[PHP] Chat-name forms and Suffixes with Validation...

2004-06-15 Thread Ryan Munevar
Hi Everyone,
	I'm making a form that takes the chat name user enters and combines it 
with the chat suffix.

	 Does anyone have a list of all the available chat clients out there?  
So far I have, AIM, .mac, iChat.
	
	What's the easiest way to combine them with the actual name?  
JoeTreeman6.mac for example.

	But how do I do it if it's something like SarahPoley69 on AIM?  Does 
it even have a suffix?
	
	What about checking to see if they are on line?  Not signed into the 
site but actually on line yaking away in cyberspace somewhere.

	And is it possible to verify a chat-names authenticity?  Like does it 
really exist?  Or if it's one of those sex bots that bombards the AIM 
chat rooms with 18/f/Web Cam crap?

Thanks in advance.
   
 Sincerely,
   
 Ryan Munevar

I'm unclear on what you're asking here.


Does anyone have a list of all the available chat clients out 
there?  So far I have, AIM, .mac, iChat.

There are virtually endless numbers of chat clients, not to mention
protocols. It is  up to  you wich ones to support:

  To name a couple:
jabber (probably the best to support)
ICQ
Yahoo!
zircu

again unclear.

remains unlear.

   What about checking to see if they are on line?  Not signed into the 
 site but actually on line yaking away in cyberspace somewhere.
 
Depends on the protocol

   And is it possible to verify a chat-names authenticity?  Like does 
   it really exist?  Or if it's one of those sex bots that bombards the AIM 
 chat rooms with 18/f/Web Cam crap?

Depends on protocol. but I might be rather interested in that
18f/cam stuff ;)

you've been hearing about.  No, sir.  Our model is the trapezoid!
