Personally i don't use myspace, but i bet that there is some text saying that someone is online

so do a WinGetText() and if its there then they're on

no i dnt see a way to have auto it get your friends info but im not that great at makin scripts but from what i see from the veiw page source info it doesnt differ the code any if the person is on and thats how id make the scrips that your talkin about i have no ideas onhow to get what you want.

This is a good idea but i dont think it will be very easy considering they only sign that myspace has to let you kno if some1 is online is a little image that people can change you could probly have autoit check for the image but if some1 is using a custom online image you might have problems

That was the only way i was thinking of doing it but like you said if they are using custom images

well the image isnt actualy removed its actualy covered up so technically its still there

[cppman]

if you know how to do this...

Login,

Go to the friends page by using there ID or URL,

INetGet("www.myspace.com/friend", "blah.html")

read the lines into the array

look for the string, <img src="online.gif"> relevant to the there picture. or something like that, if it finds it, they are online, if not, they are not.

You can do it the image way. The image is replaced using CSS. You put the CSS in the About Me section... and it replaces the image with whatever it is..

so, the normal image is still in the code..

ah yes i forgot that almost everything u do to myspace only covers up the default stuff so yea wut chris said would work but y dont u just have the script just go to their page cuz most ppl already have urls set like mine is www.myspace.com/ikaikakealoha most people already have stuff set up like that so just have the script navagate to their url then check for the img its alot more simple that way. get beta and the IE builder it will come in handy for this

so could i have it cheak for the image without openong the browser??

i think the window has to be open or u could use the same method that Vaulter uses to have autoit 123 post test results that keeps the window hidden and still clicks links and stuff
