MARK AS INSTALLED to get support and updates.

I've added more screenshots today. It now better explains some ChatBox features.

And btw I recommend to all to upgrade to latest version as there is no known bugs and it's better optimized.

Clicks *install* Thank you. Working on 3.6.8

vbAdvanced CMPS integrated problem:
Chatbox below navbar and above CMPS left sidebar with blocks and forumhome. With CMPS integrated on the forums index and the web browser window reduced, the width of the forums index below the navbar is extended by the width of the CMPS side-bar. This will cause horizontal scroll bars on small monitors. This happens even with Chatbox position disabled in options.

Mac Problem:
My Mac users are able to chat but the message formatting options such as Bold, Underline and Italic don't work and the colour selector is blank. Some Mac users are also reporting that the chatbox displays a "Busy" notice. I don't have a Mac but I tried it in Safari for Windows and the Chatbox is fully working in that.

3. Main template called on target page must contain "$cybchatbox" variable

To have ChatBox enabled on vBa CMPS:
1. Hack options - Add "adv_index" to "Show ChatBox on" setting field (values in this field should be separated by commas) > Save
2. vBa CMPS Default Settings - add "cybchatbox" to "Portal Output Global Variables" field (values in this field should be separated by carriage return) > Save
3. [Optional] Template "adv_portal" - add "$cybchatbox" to line where you want ChatBox to appear (for example below "$navbar") > Save

Will test this in few minutes.

The server load is too high, it would be great if you can make the cache in an html file, the same way it has been done in в vbshout 2.1 or something like that. Otherwise the server load is just way too high.
CPU LOAD after install Chat:

http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/9...cpuweekjb2.png

+ we need a way to change a font as well
+ and a way to show the list of active users on the main page

~ and finally – little bug report – after sending a message - there is a single space appears in the field where you type your messages.

I have vBShout 2.0 on my Forum Home.
Can I install this and use it on my special Admin/mod pages?
Any conflict?

[Symmetrical?]

[AWJunkies]

Works perfect now. I had vb v 3.6.4 and just upgraded to latest 3.6.8 and everything works perfect.

Check this to make chatbox W3C Standard

document type does not allow element "table" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag . <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">

The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.
One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "<p>" or "<table>") inside an inline element (such as "<a>", "<span>", or "<font>").
