I'm fairly new to vB but catch on quickly. I'm also learning php and can pass variables. I'd like to completely install this hack, but I have a couple questions:

1) For this hack to work, does the phpmychat table need to be created as a table within the same db as vB? I've created a separate table for phpmychat.

2) phpinclude has been edited to add the vars $chatname and $chatpass - do I need to modify global.php to include this file, or is it already an included file? I can check this one myself, I suppose.

3) Last question. The var $chatroom can be defined by me for use on a button or {a href} links. But what is the content of this var? The name given in phpmychat? We have multiple 'rooms' already using another software tool, but would prefer embedded integration with vB.

I'm using vB 2.2.6. phpMyChat is installed and functional. I call it using a simple button that opens it as target=_blank so my users never really leave vB. I can certainly change this.

HEY! One more question. Is there a way to show in Who's On-Line which users are in chat? That would be kewl!
