Hi, I'm looking for a popup script to display a disclaimer when you tp to my sim. I found one on slexchange, but it's directions are awful, and nobody I know can figure out how to get it to work. Very simply, I am looking for a script similar to what the lindens send out when they are working on something (that blue popup in the upper right hand corner of the screen). The one I have does that, but does not work, very poor directions too.
Ideally, if an avatar hit ignore, I would like it to send that person home. Any scriptors out there that will take my lindens for this miracle script?
Thanks everyone!

Thanks everyone! If you are looking to buy a script please post in products wanted. If however you are looking to write such a script then heres a brief outline Assuming there are no owner tools that by pass the need to detect arrivals then you will need to detect the arrival of the avatar. They will work best if ppl can only tp to preset destinations within the sim. When you detect the avatar you send an llDialog to then with your disclaimer/agreement on it and set a timer. If they avatar click on an OK / Accept button you stop the timer. If not the timer expires and starts the tp home procvess. The complication will be handling multiple avatars, some form of brokering script that hands off individual processing to subbordinate scripts, say 20 or 30 of them. may be more if you expect this to be popular. You may want to also maintain a list of people who agreed so that you dont keep badgering them.

take a vistitor list .. where it says or stores the name of the visitor, add an llDialog with whatever message you want to give. you can also use the existing list in the visitor list to see if the av has already visited, and, if so, not give them the notice. Er, if your free visitor list script already has the function to determine if they are in the list or not, just put the llDialog in the part of the code that acts when the AV is not already in the list. The SL ACLU uses just such a script to give visitors a notice, just once every 20 visitors. ACLU in Second Life - Commonweal, Commonwealth Island (199, 78, 22)

Thank you both for your replies. Yes, I'm trying to write this script with the help of others, as I'm totally new to scripting. Little Gray met me in world and gave me the ACLU script, so I'm going to play around with that. From what I can tell, it's exactly what I'm looking for.
I don't know about that once every 20 visitors though, I do need it to be for every visitor, but I haven't had the chance to really look at it yet.
