Thanks a lot !

I'm going to test it now !

is there a way to use this type of addon/hack as an instant messenger. So that it opens up into a private channel essentially. You would have to incorporate some sort of popup for the person that you were wanting to chat with. Similiar to the PM popup on a new message. I think this would be a great addition.

its an idea not sure how it would implemented, the only way i can think it would be possible would be to mimic the pm popup which means the other user would have to refresh to get it, and I am not 100% sure if the pm 's are checked on every page or only on the index, i think for an instant messenger style of hack it would be easy and better to rely on a web based icq hack instead

chazman · #6 04-23-2002, 04:49 PM

either way I think it would be very handy. Since the Who's Online feature is there, it is very tempting to want to hold a quick chat with folks online. PM's are like waiting for email to show up.

give me a few days to work on that, its gonna be a major amount of work to get it working in that way

Thank you! somebody finally made an IRC chat hack that is free... Wohoo!!!

Just one thing...it uses the same username, as your vb one, but IRC servers don't allow nicknames that start with numbers...soo...is there a way to automatically change the persons nickname? cuz many people don't know the IRC command to change a nickname....
If this is not possible...doesn't matter...stil an amazing hack
Thanks a Mil!

open your chat template and find

PHP Code:


			
<div align="center"><applet archive="bocazas.jar" code=bocazas.class width=620 height=450>

    <param name="CABBASE" value="bocazas.cab">

    <param name="nickname" value=$username>

    <param name="fullname" value=$email>

    <param name="channel1" value="#d2network">

    <param name="language1" value="english">

    <param name="server1" value="www.d2network.com">

    <param name="files" value="false">

    <param name="autoentry" value="true">

  </applet> </div>

change
<param name="nickname" value=$username>

to

<param name="nickname" value="NickName">

and change
<param name="autoentry" value="true">

to

<param name="autoentry" value="false">

this will cause the irc window to pause and allow the user to change his or her nick, it also will no longer auto join IRC.

the rest of the Param you can edit are listed in the readme-bocazas.txt

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
