I've thought about using Jabber for inter-office communications, but what I'm looking for is a chat room where customers can log in and join in on a moderated chat. I'm not sure that Jabber can be easily adapted for this purpose.

Have you considered Jabber? http://www.jabber.org/ It's not web based, but
it and the clients are open source. We are testing it @work and are
finding it to be pretty well put together.

Hey Everybody,

I've been trying to find a good open source web chat program to run on
one of our servers. I can't seem to find one that is really good. I
checked sourceforge and googled around some, but all the ones that I
found were incomplete, or didn't have a lot of the features that I'm
looking for. I tried webchat, phpMyChat, and phpOpenChat. The basic
functionality that I'm looking for is to require a login to enter a
chat, and being able to moderate a chat thereafter. So, basically, I'd
invite certain people to a chat, they'd log in, and then I'd have a
special guest (or something like that) there for them to chat with (but
being able to control what questions make it to the special guest).


Anyone know of a good program?  I guess it doesn't necessarily have to
be open source, but would like to keep it to be rather inexpensive (<
$300).


thanks,
