As with any "new thing" you add, there can be an impact. I haven't had any problems on my site; but I would expect with a large number of users you'd see a higher load because it would be like all of those users hitting the refresh button every 5 seconds or so. That's why I would suggest moderating the delay to suit your needs on your site (see the 3.6 thread for that info).

At this time I have no plans to work on derivatives; sorry.

Great Hack!!!! Thank you

Do you have in mind to make something similar with feeds?

I have 2 problems.

1. Doesnt work in ie
2. Doesnt refresh in firefox,flock and opera

I didnt change a thing from the code(only the title) and all the files are in the right place.

here is the link http://www.webz.gr/forum/vaispy.php

lexx27 - your link is working just fine for me.

tried that mate, and it stil goes to the first post....

weird...and a shame, cracking hack this, but would be complete with the ability to get to the final post in a thread with just one click.

Try grabbing the current files; I think I have it resolved (hard to keep track of these two versions and the changes, lol).

Great addition. Would be nice to have the same ajax functionality with who's online.

Is there anyway to limit the characters to display ??

Way too much for me, but I may try editing the delay as suggested.
