The Online Chat room is now up and going. It is located in the header info under chat room.
It has a lot more features than before and you can make rooms, have a private chat etc etc.
If you can let me know of any problems

Brad,

it's pretty slow. I found another Java based chat room we can integrate into the site, and it allows you to share a whiteboard with everyone, thus allowing you draw and doodle whilst you wait for people to turn up.

I showed it to Spook, Jay, and taz, and they seemed to like it.

What do others think of the php based web chat room?

It IS very slow. Like - 3 second wait for your message to go up after hitting enter.

The php based room isn't bad, but I would like actions in it and it doesn't have them. I think actions would be more useful than a whiteboard (ok, its a good idea, but I think more novelty value than anything...).


What does everyone else think - What do you see as essential in a chat room???

I'm happy to blow the Php Chat away that gives me more MySql DB's to play with :)

Java is fine by me ...
