Well, below script works fine but I need my dialog menu keep appearing after next or prev buttons clicked. Anyone with an idea ?

here is the script ;

From: someone

key id;
string mess = "demo";
list menu = ["<< PREV","CANCEL","NEXT >>"];
integer chan;
integer h;
//=======================================================
init()
{
llListenRemove(h);
key id;
h = llListen(chan, "",id, "";);
}
//======================================================
dialog()
{
id = llDetectedKey(0);
chan = llFloor(llFrand(100000.0)) + 1000;
init();
llDialog(id,mess,menu,chan);
}
//=====================================================
default
{
state_entry()
{
}
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
dialog();
}
listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message )
{
if (message == "<< PREV";)
{
llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS , 0, "back", NULL_KEY);
llListenRemove(h);
}
if (message == "NEXT >>";)
{
llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS , 0, "forward", NULL_KEY);
llListenRemove(h);
}
if (message == "CANCEL";)
{
llListenRemove(h);
}
}
}

Well - just issue the dialog()-call again when you receive Next or Previous:

CODE


key id;
string mess = "demo";
list menu = ["<< PREV","CANCEL","NEXT >>"];
integer chan;
integer h;
//================================================== =====
init()
{
	llListenRemove(h);
	key id;
	h = llListen(chan, "",id, "");
}
//================================================== ====
dialog()
{
	id = llDetectedKey(0);
	chan = llFloor(llFrand(100000.0)) + 1000;
	init();
	llDialog(id,mess,menu,chan);
} 
//================================================== === 
default
{
	state_entry()
	{ 
	}
	touch_start(integer total_number)
	{
		dialog();
	}
	listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message )
	{
		if (message == "<< PREV")
		{
			llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS , 0, "back", NULL_KEY);
			dialog();
		} 
		if (message == "NEXT >>")
		{
			llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS , 0, "forward", NULL_KEY);
			dialog();
		} 
		if (message == "CANCEL")
		{
			llListenRemove(h); 
		}
	}
}

oh solved lol, init() removes the listen , it works when I use the llDialog command directly , instead of whole function .

Yeah - sorry - didn't have my 2nd cup of coffee, yet :)

I actually wonder, why it worked before since you used llDetectedKey(0) in your dialog()-function. llDetectedKey() only makes sense in touch/sensor-events.

You have to pass the toucher's key to the dialog-function (and to your init-function), then it should work.

In the touch-start-event, you pass llDetectedKey(0) to the two functions.
in the listen-event, you use the id which is passed to the event...

HTH

P.S. I actually wonder, why you're using a second function (init) to set the listener - you could easily do that in the dialog-function...


CODE


string mess = "demo";
list menu = ["<< PREV","CANCEL","NEXT >>"];
integer chan;
integer h;
//================================================== =====
init(key toucher)
{
	llListenRemove(h);
	h = llListen(chan, "",toucher, "");
}
//================================================== ====
dialog(key toucher)
{
	chan = llFloor(llFrand(100000.0)) + 1000;
	init(toucher);
	llDialog(toucher,mess,menu,chan);
} 
//================================================== === 
default
{
	state_entry()
	{ 
	}
	
	touch_start(integer total_number)
	{
		dialog(llDetectedKey(0));
	}
	listen( integer channel, string name, key id, string message )
	{
		if (message == "<< PREV")
		{
			llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS , 0, "back", NULL_KEY);
			dialog(id);
		} 
		if (message == "NEXT >>")
		{
			llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS , 0, "forward", NULL_KEY);
			dialog(id);
		} 
		if (message == "CANCEL")
		{
			llListenRemove(h); 
		}
	}
}

I added dialog function later and init was already there :) silly me, as soon as it works it doesn't take my attention.
