Taking the inputtext from a dialog and checking if it's a playerid - Sellize - 03.04.2015

I want to use the inputtext from a dialog and see if it's a valid playerid but it doesnt seem to work

Код:

else if(dialogid == DIALOG_TELLID)
    {
        if(response)
        {
            if(chatting[playerid] == 1) return SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "{FF0000}You are already chatting with someone.");
			if(!IsNumeric(inputtext) || strlen(inputtext) > 5) return SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "{FF0000}You entered an invalid playerid.");
			new id = strval(inputtext);
			
			return 1;
		}
    }

And then check if the player is connected.

Код:

if(!IsNumeric(inputtext) || strlen(inputtext) > 5) return SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "{FF0000}You entered an invalid playerid.");
new id = strval(inputtext);
if(!IsPlayerConnected(id)) return SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, "{FF0000}You entered an invalid playerid.");

That's what I had before but when I use it won't work at all. The dialog just closes

EDIT: NVM it works!

If you press one of the buttons, it will close the dialog, i don't think you can stop that.
But it doesn't send any messages either when it's an invalid ID?

I would advice to simply run sscanf against it. Way simpler, and it provides the ability to input a name as well.
