" and you do:

if {[regexp "" $line]} { set item 1 }
if {[regexp "" $line]} { set item 0 }

Either add a linebreak between the closing/opening item tags in the xml or do the closing check first in your tcl.
...or you could avoid the whole problem by doing the loop like this instead:

Code:

foreach item [regexp -all -inline {} $data] {if {[string match "*****" $item]} {# valid item - extract title + link and incr your counter}}

Hello people,

I'm trying to set up my own IRC bot. Usually that's no problem but currently I've some problems with my own script.

I would like to set up the bot so it will post a title and a link of new news posts on my website to IRC.

I'm using this RSS Feed: http://www.ebooz.nl/rss.php
and this TCL script: http://www.ebooz.nl/ebooz_tcl.txt (on my server with the tcl extension ofcourse).

The main problem I have is that the bot isn't displaying more than one headline when someone uses a trigger. Even if I set "ebooz(headlines)" to 3.

I don't get any errors in the console of the eggdrop.

Can somebody help me with this problem? Thanks in advance
