There actually isn't much technology in a chat room. It is a fairly simple program. Basically you have a webpage which checks Someplace retrieves all the messages from Someplace and prints them, then provides a place for the user to enter stuff into Someplace. Someplace can be any number of things such as a flat file, or a MySQL database table. Basically anywhere you can stick stuff and anyone can retrieve it. The only thing left, then, is to update the page with new entries from time to time. While Netscape makes this easy with server push, you are probably going to want something like a Meta Refresh so the IE people can use the chat too. You probably also want to put the form for entering new messages in its own frame so that someone isn't halfway through writing a message when the whole thing refreshes. That's pretty much it. If you have any specific questions let me know.

for the interaction and performance of a chat room i would choose for java, php is stateless and therefore it's not easy to see when a user is logged in or out or anything like that.. with the help of JAVA it's possible to build fairly easy an client and a server class which does the communication for you.. PHP is not really the thing to build chat appplications in.. Diadon [EMAIL PROTECTED] schreef in bericht [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

I whole-heartedly agree with this statement. There are several great Java clients (including IRC clients) for chatting, but I have never seen a server side scripting chat implementation worth anything. - Original Message - From: Emile Bosch [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2001 5:18 PM Subject: Re: Re[2]: [PHP] Please help!!!

Sascha's ircg (http://schumann.cx/ircg) actually works really well. As well as any Java-based ones I have seen. -Rasmus On Wed, 19 Sep 2001, Matthew Simpson wrote: I whole-heartedly agree with this statement.
