    What is the correct way to show the nodelist(Who's On) in the logon.js file

    I want to show this right before the "„uto message"

    Thanks

    Does your system not already show the list of who's on? I believe Synchronet does that by default. Synchronet should display the who's-on list when a user logs on, but it's done after the auto-message is displayed. I just checked my logon.js script and didn't see any code in there for displaying the list of who's on, so I'm guessing Synchronet does that after executing the logon script.

    If nobody else is logged on though, then it won't show the list of who's on.

    It does after the logon.js transfers to the default.bin, but it only shows if a listing is on line. I want to show all my nodes status before this in the logon js file, but I need the correct way to call it. I'm makeing some changes.

    I suppose you could do this: Open your logon.js in a text editor, then search for where it says "// Auto-message", and put this line of code above that section:
    bbs.whos_online();

    Synchronet would still show who's online after your logon script gets executed though.. So if you do that, the who's-online list will be displayed twice. I doubt that's what you want.

    bbs.whos_online();

    Will that show all nodes, active and inactive, because thats what I want to do. I'v got 5 nodes, and I want to show the status of all. I want to do the same function as "nodelist_all" in my logon.js file. Thanks

    If you want to see all nodes, you can use this command:
    bbs.list_nodes();


    Also, this page is the reference documentation for Synchronet's JavaScript objects & functions:

    bbs.list_nodes();

    Thanks, That's what I was thinking when I saw your other note. Just curious, is there a list of commands you can use with js, as fars as the bbs is concerned. The online js html manuel isn't broken up like the baja manuel, or am I just looking at it wrong. Anyway, thanks for the help.

    The online JS manual I shared earlier has the list of commands. It might not be organized like the Baja manual, but they're all on there. And as far as I've seen, it's the only documentation for Synchronet's JavaScript.

    i'm not so sure if you can call that a manual; it's more of a listing of the .js objects.

    would be nice if there were examples for some of them like in the baja documentation.

    Yeah, but it also has a description of the objects as well as the functions. I think "manual" works fairly well - but I tend to prefer the word "documentation". I don't think there's much difference though. It's certainly more than just a list though.

    i think object model reference fits nicely.
    i wouldnt call it documentation or a manual

    there's not that much information there to be considered documentation.
    it says the name , syntax , and other specs of the command with a short description.

    It doesn't. There are some add-ons that allow sysops (users?) to browse a nodelist for names/addresses (e.g. to send a netmail), but I think that's about it with regards to a FidoNet nodelist. I haven't used a nodelist for fidonet in decades, personally.

    I guess my question was badly worded. How does Synchronet send net mail without using a nodelist?

    However your mailer is configured to deliver netmail. BinkIt, the mailer that comes with Synchronet, uses the BinkP settings in sbbsecho.ini to find the hostname/IP address of the linked destination node (if configured), or it can route the netmail message (through a hub) if so configured in sbbsecho.ini, or it can use DNS lookups to find the IP address of the node and deliver the netmail message direct (if it supports BinkP/TCP connections).
