Hi, I've decided to launch a chat room on my website. There are quite a few modules in the repoitory so i'm kinda lost. I need a simple chat moduel so I could put in a block so people could chat on any page within the website. Any ideas?

Re: Chat module needed

actually i use a script designed by Tufat
http://www.tufat.com/s_flash_chat_chatroom.htm

cost 5 bucks but its well worth it
I realized that with getting over 3 million hits a month
i needed to do two things to my XOOPS site

one - Make sure the chatroom is running on its own MySQL database

two - all the files that get downloaded, streaming on the website are actually coming from a different server.
Reason i say this is because
what happens when your site grows.
For something like a CHATROOM or streaming mp3s
youll realized REALLY fast how much they can slow down your webiste and its page loads + SQL querries

i would honestly say, get a seperate App for a chatroom like the one i linked you to.
