Just re-read your request, sorry, it sounds like you mean in addition to the forumhome listing of who is on line you want to see who is in chat without having to click the who's online detail link. There is no option for that.

For some reason it still doesn't work. I'll figure out what I'm doing wrong eventually.

Thanks. Great hack!

I just want to make sure that this is the way it is suppose to be working as I am not familiar with any other chat programs other than ICQ, MSN, etc... and they don't do this.

Is the text suppose to "blink" when the screen refreshes?

Thanks,
Lisa

Yes :nervous:

Yes it dose

Very good ZT :) 2/5 of my users use netscape/firefox so :)

quick question: when does the "Users Currently In vBChat" refresh. It seems to take forever. For example one of my members that Whos Online doesnt show to be on the forums is somehow still in chat. Its kinda odd to be chatting to someone who isnt there anymore

The text may blink for slow modems because the page has to refresh, remember php outputs an HTML page and is not an applet, so cant dynamicly change, so a reload is needed im afraid.

And to the person who said this uses a lot of server resources needs to re-check the code, it barely uses anything at all, an additional 1 query on the page, the users in chat iframe uses 1 query, and the chat itself uses 1 query (possibly an extra few for extra msg's and such), but barely anything compared to the rest of the default page's on vBulletin forums itself.

As for refresh taking forever, possibly your server loading slow perhaps, both frames are set to refresh every 8 seconds.

As for giving me the code for the chat in forum-index, no need, its only a simple bit of php to draw out the data already loaded and a template edit, thanks for the offer but i prefer to do things on my own :)
