lol Can you tell me what the error says in firefox ?
Sorry but i can't see any error related to the chatbox. Maybe you can www.g6-team.com. If you want i'll give you a test user.
Update: installed IE8 Beta2 and same problem. However i have tried with IE8 Beta2 in XP and no error. Odd!! But i have another "bug", in IE with inactive-mode-on-load there's no inactive-mode message only Loading... And after inactive period still no inactive-mode-message too just a (in my case) black empty screen.
Anyone else find an issue related to "[Minor] Slap user through menu item in a secondary channel are posted in the general channel. However it works correctly when inputing the command manually. "
I find that a Private Message behaves the same way.. (appears in general)
seeing as you are helping everyone here and I'm not getting a response there, I have a question.
How come so many people have the Loading issue with the Chatbox module for VBAdvanced? Do you know it?
Also, I seem to be getting aroud 10-20 emails a day telling me that the forum experienced an error. The error was related to the chatbox. Odd...
I've upgraded to the latest version and I think there's a bug in it. Sometimes the user is presented with a double shout but only they can see the double shout, everyone else sees one shout. Is that understandable lol?
Also, some members are reporting that the auto refresh hangs up and the spinny icon stays there and they need to F5 to get rid of it. I have it set at 5 seconds auto refresh, is that too quick?
Not that I haven't likely broken it, but is there a particular plug-in area or global setting I can see to determine what is preventing $mgc_cb_evo_var from working in my arcade pages (I did the requisite modifications to the global parameters, the list of other pages and the insertion of $mgc_cb_evo_var ) and also the WhosOnline page (online)...?
I've even tried to add it to the FAQ page (added faq to List of the other forum pages as well as $mgc_cb_evo_var to the area under the navar in the template...
Where would one look first for signs of the cause?
I'm getting the same problems only I'm trying to get it on the realtime posts page. I tried to get it on the arcade page too but that didn't work either. Glad it's not just me!

Thanks.
5 Seconds might be too soon. I am using 10 seconds and it seems to work out just fine
