I have the same white "chat" box on my iphone.

The PC with Chrome has the yellow "PM" box.

Chat must not be working for mobile devices at the moment. I have tried getting in all morning on my ipad, and it still is not working. I will try later this evening.

Yup, still working out the bugs.

Not complaining but if you are able to figure out a way to keep the chat tab small when the mobile user zooms in, that would be great. It shrinks. If only it would stay smaller. I know, work in progress. Sucks not having a puter.

Kenny, I don't know what Drew's thoughts are on it but Mangus hated it and I think he's the one that got rid of it.

I'm in the mess hall right now, all alone.

I'm indifferent to it. But this chat system is more involved and less "toy-ish". (When I saw the demo at least) I've heard back from the vendor. Unfortunately they sent me an email at 01:07 this morning. And it appears they're 10 hours ahead. They're online for another 2hrs, maybe I'll hear back from them.

Ugh, the time delay makes this a slow process. Got another email about it. (They said to check the permissions on a file, I had already checked it.) Problem is, it was at 2am. They'll be online for a few more hours, maybe I'll hear back.

Are these the same folks that keep calling about my internet account from India?:naner:

Unfortunately most software support divisions are now based in other countries. Typically though, they tailor their hours to reflect ours.

Anyhow, it's more functional now. But I have more tweaking to get it like I want. (Clearly display the chatrooms, have the bar dismissible, exc.)

I have yet to see what "bar" you guys are talking about.

I have the little yellow Instant PM (0) at the bottom right of my screen but that's it.



And I don't see it when I'm drinking anyway..........

Is there going to be anyway to turn off this bar on bottom of the page?
Thanks

Click on the double down arrow on the far right of the bar. It will turn to a small chat bubble. I've still got a few things I'm working on with the bar. Right now it's only displaying who's online for IM but no count for the chatroom. There's a few more bells and whistles to come as well.
