I should add I don't actually *use* IE7, I was just testing stuff in IE9 developer mode, and noticed the bar when viewing as IE7.

For me it seems fine in IE8 and IE9.

Talking about the sound, i made a sorta hack to the sound addition making it use flash and externalInterface to make a switchable sound alert; it require a custom made flash movie, swfObject and modifications to the product code and one of the templates but now i have sound notifications that can be switched off ^^

Just import this and over write the old one.

That's it :-) Thank's

BUT: my status is every time: away?

Anyone got a tip on how to make a separate tab at the top of my forum for this, and then only have it show up on that tab's page?

If I'm reading this correctly, it will allow remote PHP code execution on my server. I do not know if there is a vulnerability in the chatbox code, or if my site was targeted because I have the chatbox installed, but either way I figured you should know about it.
Am concerned about this, is that a chatbox vulnerability already addressed or is related to some other security flaws?

I would like the chat to be shown on index page (working) but also on url.com/search.php?do=getdaily ?

I have it already being shown on index but how can I show it on the getdaily page?

What do I enter in "Show ChatBox on pages (comma separated THIS_SCRIPT locations)
Blank to show on all pages (not recommended because of server load)" (Right now its "index")

and?

"Show ChatBox in templates (comma separated template names)" (Right now its on ForumHome)
