on *:text:$(* $+ $me $+ *):#: { 
  if ($me == %away)  { 
    .notice $nick Sorry $nick but I am away. Reason: %here $+ . To Leave a Message w/o color type !page <messagehere>
  } 
}
on *:text:!page*:#: {

    query $me $nick said $2- at $asctime
  }

}

Not sure the point in this if you have Invision... cuz invision comes with an away setting already on there. BUT i was wondering.... does this come with a Pop up box for the !page? if not it would be pretty nifty..... and does it have to be set with out color? stupid questions i know. but hey if i dont ask no one else will :p

I know that I don't have to change my code but new ideas always help which is why I just took parts of Fuzionx's code and added it to my original. I always just take what I want from what people say and leave the rest. :)

Lestat you dont have to change your code, just cause they posted their option, your code works, and this is a different way, Jethro created the $regex identifier ( i dont know if you already knew that ) just to confuse you guys who are starting

To further improve your suggestion, Fuzionx, regex is well suited for this operation:

on $*:text:$(/(^| )(\Q $+ $replacecs($me,\E,\E\\E\Q) $+ \E|^!page)( |$)/Si):#:{
  if ($away) {
    if ($regml(2) == !page) { query $me $nick said $strip($2-) at $time $date | halt }
    .notice $nick Sorry $nick but I am away. Reason: $awaymsg $+ . Leave a message if you want.
  }
}

Two text events are combined as one, and the control codes are stripped out because of the /S modifier. Some people like to use color, bold, or underline embedded text, and if your mIRC is not set to strip incoming messages, the trigger for $me and !page will not respond at all.

I improved your code a bit.

alias awy { 
  away $iif($1-, $1-, No reason specified)
  tnick $me $+ |Away
  amsg I'm Away now. Reason: $awaymsg
}

on *:text:$(* $+ $me $+ *):#: { 
  if ($away)  { 
    .notice $nick Sorry $nick but I am away. Reason: $awaymsg $+ . Leave a message if you want.
  } 
}
alias back {
  if (!$away) { echo $color(info) -a * You're not away | halt }
  amsg I am back from $awaymsg $+ . Been away for $duration($awaytime)
  away
  nick $mnick
}

Use of $away, $awaytime and $awaymsg instead of variables.
Use of tnick (temporary nick) and $mnick (main nick) for an away nickname.
Use of $me in the ON TEXT event so the user doesn't have to fill it in him/herself
Deleted the !page command since people rather message you themselves instead of using !page
Awaytime shown when you come back.
The alias bck renamed to back, makes more sense.
Check if you are away when the /back command is executed.

I hope this helps you. ;)
