Script Error: Input string was not in correct format.

[Rob JH 0]

Hi Guys,

 

Strange problem here, I have this code working perfectly fine in 1 bot which has no defines, I try and copy and paste the code or put it in a define and it throws up an error, even in a brand new bot.

 

I am getting:

Script Error: Input string was not in correct format.

Script > set > $rand

 

And the code which basically gets a random URL and its matching Keyword from a CSV.

 

clear table(&Targets)
create table from file("{$special folder("Application")}\\data\\targets.csv", &Targets)
set(#RandomRow, $rand(0, $eval($subtract($table total rows(&Targets), 1))), "Global")
set(#Keyword, $table cell(&Targets, #RandomRow, 0), "Global")
set(#URL, $table cell(&Targets, #RandomRow, 1), "Global")

 

Any ideas?

Seems to work just fine for me.

 

test()
define test {
    clear table(&Targets)
    create table from file("{$special folder("Application")}\\data\\targets.csv", &Targets)
    set(#RandomRow, $rand(0, $eval($subtract($table total rows(&Targets), 1))), "Global")
    set(#Keyword, $table cell(&Targets, #RandomRow, 0), "Global")
    set(#URL, $table cell(&Targets, #RandomRow, 1), "Global")
}

 

I just put random letters in the csv file

You are experiencing problems because of the $eval function. When you load a page that doesn't use javascript $eval will return an empty string "", which I think is the case on your side.

 

I've simulated the conditions here and I get the same error as you: http://screencast.com/t/abFdnqAer6

 

However, to fix the code just remove $eval and this should solve your problem (you dont need to use $eval since $substract function will always return an integer).

That did the job thanks!

I never knew it was this easy but nice to see that this worked already. It just amazes me that removing $eval did the trick here.

thanks for this tip. I had the same problem and removing the eval worked.
