dnenb Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I'd like a simple shoutbox type of thing that's secure and uses as little javascript as possible. Do you have any suggestions? Or have you got one you'd like to sell? Please send me a pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleMassacre Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Sniko made a base for one. Its simple but uses some ajax and could use some sprucing up http://harrydenley.co.uk/Creating+an+AJAX+chat/2083230441249946124#sthash.1MuMceHc.dpbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Depending on the functionality you desire I have a paid multi chat room script available. http://makewebgames.io/showthread.php/40219-Ajax-Gang-Channel-Chat-System-PROMOTION-7-50-on-McCodes-Marketplace I also released a free simple shoutbox mod in 2010 (it's pretty old and awful) which you could also use. Might be a nice core to build upon? http://makewebgames.io/showthread.php/36710-Simple-jQuery-Ajax-Shoutbox There are other mods around this forum I did a simple search for "chat" and found this which might be suited to what you need. http://makewebgames.io/showthread.php/34435-V2-Chat?highlight=chat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnenb Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 Thanks. I've bought yours but all the javascript didn't work well for a lot of my mobile players. I've toyed around with one similar to your last link, but don't think I want to deal with text files. I'm gonna look at your second link and maybe create something out of that without javascript.

A mobile? without Javascript support? What sort of mobiles are your players on? The chat will try and sit at the bottom right of the viewable area so maybe rather annoying on a smartphone.

dnenb Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 Most phones do support javascript, I guess, but it has proven more hassle than it's worth. There's a lot of different browsers that deal with stuff in their own way, and the different screensizes doesn't do much to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleMassacre Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I don't know where I seen it but I have seen daves ajax chat kind of mixed with a chat box and daves chat was disabled if you are on mobile. There are things you can do to tell if a player is mobile or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
