I've wrote a little script that Responds on an Text. Now I tried to use Colors as shown in the 'Tutorial' in this Forum. But the Color doesn't show, the text is Plain. I'm using mIRC 6.03
Copy and paste of the actual control character is nasty and can break some editors. Some FTP clients do not like it either.
First off, the order in which you open and close control chars is not important. Lazy parsing is at hand here, which is actualy good as there is little to parse. The control chars simply set the start and stop points of formatting.
In other words, tag order is un-important unlike HTML.
If the control chars are failing, then there is one of two issues at hand.
1: You client is filtering them out as you have asked it to in the settings.
2: You client does not support them, however, is aware of them, so filters them for good reading.
Are you normaly able to see them when somebody else sends you a message?
Has your network got colour filtering enabled? Does a client need to auth to use them? Does it need a specific usermode to stop them being filtered?
