Hi all.ããI have a script that is causing the BBs to crash (freebsd version) when it ãruns and I have tried a few things to get it working but can't. Can anyoe ãsee what is wrong with this?ãããtop =format(bbs.text(377),"",user.age,user.gender,user.birthdateã ,user.name,user.phone,user.computer,user.connection);ããbbs.email(bbs.node_val_user,nullã ,topã ,"New user introduction");ããWhat it should do is read prompt 377 from text.dat (which it does) and ãformat it with the users data and place it in a sting called topãThen it creates a new email to the sysop with that text at the top of the ãmessage. Basically, it is a JS version of the new user feedback email ãthat I run from a script.ããIf I take out all of the user. variables so it saysããtop =format(bbs.text(377),"");ããthen it works, in so far as it creates an email and puts string 377 at the ãtop of the text. Any ideas why it doesn't work when I try to populate the ãstring 377 with the users data would be appreciated!ããThanksãMerlinããã--------------------------------------------------------------ã Merlin þ SysOp of CarSo BBs þ telnet://carso.synchro.netã--------------------------------------------------------------ããã---ã þ Synchronet þ CarSo BBs þ Beverley, UK þ telnet://carso.synchro.netã

I'll try reproducing on my system.ããIve changed my script to use ascii(user.gender) and it now works. I am ãusing the latest CVS of 3.14 for FreeBSD, so maybe it isn't fixed!ããMerlinãã--------------------------------------------------------------ã Merlin þ SysOp of CarSo BBs þ telnet://carso.synchro.netã--------------------------------------------------------------ããã---ã þ Synchronet þ CarSo BBs þ Beverley, UK þ telnet://carso.synchro.netã
