realname not recognised

[justin92]

Hi,
I am using this line of code in a script to check for realnames that need kicking. It performs a whois to create $txt. I have set a list that includes elements like "18 m" and "justin92".
I use a foreach loop to query the list against realname.

Code: Select all

set realname [stripcodes bcruag [string range [join [lrange [split $txt] 5 end]] 1 end]]

It works without a problem when the realname is in the form justin92 but when it is in the form justin is 18 m it fails.

Can anybody please explain why.

Thanks

Have you checked that your list of bad realnames is proper?

Inserting some debugging code into the loop posting both the values of realname and the current element you're matching against would probably be helpful.

Hi nml375,
Thanks for the tip.
Having used debugging on the loop I found that there was an issue with the timer being used in the script causing more than half of the joins to be ignored.
Thanks
