vb.org Archive - [AJAX] vBShout v2.0

The problem with this shoutbox, is that through experience, if you get alot of members doing shouting, it seriously bashes the server. Its crashed mine in many cases. (Especially on a shared server.) There are other bugs and such as well that need fixing. While this shoutbox is a nice hack, its totally been unsupported. Its been basically dumped by the person that made it. A one shot deal. So if anyone knows anything about ajax and php..etc...please try and help expand upon this and fix the problems its causing by getting permission to fix this. Thank you.

Yes, this hack is not good for boards with a lot of members/doing shouts at the same time as it crashes the mysql server with the the overloading connections.

It took awhile for me to figure out that the shoutbox was causing the problem. After I removed it, my server load dropped down to 2-3 (while it can be 10-50 average when the shoutbox is on)

no no NOOOO... I did the upgrade and now when members post there are all kinds of crazy symbols... they can't use the < or the > or the " at all..
but they're getting stuff like &quot; in place of it..... and I'm getting database errors up the yimyang!!

how can we fix this???

Got the same error.

Everytime a HTML special char is converted the phrase "&amp" adds before the char.

It seems that the converted chars are converted twice.

First the user makes an input like "<". After the PHP function it's "<" and then the string is converted again to "&lt;".

The "Insert" into the database is correct. ("<")
