Hi.... it is my first hack - phpProbe
here is it... it was tested under vbb2x RC2 and phpMyChat 0.14.4
News:
Updated on 19.07.01
- FAQ has been add
Updated on 18.07.01 The hack is compatible with version 0.14.5 of phpMyChat
- there is some javaScript code there, so the hack will not work with browsers without JS support (phpMyChat will not work with these browsers too )
- the Exit link in chat works ok now
Hack: Step 1:
open /lib/index.lib.php3 in yours phpMyChat Derictory
find:
PHP Code:

$exiturl = "http://www.blabla.com"; // the url the user will be redirected exiting the chat
if ($bbuserid == 0)
{
print "no"; //Message if the user has no cookie
exit;
}
else
{
if ($bbusername == "" || (isset($bbusername))==0)

$getusername=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT username FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserid");
$username=$getusername[username];
$bbusername = $username;
}

FAQ:
Q: I`m getting "no" every time.
A: You need to upgrade a cookie option in your VB control panel. Write under: Options->Change Options->[HTTP Headers and output]->Cookie Domain your domainname ONLY (blabla.com).
Q: I`m getting "you need to register" error.
A: Enable chat using for not registered users in your phpMyChat config (/config/config.lib.php3).
Q: I`m getting "wrong password" error.
A: Make shure you have deleted all user accounts in your chat and have only administrative one. If you are logging is as administrator note that you have to enter your password EVERY time you are logging in.

Odd, you are right. lol. I must have an error somewhere else though, if I try to logoff of the chat, it gives me another 'page cannot be displayed'. Maybe the default directory structure is weird for the installed phpMyChat on VO?
Yes, the exit link on the top right side. When I do it, it sits for a while and then a "Page Cannot be Displayed" message is shown by the browser. It is trying to use this link:
Yep, that was the problem, thanks so much. Now I just have to edit their UI screen and put some of my headers and footers on it and it's all set! Thanks.
No, unfortunately. I have a shared one at VO. I might move things back to my DSL line though, its slower than it was when I ran it on a server at home. LOL.
