Just a suggestion: Wouldn't it be better to remove the table surrounding the shoutbox and replace it by a div container?

also the <br> there is before and after the shoutbox create a gap if you also have your advanced forum statistics installed because that one also have a <br> before and after.

If I choose white for the color of my text, it is not visible in the text input field. And light colors are barely visible. PLEASE FIX THIS. It has been brought up many times in this thread already, and it's still not fixed in 3.1.2. The text should always be visible in the input area. Two ways to resolve:

1. Make the text input background the same color as the chatbox background.
or
2. Make the default text color of the input field black, and always black, and when we submit it the color we choose shows up in the chatbox.

The first solution is most desirable and probably most easy to implement. This MUST be fixed, it is a serious usability issue!

You are given your choice of which colors to allow. On day 1 I disallowed white. On Day 2, sure enough there were users depressed they couldn't send 'invisible' white text! :)

i have problem the time is not updating in the chat :

thx

Thanks Valter, the chatbox is a work of art.

The PM notice would be great, since the one in the header is easy to miss, the smiles icon was a nice add also, although I change it to .png

Appreciated.

Actually i've installed that version in object and i'm happy with this and for now, i do not think to update because all work ok ..
But i've a genaral question :
There is an option to have a sound when there's a new message in chat or to communicate only with a user in private mode?
Bye

NO! That is NOT the issue! The issue is I DO want to allow white, but when typing in the text input box, white text cannot be seen! My chatbox background is BLACK (and black color is disabled), so I WANT WHITE TEXT. Therefore the user should be able to see what they are typing!

Is that so hard to understand???

thanks steve, ill install that tonight..

How much ressources does this hack need?

My chatbox is up and running nicely- Thank You very much..

Just one thing else, anyway to create a chat widget for the home page?
