it doesn't work the first time "in public" since you output the result (served) immediately after passing the callback to egghttp, meaning that by the time you issue that NOTICE, your callback proc still hasn't completed (or even invoked), so served is not set
I know that from the start, it's pretty obvious, and I already tried to put the notice nick in the callback, but nothing shows up! :\
So I did not know what to do!
You kept talking about how do select the text, so I was not getting what was to be done... The text showed fine... I was not understanding what you meant...
Until I read this line!

in the public trigger proc, save the inquiring nick in a global variable and then output your NOTICE in the callback, using that variable
DONE! I know what I was doing wrong... I used notice nick... but it did not get the nick to notice! Using the global varible, it will get the nick. Thanks!
Works fine...
I can upload the code to egghelp.org if you guys are interessed... also made it to fit Shoutcast servers for info without owning them!

but it just does not work at the first time in public! but in the partyline it shows the complete info!
I tried to insert your code, but now the relevant info does not show up...
I don't know what do you intend with your code, so I could use a bit more of help...

hence, help was given, but it does not work.
it will work when you get a clue on how to strip HTML tags using regexps and fix your code; here's another hint (I won't write the script for you):

Code: 

regsub -all -- {<[^>]*>} $html_string "" plain_string
this will strip all characters in-between (and including) < and > brackets in html_string and put the result in plain_string

"here, if [regexp] doesn't find a match, served won't be set, hence the "No such variable" error on the next line; in TCL, unlike C, every variable must be initialized (with [set] or implicitly by some other commands) before being used "
hence I wrote that

set served ""

"that [regexp], judging by its arguments, needs to be changed to [regsub] "
done that too...
using regsub won't work since I see this

Code: 

Soulseek server <html><head><title>slsk serverstatus</title><style>body { font-family : Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size : 8pt; color : gray; font-weight: bold; scrollbar-face-color: #ffffff; scrollbar-highlight-color: #efefef; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #ffffff; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #ffffff; scrollbar-shadow-color: #afafaf; scrollbar-arrow-color: #afafaf; scrollbar-track-color: #ffffff; overflow: auto;}A, A:ACTIVE, A:FOCUS, A:HOVER, A:LINK, A:VIS
in the partyline!

using each one in particular or both together, simply does not work...
shows the line without any info regarding what "served" should bring.

hence, help was given, but it does not work.

  • served is declared as global, but it's used (possibly) before initialization:

    Code: 

        regexp {the server (.*)<br>} $body {} served    putlog "Soulseek server $served - $url."
    here, if [regexp] doesn't find a match, served won't be set, hence the "No such variable" error on the next line; in TCL, unlike C, every variable must be initialized (with [set] or implicitly by some other commands) before being used
  • that [regexp], judging by its arguments, needs to be changed to [regsub]

    In fact it does... but it shows only the text without saying the part I want from the site... that is, it does not say if the server is up or down.... :\
    and I can't understand why...
    read a good TCL book, or learn online using tons of useful resources; study other people's code, and try to code stuff yourself, starting with basic things

    then you won't be that puzzled and unable to grasp simple notions like global variables

    Code: 

    set served ""
    under

    Code: 

    set pubtrigger "!soulseek"
    This should create the variable ready for use.

    Code: 

    set served "this is bull, but hey, the server went on vacations"
    so something will show? or can I have a "real" msg based on the info it gets from that webpage?

    Or... can I make the bot run it one time by itself, so the next time is always ok?

    Thanks for the help.. :D
