BigDod Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Lose the brackets $b = InputBox("This" ,"Doesn't work" ,"","") If $b == "Lol" Then MsgBox(0,"It works","but,it doesnt") EndIf Time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time ......T.S.

Bowmore Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 With the thing that Im doing i need the brackets.And I tried it,it doesn't work..I don't understand what the problem is. I just ran the code you posted and it worked fine for me.I typed "(Lol)" without the quotes and $b was returned with exactly that and the message box displayed.Have I misunderstood something here?

picaxe Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) You are aware that $b == "(Lol)" is case sensitive. $b = "(Lol)" is case insensitive Your example fails if you enter "(lol)". Edited October 28, 2007 by picaxe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synth Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 I mean't when i type a sentence (ie: "This makes me go (Lol)" without the quotes ) it doesn't return the message box. But if i just type "(Lol)" It does. picaxe > Im aware of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synth Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) Nope that doesn't work for me... I already made it case sensitive,but that's not what i want. Ps: Look at the 6# post. Edited October 28, 2007 by Synth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardith Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) Try this. $Input = InputBox("This" ,"Doesn't work" ,"","") $b = StringInStr($Input, "(Lol)", 1); '1' makes it case sensitive. If $b > 0 Then MsgBox(0,"It works","but,it doesnt") EndIf I made a mistake I believe. Give that a shot.
