PLEASE HELP .php Chat Room
I have set up a chat room with PHP and its not working. It works fine when its on the main timeline, but when I put it inside a MC thats inside a MC it doesen't post the messages. It writes the message in the .txt file fine, but it doesn't post it in the Flash dynamic text where all of the posts go. ARG!!!!!

In another words, how do I set up a chat room that was originally set up to for the _root level (main timeline). Here is the PHP script that is suppose to load the .txt info.:


PHP Code:



<?
header("Expires: ".gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s")."GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
?>
<?

/*        Modified for Flashkit by swissLyons: [url]http://www.flashbuilder.ch[/url] based on the [url]http://www.peopleforfun.com[/url] version */
/*        Original script by Nicola Delbono <key5@key5.com>        */
?>

<?
$nickname = str_replace ("
"," ", $nickname);
$nickname = str_replace ("<", " ", $nickname);
$nickname = str_replace (">", " ", $nickname);
$nickname = stripslashes ($nickname);
?>

&output=
<?
$chat_file = "chat.txt";
$chat_lenght = 40;
$max_single_msg_lenght = 100000;
$max_file_size = $chat_lenght * $max_single_msg_lenght;
$file_size= filesize($chat_file);
if ($file_size > $max_file_size) {
$lines = file($chat_file);
$a = count($lines);
$u = $a - $chat_lenght;
for($i = $a; $i >= $u ;$i--){
$msg_old =  $lines[$i] . $msg_old;
}
$deleted = unlink($chat_file);
$fp = fopen($chat_file, "a+");
$fw = fwrite($fp, $msg_old);
fclose($fp);
}
$msg = str_replace ("
"," ", $message);

$msg = stripslashes ($msg);
if ($msg != ""){
$fp = fopen($chat_file, "a+");
$fw = fwrite($fp, "$nickname : $msg
");
fclose($fp);}
$lines = file($chat_file);
$a = count($lines);
$u = $a - $chat_lenght;
for($i = $a; $i >= $u ;$i--){
echo $lines[$i];
}

?>

Please Help, Chat Room ?
OK, so I've followed a tutorial on how to build a simple chat client, but it's way too basic for what I'm trying to do.

I want to build a chat room that recognizes users profile statisitics and displays them with a profile picture in the corner of the chat box.

Also would like to throw in webcam cababilities.

Does anyone know where I can dig up some advanced tutorials or books for this? All the literature shows how to set up the "simple" chat client.

Thanks

Chat Room
Whats the best way to do a chat room in flash?

I have made a chat room the only way I know how but its far from perfect. I submit text to a database when [submit] is pushed and have the flash movie load the text from the database on 10 second intervals.

Obviously this is not the best way to do this as it keeps checking the database every 10 seconds even if there hasn't been a change. It really sucks up my bandwidth

Does antone know any other way this could be done? I don't need a full explanation just a point in the right direction

There used to be a chat room on ultrashock (with little robots you could control) Anyone know how that was done?

Cheers
-Rob

Help Simple Chat Room
HI there,

i'm looking for a sample code of a simple chatting application which connects locally. just a normal login, and a chat room.

---

Chat Room Without SimpleConnect
I have done a chat room with the simpleConnect component and am now trying the same thing doing the connection manually.

The code I have is:

//**************Code start
connections=new NetConnection();

connections.onStatus=function(info){
trace(info.code)
trace(info.application.msg)
if (! connected)
{
light_mc.connect(this)
chat_mc.connect(this)
connected=true
}
};

connections.connect("rtmp:/JWTestConnection","Guest","Guesty"));
//************Code End

It's pretty clear that the connection is successful and the light_mc turns green, but the chat_mc.connect(this) doesn't seem to do anything, so I don't see the chat border , message or send button.

I'm following the O'Reilly Flash Communication Server book and can't see where I'm going wrong.

just for info. The srver side code I have is:

//********************Code Start

load("components.asc");

application.onConnect=function (client,userName,password)
{
application.acceptConnection(client);
}
//*********************Code end

Flash/PHP Chat Room
Hi there!

I want to make a really-really basic chat program integrate in my site; however I need a tutorial since I'm not that good at PHP and whatnot.

I searched these forums, tried some tutorials, but couldn't get them to work

This one was mentioned several times:

Seems decent, but can't get it to work.

So. Do any of you know any good tutorials?

Thanks in advance!

Passwords For A Chat Room?
Hey, i'm doing a project for school. I have a flash chat room made by Colin Moock at www.moock.org, and i'm going to put it into another website so the owner can host scheduled chats. The idea is to sell the passwords so he makes money off of it. Is there a way i can make an if, then statement to check to see if the password is valid and then either let them in or deny access and to only use each password once (so two people coudn't be on the same password at one time)? I was thinking somewhere along the lines of

if (password == //the passwords that he makes up)
then (gotoAndStop(accessGranted))
else (gotoAndStop(accessDenied))

does that sound like it would work? And how would I make Flash know where to look for the passwords and how to read it from the text field etc? I know this is kinda long, but i'm new to actionscript. Thanks!

Help With Flash Chat Room.
this is a cry for help for any one who has suffered defeat time and time again at gettign somethign to work.
----------
flash chat rooms i dont get it.
ive dipped my hand in everything. from digital arts, to C++ to advance photoshop filters, to 3ds max, to html and lingo and ofcourse acctionscript.

but i just dont get it.
i have been trying to make a basic online flash cat room for over a year now (by that i mean i trued doing one a year ago, failed and never tried it again until a few days ago)

but as any of you know a few days trying to make somethign work is hugly frustrating.
a few days ago, i never understood mysql (im no master now) but as soon as (with the users help on this fine forum) i made a mysql database work. i got the concept.
and i kinda get the concept of this flash chat.

now the bottom line is, i am absolutly sick and absolutly tired of trying to get this to work (anyone who has been in a similar situation im sure feels my pain, of constant frustration, confussion and failure).

--------

so to what i am asking for.
<a href="http://www.gotoandplay.it/_articles/2003/12/xmlSocket.php">http://www.gotoandplay.it/_articles/2003/12/xmlSocket.php</a>

thats the tutorial i am doing.

my server is on freehostia.com

so, what am i meant to put on my server. what am i meant to change in the code. i understand the local host should be changed, but i would of thought my localhost would be my website
peaphil.freehostia.com
but that doesnt work.




ive looked at everything, and ive read everything. and i simply dont get it. by everythign, i mean on flash chat rooms and servers, not everything ever concieved or written.

i just want to know exactly what to do, then when it finially works, i can take that information and expand it.

also, i dont know if its my host? does it allow socket connections? it doesnt say. so trying ages to get it to work of freehostia, could only lead to more frustration.

please help me, im very very much comtimplating giving up and never looking in to online interaction and communication (and as a designer i think its becoming more and more important).
