Yeah, I know I must have exposed what I meant very unclearly. I'm sorry. I was talking about differentiating the uonline and online keys, which both are "Online", so that the when a user "comes online" or "changes status" from busy/away/ecc. to online the user is not going to get confused while scrolling the event bar.
So, changing online key from "Online" to "Available" would be the first solution (which I recommend) and the EVENT BAR should print: "$user online" -----> Buddy Available ----> when he switches status to Available "$user uonline" -------> Buddy Online -------> when he logs in, meaning you can find him in the Online group "$user offline" -----> Buddy Offline -------> when he logs out OR switches to Invisibile (we can't know that for sure, so just one key). In the second email I talked about another way to differentiate coming online and switching to online, so while the event bar should always print "$user online" (Buddy Available) when Buddy changes status to Available, it should print "$user logsin" (Buddy has just signed in) when Buddy logs in (and "$user logsout" when he logs out, obviously") "$user online" ----> Buddy Available ----> when he switches status to Available "$user logsin" ----> Buddy has just signed in -----> when he logs in, meaning you can find him in the Online group "$user logsout" ----> Buddy has just signed out -------> when he logs out OR switches to Invisibile (we can't know that for sure, so just one key). I really hope I explained it in a clearer way. ^__^" Bye!
