did you code that yourself or did you pick up a base somewhere?

pfgannon · May 2004

im pretty site he picked it up from somewhere else....
im assuming u mean the one here

SEbasic · May 2004

Get rid of that avatar.

Tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo distracting!

Python · May 2004

lmao.

no i didnt code it myself. i downloaded it fomr somewhere. i will be adding my own customizations to it though, just gotta get permission first

rallyfan · May 2004

where did you download it from.

I went into the chat room today. I had a really nice conversation with myself. :shock:

Anyway, I don't know if it's the refresh rate that did it, but the background colors for the chat area and member area kept changing which was causing some problems with posting in the chat. I don't know if that was on my end, or with the chat room.

I don't think I would use it much with that interference, unless it was my computer and I could stop that.

Is there a problem with it?

kink · May 2004

you wouldnt be giving up any resource links would you?

Chroder · May 2004

Probably this hack over at phpBBHacks.

pfgannon · May 2004

yeah thats what im guessing.
u can find anything and everything to do with phpbb over there

Python · May 2004

ye thats the hack. the refresh rate is on 2 seconds i think. i may need to increase this or find a better, live chat hack

SEbasic · May 2004

A better live chat hack is in order.

If i go in there, I can hear the 'click' of refresh.

When you use your PC as a HiFi, it can get pretty annoying.

Chroder · May 2004

You can't really host a live chat over HTTP. You can "trick" a browser into thinking it hasn't recieved the whole page yet, but that isn't very good practice. You'll need to use Java.

Python · May 2004

ye java would be fine. but how could it be done?

come on chroder your great with PHP and quite good at java. think you would be able to create some sort of basic java chat? there would be a reward of 1500 forum dollars

Chroder · May 2004

I mean a Java applet, Javascript won't cut it either

I don't know how to create Java applets (yet

)

Chroder · May 2004

But there are lots of free Java IRC applets you could use. Just create a new chan on Freenode and link the chat to that.

kink · May 2004

heres an applet , of course youll have to add your own code

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Developer Studio">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<TITLE>Document Title</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>



<applet width="200" height="400">

</applet>

</BODY>
</HTML>

rallyfan · May 2004

wicked.

one thing what html do we put in there.

Chroder · May 2004

You can't simply say <applet> and have a chat

You need something to load.

Python · May 2004

thats exactly what i was thinking
