Is there a way where I can search who belongs to a particular avatar key? Is there a way of finding out my own key? Thanks in advance!

Name2Key sounds like an external fuction that does the opposite of what the poster is looking for, and it's just as easy to do what they're actually lookking for in world....

default
{
touch_start (integer total_number)
{
llSay (0,(string)llDetectedKey(0));
}
}


that ought to do it

Johan's script will tell you what your key is. Or, go to w-hat.com, and look up your own key using their utility.

To find out who a key belongs to, that's a bit more complicated. If you understand how to script, the function llKey2Name() is what you want - note however, that it only works if the avatar who belongs to the key you're looking for is in the same sim as the script.

Good luck! :)

drop this in a prim and say "/1 <key>" where key is the actual user key
From: someone

integer channel = 1;

default
{
state_entry()
{
llListen(channel, "", llGetOwner(), "";);
}

listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string msg)
{
llSay(0, (string)msg +" belongs to: "+ llKey2Name(msg));
}
}

change "integer channel = 1;" to say 3 or 59 if u want it listen on a different channel, just remember to say "/3 <key>"
