Ive combined a few bits of code from hours of searching, and I cannot for the life of me understand how to get miniwindows to work right. If someone could write maybe the beginning or just a skeleton example, id love them. I have looked over about 10000 help files it seems.

It basically keeps track of spells and displays as UP or DOWN. I want this in a miniwindow and not the infobar. It would be nice to also have it green or red, which i could do if i knew how to start.

This is not working code, this is just where I am at. It will not run unless you remove the window part ;p

Huh? Did you use the plugin wizard? Take a look at almost any plugin on this site and you will see that the script part goes inside "script" tags, like this:


<!--  Script  -->


<script>
<![CDATA[

--  your script here ...


]]>
</script>

Also there should be more preamble at the start and the end.

Look at existing plugins, quite a few came with the client.
