Uh uh... This would definitely be worth fixing upstream, by submitting a patch that fixes it. They should definitely be interested by it (at least, if they care about IE users). The best here would be to start a specific thread about browser compatibility on their forums, and propose to submit a patch. > 2. login problems > > I lose the session every time I refresh the page and I must login > again. > From what I have read, this is a widespread problem > I have to see how they handle cookies and session and see if I can > find the answer there. > I couldn’t test this on their installation since they work only with > guests Ok - let me know! > 3. friends > > I couldn’t find how to interact with other logged in > users. > Basically I tried to have a successful chat conversation between 2 > users logged in 2 different browsers, but they couldn’t see each > other. > I also tried to manually alter the database table to make the users > friends with each other, but with no luck. :/ Is it the same on their demo? If so, it's probably a bug, and it could be good to start another thread about this. Could be a good contribution too. Basically, to avoid troubles in the future, and to be able to esily resolve issues we get with AjaxIM, the idea is to try to become a contributor on AjaxIM and initiate good relationships with the developers over there. Once we have shown that we can contribute positively to the project, it should ease things. The only issue is that it doesn't seem to be run like a "traditional" free software project - the fact that there is only forums and no mailing-list or IRC channel, and that the project refers to "the" developer of AjaxIM, shows a different approach - but hopefully we should be able to achieve the same result if we show that we can help. Let me know if you need help on how to handle the discussion, etc. I'll be happy to do it with you if you prefer.
