Who's In Chat for FlashChat

This is a mod for use with FlashChat - a $5 chat script that is worth WAY more than $5.

FlashChat can be purchased at http://www.tufat.com

Out of the box, FlashChat works with Vbulletin 3.

Unfortunately, the only way I was able to fix it was to delete it from my server. I really do wish it would work properly though, would have been a great tool!!

I would also like to know how to implement the conditional. I am new to this and would love to learn.
Thank you in advance for your help.

don't take out the html... just take out the css.

What does that mean?

remove this code from info.php:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
.normal {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
}
A {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #0000FF;
}
A:hover {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #FF0000;
}
-->
</style>

i'd like to reiterate that this hack will NOT work if you the arcade installed. if you take that code out of the arcade file, your arcade ceases to work properly.

Instead of taking that out of the info.php, I just changed the size from 12px to 11px.

I msut say for 5 bucks this is a great addition to my site. Seems to be workign pretty good.

Could anyone possibly suggest a simple modification to the sample info.php to return just the number of users in chat (all rooms combined)? I might be able to figure it out, but I'm afraid I will mess it up. Thanks

Edit: Never mind, I think I figured it out. It was a bit confusing because I found there was already an info.php in my FlashChat directory and it had the code I needed..

Okay, looks like I can't get this to work after all.

I modified info.php and got it so when I run it directly it spits out the correct HTML. But whenever I try to put a reference to $chatwho in one of my templates, I get this...

Warning: fopen(./appdata/appTime.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in <my home dir>/vb/FlashChat/inc/classes/chatServer.php on line 60

Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in <my home dir>/vb/FlashChat/inc/classes/chatServer.php on line 61

Warning: fflush(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in <my home dir>/vb/FlashChat/inc/classes/chatServer.php on line 63

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in <my home dir>/vb/FlashChat/inc/classes/chatServer.php on line 64

Any thoughts on this much appreciated.
