Hello there I have a custom chat that functions properly; however, it doesnt properly display the usernames. Can someone help me with this?
Notice how when you type, it doesnt show the username. such as below
PHP Code:
<?php
// Start a session and get/generate a random user_id
// We'll use this user_id to create pseudo-uniquely colored chat lines later
// Close the session (a session can only be accessed by one process at a time)
error_reporting(0);
session_start();
header('Cache-control: private'); // IE6 fix
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
//if (!isset($_SESSION['USER_ID'])) $_SESSION['USER_ID'] = rand(1, 24);
//$USER_ID = $_SESSION['USER_ID'];
$con = mysql_connect ("xxxxxxx","xxxxxxx", "xxxxxxx");
mysql_select_db ("xxxxxxx");
$userid = intval($_COOKIE[bbuserid]);
$sql = @mysql_query("SELECT username FROM user WHERE userid=$USER_ID");
while ($row = @mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
$username = $row['username'];
}
session_write_close();
ob_flush();
flush();
// Path to the text files holding the chat window content
$fn = 'chat.txt';
// Did the browser request the chat content?
// If so, it provided this script with its last known line number
$read = &$_GET['r'];
if (isset($read)) {
// Create the chat file if neccessary
if (!file_exists($fn)) {
touch($fn);
chmod($fn, 0644);
}
if ($read == 0) chat_write('<E>');
// The script will not exit on its own on user disconnect
// this way we can later add a "user left chat" message
ignore_user_abort(true);
$i = 0;
while (true) {
// Open the chat file and get the current line number
$f = fopen($fn, 'r');
flock($f, 2);
$offset = 0;
$offset = trim(fgets($f));
// Break the loop if the browser is not up to date
if ($offset > $read) break;
// If the browser is up to date, wait
flock($f, 3);
fclose($f);
@set_time_limit(0);
// By default we wait 3 seconds between each check
// However, after one minute of complete silence in the chat we step
// back to 10 second periods to save server resources
if ($i > 20) sleep(10);
else sleep(3);
// To check for user disconnection we have to output at least one byte
// We'll echo a line break since this does no harm to our JavaScript
echo "\n";
ob_flush();
flush();
if (connection_status() != 0) {
// This is where a user disconnection is detected
// You could add stuff to display "user left chat" messages here
chat_write('<L>');
exit();
}
$i++;
}
// If the loop was exited, we end up here
// Now, echo all missing lines
while ($s = fgets($f)) {
echo utf8_encode($s);
if ($offset <= ++$read) break;
}
// Close the file, exit
flock($f, 3);
fclose($f);
exit();
}
// This function writes one line into the chat file
// For easiest accessibility newer lines are on top!
function chat_write($write) {
global $USER_ID, $fn;
// Maximum line count
$maxlines = 35;
if (trim($write) == '') return;
// Create the chat file if neccessary
if (!file_exists($fn)) {
touch($fn);
chmod($fn, 0644);
}
// Open the chat file and get the current line number
$f = fopen($fn, 'r+');
flock($f, 2);
$offset = 0;
fscanf($f, "%s\n", $offset);
// Increase by one as we're adding a new line now
$offset++;
$i = 0;

// First we have to read the whole file
// Lines are being read one by one until we're at the end or until we reach $maxlines
while (($i < $maxlines) && ($s = fgets($f))) {

// This is the actual line we're adding
// You see: The chat file contains JavaScript calls
// This way no parsing of the lines is neccessary
// We'll just need to eval() them in our JavaScript

// Go to the top
fseek($f, 0);
// Empty the file

fwrite($f, "$offset\n");
// Write the new line
fwrite($f, $js);
// And then the rest
fwrite($f, $chat);
// Close the file
flock($f, 3);

// We'll return the last added line to the calling
return $js;
