MXP Problem...
|
I have a really long MXP send command in a #sub and it just prints out the whole damn thing, instead of using it as a right click menu. Now if I use it in a #mxp command to test it, it works just fine, but in the #sub I'm having problems with it. Can it only be so long or something? If you want to see it, let me know...but I believe I've covered the basis of my problem. Thanks to anyone who can help me with my problem.

Post up the code, and any output you see. It might be you have a few things getting parsed out or something.
However, if you know already the line is properly tagged, then your problem simply boils down to the fact you're trying to process a secure MXP tag on an unsecure line. This goes against MXP specs, which #SUB now follows. To view the MXP specs, go here.
Unlike #SUBSTITUTE, the #MXP and #WINDOW commands will secure the line so secure tags can be processed. |

Basically I want it to allow me to right click, then left click the area name, and goto the first vnum of the area. I've already got all the area variables set up with the correct values inside. |

As I understand it, #SUB will set the line to secure for secure MXP processing. |

Best I can say is try single quotes ' instead of double quotes ". Next would be to eliminate the tildes ~ and use double quotes around the entire MXP portion (assumes single quotes within).
Also per the MXP spec you should apply quotes to both the menu and commands portion as they conatian many spaces. I prefer single within MXP, but the spec supports both types. Finally the MXP processing will be the last thing to see the line, so carefully check what is in the variables to assure it does not break the quote pattern you use. |

Have you considered just making a right-click menu, using the #MENU command?

This is where I got my current syntax...
Here is a more practical example that a MUD might use if you are in a store trying to buy an item:
#MXP There is some <send "buy bread|examine bread|steal bread" "buy|examine|steal">bread</send> here.
Using MXP in the #SUBSTITUTE command
Instead of using the #MXP command to send Secure MXP commands to the screen, you can also create a trigger and then use the #SUBSTITUTE command to add MXP commands to the text. For example,
#TRIGGER {north} {#SUB {~<send>north~</send>}}
will replace the word "north" whenever it is displayed by the MUD and replace it with the text <send>north</send> which creates a hyperlink. If you click on the "north" hyperlink, the command "north" is sent to the MUD.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice this section work just fine though....
~<send "done|commands" @Editor>@Editor~</send> |

Took out all ' in the names of the areas (ie. Redferne's) and now it shows up how I want to, just that is there when I right click is 27000 and goto. So I'm getting closer.
