chat box thread
Guys, if you have some issues with the chat box or would like to request a feature, post it in this thread. Repeat: POST HERE, NOT IN THE CHATBOX. IT IS ONLY FOR SMALL TALK. POST HERE IF YOU WANT ME TO PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR REQUESTS.
To see the js source code for the chat box, see https://github.com/vampirefrog/nodechat
Though I think I made some modifications from the github repo

Sure, but you must know that the chat box does not give your presence away unless you type something. There is no join or part message when someone logs in or out. But ok, I'll add that feature.Rotating Username wrote:Would it be possible to make it so that logging-in as "hidden" causes the chat box to not load at all?

vampirefrog, I have a small TODO list for you:
- fix the maximum string length for the chatbox (current limit is 256 characters it seems, something above of 400 should be safe)
- look into the issue where the chatbox shows incorrect message posting times (seems to be a timezone issue that pops up randomly)

I've fixed the max length issue, that was a database problem, but I'm not going to bother with the timestamp issue, since I've already fixed it in the new chatbox implementation:

I'll replace the current chatbox with the new one at some point. It has a few features that have been requested earlier, like the ability to hide it completely. And now it has sounds too. We can find some better sounds too.

Made chatbox resizable (try dragging top left corner).
Fixed 'expired session' bug, hopefully.
Added some styling to its titlebar and scrollbars.
Also, for those wishing to get rid of the chat box, press the "X" button. If you want to see it again, click on 'Chatbox' in the forum header, next to the logout and messages links. If you can't see a 'Chatbox' link, please let me know.
