How to check what a player wrote in a dialog - Ox1gEN - 15.08.2014

So, the title bassicly says everything, I'm currently working a very detailed admin script and I have created
a control panel dialog and what I'd like to know is.
That when an admin presses the Kick a Player option it'll show him a dialog asking for the ID that I already did.
But how do I like get the response from it and check if the ID == INVALID_PLAYER_ID or after that when the
admin is supposed to write the reason etc, do I need to use strcmp? strfind? Well, I don't know.
I'm looking for an answer quick because it's kind of stopping the development of the admin script.
Thanks if anyone helps

You can do it using an input dialog, and check if the inputtext is numeric, after that you have to strval(inputtext); and finally you can perform a second check to know if the ID entered was valid or not.

PHP код:
http://wiki.sa-mp.com/wiki/ShowPlayerDialog 
PHP код:
public OnDialogResponse(playerid, dialogid, response, listitem, inputtext[])
{
        return 0;
} 
I don't know who made this function, but here it is:

PHP код:
IsNumeric(const string[])
{
        for (new i = 0, j = strlen(string); i < j; i++)
        {
                if (string[i] > '9' || string[i] < '0') return 0;
        }
        return 1;
}

        }

} 
So, bassicly I'm supposed to do:

You could do it like this:
PHP код:
public OnDialogResponse(playerid, dialogid, response, listitem, inputtext[])
{
    if(dialogid == YourDialogID)
    {
        if(response)
        {
            if(!IsNumeric(inputtext)) return  ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, YourDialogID, DIALOG_STYLE_INPUT, "Kick", "The ID entered was not valid", "Kick", "");
            new targetid = strval(inputtext);//You can kick targetid if it's connected now.
            if(targetid == INVALID_PLAYER_ID) return ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, YourDialogID, DIALOG_STYLE_INPUT, "Kick", "The ID entered was not valid", "Kick", "");
            //the other stuff...
        }
    }
    return 0;
}
IsNumeric(const string[])
{
        for (new i = 0, j = strlen(string); i < j; i++)
        {
                if (string[i] > '9' || string[i] < '0') return 0;
        }
        return 1;
}

        }
        return 1;
} 
Alright, now I understand this.
Now I have another question:

How do I then check a string? Like after a player writes a string it'll do the command afterwards if all the conditions
are == true then it'll do the command, but how do I check the string and then format it, I only need to know how to
check the string and I think I'm good.

Is it possible to do something like this?

pawn Код:
format(string, sizeof(string), "[KICK]: %s has been kicked by %s Reason: %s", GetName(playerid), IsNumeric(inputtext), inputtext);

SendClientMessageToAll(COLOR_RED, string);
It's possible?

It isn't, well at least the way your doing it.

You need something called sscanf.
Use sscanf to split inputtext into an id and a string.

Then tell the admin to enter in the dialog this:
ID REASON

(of course replace id with id and the reason with the text)

I don't think you guys quite get me.

Let me explain it again:

I have a dialog that when a player presses "Kick A Player" it'll create another dialog with input style and then how
do I get what the player wrote in that? Like first after the admin presses 'kick a player' it'll create another dialog asking for ID, how do I get the ID, then it checks if the id is valid or not, then it'll ask for a reason and what you wrote
in those two dialogs will format the message into a client message and kick the player eventually.

I just want to know, HOW TO GET WHAT THE PLAYER WROTE IN THE FIRST DIALOG.
&&& In the SECOND dialog for the reason, that's the only thing I need to know, thanks.

Note: I use sscanf2, DOF2 and zcmd...
