[PHP] questions about a self-made mini chat

2002-05-05 Thread The_RadiX

Try telling the frame (text one) to go to a location. instead of just
refreshing..


It may just work... :) I think that annoying click only occurs on
refresh/reload not actually going there..

 That's an IE problem. Use Opera or Netscape if you don't want the click or
 see if there's an option in IE to disable the click.

[PHP] questions about a self-made mini chat

2002-05-04 Thread Duncan

Hi there,

i have some questions to solve some problems, i recently encountered with my self made 
mini chat script.

Ok, i use the meta-refresh in the main chat-messages frame to update the frame every 
few seconds.
In windows OS, you always get that click sounds whenever it refreshes the frame. Is 
there any way to stop this?

I provided the script with a Users online-list, but when a user simply closes the 
browser, he won't get deleted from the list, because of not having used the logout 
function.
What would be a nice way to catch this exception?
I thought about adding a timestamp to the user online list table and every time the 
user submits s.th. new the timestamp gets updated. If the user didnt post for about 
...lets say 5 minutes, then he gets deleted from the table by the script.
...well, thats just what i thought about so far, but would this cause too much MySQL 
traffic?

Regards,

Duncan

Thanks for the reply.

Oh, i just tried Opera 5.x and it messed up my whole script... lol,
actually, for no reason it added about 10 login entries to the database, 
some matched the current one, others were from earlier logins with Opera.
I think this might be related to the cache, so i need to find a way, 
so that Opera doesn't cache the sites...
i found one for IE, so that the script works just perfect in IE now.

Will check out Opera and (maybe) Netscape issues now, cause no1 wants an 
IE only site ;)


Regards,

Duncan
