I did that for a site for my buddy... i tried a few different ways, and the current way seems to work decently... but i've been thinking about altering it... what i did for that one, is it inserts into a database what the person wrote, then on eth other side, it pulls every x seconds from the db, and using ajax adds to the <div>. it is a pain in the ass, but yeah, it works. I also had a flag for "typing" indicator. i am sure there are many different ways to do this, but posting to a db, and pulling from the db seemed to be the logical way to do it when i did that... my buddies old way of doing it, is at http://radiokaos.com it just posts to the db, and then refreshed the iframe every 20 seconds or something. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
