One problem I am having brodle is that I can't log in with my nickname which is "C.C." Is this possibly because of the "." - ? Or could it possibly be because someone in the IRC community has the same name? I have created another account just for chatting, but if there is a way around me using my main admin nickname I would rather use it.

IRC protocal does not allow periods in usernames. That would be why it doesnt allow you. These are the acceptable characters
`^-_[]{}

I will see what I can do to make it so that any username can be used but it will take time.

No hurry brodle...
Using the other account is no big deal. Just let me know when you have figured it out.
Thanks.

make sure you are using e.js and not full.js

[PioneeR]

I was using full.js

changed it to e.js password is working fine now.

Is there anyway to make it bigger though? With full.js it filled the screen.. now it only does half.

Thanks

&width=500&height=500

Chat mod works great, thanks to all who have developed it. Only just having installed the mod I have a problem with a user which you may be able to help.

This is what they get when trying to load the chat room:

The screen's blue there's nowhere to type anything in, but when it loaded it made a little ding ding ding ding ding noise like it was working but then theres just a blue box...

I know it's a little vague but any help appreciated.

Cheers T.

in chat.php change full.js to e.js does that solve the problem?

[PioneeR]

Here is the line in my chat.php, the following still only gives a chatroom that is about half the size of what it was when I was using full.js

Whats the difference between e.js and full??

http://irc.everywherechat.com:8000/Java/e.js?room=myroomt&width=500&height=520&nick=$chatname&keypass=mypassword

&width=500&height=500

[brodle]

here is the example of the code I pas out to people. now  goosemoose added variables for building username etc.. and that is fine. The height and width variables are working fine on my end which leads me to believe this is a browser cache issue.


<!-- Begin Chat Code Here -->

<script language="JavaScript" src=http://irc.everywherechat.com:8000/Java/e.js?room=Roomname&width=600&height=600&roomstab=true&paramfilename=embedded.prm></script>

<!-- End Chat Code -->

whoa, totally different from what I was using... Would the parafilename relate to language then?

rephraasing that; these all the files that can be used:

&paramfilename=german.prm
&paramfilename=dutch.prm
&paramfilename=spanish.prm
&paramfilename=nepal.prm
&paramfilename=greek.prm

?

[fruity_baby]

I have made the change and asked the user to try again. I will let you know.

Another question: How do I create a text hyperlink for the chat page which automatically adds 'user=fruity_baby' parameter at the end of the line eg:

http://www.colourguardworld.com/forum/index.php?board=2;action=chat;user=fruity_baby

This is because I am creating a left side menu. Or am I asking for too much here?

Cheers T.

yes the paramfile name  will choose what language to deploy. I decided it is best to just use one e.js file rather then seperate files for all languages. This will allow me to update the code easier and make it more usable. omar just make sure  paramfilename=embedded.prm is the last value in the query string and it will work grat for you.

If I am understanding you right you want to link directly to the chat without going through the forums? You can do this a few ways. The code snipet I posted above is the code for embedding the chat o a webpage. there is another paramter  &nick=thenicknamehere you can pass into the code that will automatically sign someone on to the chat. Now if you have avariable liek there is in yabb for a username you can plug it into the value for &nick=thevariable.
