what language? ASP, PHP, JAVA?

I wrote one in ASP a few years back, but I'm not sure if I have the code
anymore, it essentially gave people a username and password or let them
create one, then wrote the chat from a form to a text file and another
page in the frame set displayed the contents of the file.  A third page
in the framset displayed a list of the poeple logged into the DB by
querying for a field that was either 1 or 0 depending on the status of
the user.

Hope this gives you a few pointers...
