pawn Код:

strdel(msg, 0, strfind(msg, ":") + 1); //this will return 'Prisijunges'
strdel(msg, strfind(msg, ":") + 1, strlen(msg)); //this will return 'Ance_Zas'

pawn Код:

new msg[21], pos = strfind(inputtext, ":"), length = strlen(inputtext);
if (pos != -1) 
{
    strmid(msg, inputtext, pos, length, 21);
    InfoMSG(playerid, msg);
}

if( dialogid == 312 )//Darbuotju valdymas...
{
if( response )
{
new msg[21], pos = strfind(inputtext, "-"), length = strlen(inputtext);
strmid(msg, inputtext, pos, length, 21);
InfoMSG(playerid, msg);
}
return true;
}

it gives "- prisijunges" that it deletes that string that should be left its all reverse, so how to do it ritgh?

Oh, that was a mistake by my side. Change to:

pawn Код:

new msg[21], pos = strfind(inputtext, ":");
if (pos != -1) 
{
    strmid(msg, inputtext, 0, pos, 21);
    InfoMSG(playerid, msg);
}

[ancezas]

new
msg[ 21 ],
pos = strfind( inputtext, " -" );
strmid( msg, inputtext, 0, pos, 21 );
InfoMSG( playerid, msg );
new name = strval( msg );
and the verible name is return zero, why?

[Konstantinos]

The example you gave is: "Ance_Zas: Prisijunges". The code I wrote will return "Ance_Zas" but you search for " -" and you never check if it was found or not. In case " -" doesn't exist in the inputtext, the length will be 0 and msg will not hold the name.

[ancezas]

so how to do that msg hold palyer name?

[Konstantinos]

Read what I said above, it all depends on you. The inputtext has after the name ":" or " -" character? Replace strfind with the character your inputtext holds after the name.
