Not sure the point in this if you have Invision... cuz invision comes with an away setting already on there. BUT i was wondering.... does this come with a Pop up box for the !page? if not it would be pretty nifty..... and does it have to be set with out color? stupid questions i know. but hey if i dont ask no one else will :p

I know that I don't have to change my code but new ideas always help which is why I just took parts of Fuzionx's code and added it to my original. I always just take what I want from what people say and leave the rest. :)

Jethro created the $regex identifier

_Lestat_ you dont have to change your code, just cause they posted their option, your code works, and this is a different way, Jethro created the $regex identifier ( i dont know if you already knew that ) just to confuse you guys who are starting

To further improve your suggestion, Fuzionx, regex is well suited for this operation:

		Code 			
on $*:text:$(/(^| )(\Q $+ $replacecs($me,\E,\E\\E\Q) $+ \E|^!page)( |$)/Si):#:{
  if ($away) {
    if ($regml(2) == !page) { query $me $nick said $strip($2-) at $time $date | halt }
    .notice $nick Sorry $nick but I am away. Reason: $awaymsg $+ . Leave a message if you want.
  }
}	

Two text events are combined as one, and the control codes are stripped out because of the /S modifier. Some people like to use color, bold, or underline embedded text, and if your mIRC is not set to strip incoming messages, the trigger for $me and !page will not respond at all.

I improved your code a bit.

		Code 			
alias awy { 
  away $iif($1-, $1-, No reason specified)
  tnick $me $+ |Away
  amsg I'm Away now. Reason: $awaymsg
}

on *:text:$(* $+ $me $+ *):#: { 
  if ($away)  { 
    .notice $nick Sorry $nick but I am away. Reason: $awaymsg $+ . Leave a message if you want.
  } 
}
alias back {
  if (!$away) { echo $color(info) -a * You're not away | halt }
  amsg I am back from $awaymsg $+ . Been away for $duration($awaytime)
  away
  nick $mnick
}
	

- Use of $away, $awaytime and $awaymsg instead of variables.
- Use of tnick (temporary nick) and $mnick (main nick) for an away nickname.
- Use of $me in the ON TEXT event so the user doesn't have to fill it in him/herself
- Deleted the !page command since people rather message you themselves instead of using !page <message>
- Awaytime shown when you come back.
- The alias bck renamed to back, makes more sense.
- Check if you are away when the /back command is executed.

I hope this helps you. ;)
