Dictionary

[killerogue]

Hate to revive this, but just read it and found it to be useful. But I've tried a few ways to call the function but it didn't quite work.

What's the issue? Or how should I do it? As I am obviously doing it wrong..:P

Call the function serverside with a word as the parameter
for example you can make a class and have a little script in the Control-NPC:

dictionary (class):

PHP Code:

function Define(word) {
 temp.link = "http://www.onelook.com/?w=" @ word @ "&ls=a";
 echo("Requesting Definition of" SPC word @ ":");
  temp.req = requesturl(temp.link);
 this.catchevent(temp.req,"onReceiveData","onDefine");
}
function onDefine(obj) {
 temp.toks = obj.fulldata.tokenize("\n");
 for(b: temp.toks) {
  if (b == "<LI>") continue;
  if (b.starts("<LI>") > 0) {
   temp.ntoks = b.tokenize(";");
   temp.npos = temp.ntoks[2].pos("(");
   temp.defin = temp.ntoks[2].substring(0,temp.npos);
   if (temp.defin.length() > 1) echo(" - " @ temp.defin);
   temp.msg++;
  }
 }
 if (temp.msg == 0) echo("No Definitions Found!");
} 


Control-NPC

PHP Code:

function onCreated()
 join("dictionary");
public function onRCChat() {
 if (params[0] == "defineword") {
  temp.word = params[1];
  Define(temp.word);
 }
} 


can be a part of the Control-NPC script at the bottom and then..

NPC Code:

---

 /npcdefineword <word here>

---

in RC chat


I think that should work..
