EZChat

Just finished a plugin called EZChat..

It is a lightweight (performance optimized!) plugin for chatting.
It uses chatrooms :)

http://demo.2basix.nl/plug.php?r=ezchat&m=room&n=Test+room+!

You can go there and test it yourself... tell me what you think off it.
This has been a lot off work for me.

Tech talk:
Ajax, JSON, it is hammer proof.
A lot off processing is done on the client side (javascript), this to minimalize performance
on the server side .

Added 38 minutes later:

By the way.. what I also want to know if other languages work... (special charaters)
like russian, polish etc.... etc...

It has separate tpl's and css (small), so you can do with it what you want :P.

I am finishing this plugin.
What it still needs is an aliasname input box when you are a guest...

I also want to include a #online users item, so that you can see if
there are users there to chat with

Ez, if you enter a smiley, the cursor is standing before the smiley.
So if you click on all smileys the appear in reversed order.

Maybe nice to change it.

nice... :( these cross browser differences....

I really hate this, it is always a Fu***** nightmare >:)

Maybe I will fix this later, it has no priority right now

//===================

I had a quick look.... I am using the 'standard' function from Cotonti to do this.
It is located in base.js

// Inserts text into textarea at cursor position
function insertText(docObj, formName, fieldName, value)

SO you must have this behaviour in Cotonti as well....

Added 9 hours 23 minutes later:

.

Finished !!! B)

Now you can see how many ppl are watching the chat... (on index, and per room in the ezchat screen)
And Guests can even input an alias name.

So it is almost done ! (some more testing.. and tweaking..)

I think that flash sound would be a bit better than java... but anyway, great chat :)
I can make a Polish langpack if you wish.
