VISP chat - Chat Room Script - Advice? Help? - Webmaster

Mr. P-teo

So iv been working on this script for a while after i made a much more basic version of this. As far as chat rooms go this is very basic compared to others out there but im still quite impressed with it. Eventually i want this to become like a community project where people can contribute whatever they want.

I also plan to create an admin panel where the admin can manage users, banned words etc.

Is made with a combination of Javascript - including jQuery & PHP

Im having a few issues which are listed below but heres and image of what i have so far.

So basically im having the following problems,

- textarea newline, if i add a newline in the textarea it doesn't in the chat as there is no 

- run script when page closes.

If you feel you can help with this project then PM me, or if you just want to help with my issues then i would be grateful. Also what do you think of the design so far, and what could be done to improve it?

that looks pretty good! i like the design, but the uneven gaps bug me a litttle~ anyway~ about your issues:
[list=1]
[*]you could just replace '\n' with ' ' using JavaScript; ie. str.replace(/\n/g, " ") - i don't like the idea of multiple lines in a multi-person chat personally, but hey.[/*:m]
[*]http://api.jquery.com/unload/ - although you shouldn't rely solely on this - i think you need a ping (ie. client stayAlive()) and/or a timeout.[/*:m][/list:o]as for suggestions, i don't think forcing gender specification is a good idea, so i hope that can be optional - and maybe even disabled by default.
overall, i think you did a good job with this so far, from what i can see! ~(^.^~)

Mr. P-teo

Okay thanks very much for your input, i will look into what you said. Im hoping i can make it an open source project where people contribute to it etc.

Would be good to make it open source, if you implemented it you could enable people to make community plugins etc :)

Yer im thinking about implementing it, but its a new aspect of php that i need to look into.

Mr. P-teo

Today i rewrote almost all of the script into classes etc. The code is layed out much nicer now.

Howdy, Stranger!
