           Summary: Suggestion: Floating Chat toolbar(like facebook)
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Mediawiki should have a floating chat toolbar that is displayed at the bottom
of the page when users login. No installation is needed. 

The floating toolbar will show a list of usernames that are viewing a specific
wiki article,how many new messages a person has, and there will be a blank
space for Multiple chat windows. 

Facebook has a floating Chat toolbar and you can see an example of it 
here: 
http://sonicage.com/btan/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/facebook.jpg 
(look at the bottom of the screen) 

The floating chat toolbar should be aligned right at the bottom of a user's
screen and make sure it spreads completely to the right and left edges of the
screen. 

Multiple chat windows should be able to be open so people can chat to an
unlimited number of ppl and if all the chat windows cannot fit on the toolbar,
then there should be an ARROW so users can scroll the toolbar to find the chat
windows. 

The Chat Window should show whether a user is still online,timestamp on
messages,emotion icons,etc. Of course file transfer would not be possible
because this wouldn't work because users don't have to install the floating
chat toolbar. 
 People should be able to minimize the chat Window and the FIRST message from
someone should ALWAYS popup on screen. 

There should be a button to DISABLE chat if users don't want to chat and to
others it shows the person as online but also show a DISABLED sign so they
can't send them any messages. If a person wants to ENABLE chat then there
should be an ENABLE button. The last ENABLE/DISABLE setting a user chooses
should be SAVED and set to it when the person next signs into Mediawiki. 

The floating Chat toolbar should work in Internet Explorer 6,IE7 and 
IE8
