Dynamic Live Chat 3.0

Make any page a chat room! It really is that easy...

How would you like to run a live chat room on your website? Well, now you can, on any page, using our Dynamic Live Chat Plugin.

What does this mean? Well, it means that anyone in the world who is looking at your web page will see new messages dynamically and automatically appear on the page as your visitors chat back and forth.

It really is that simple... Just check out the following section to try it out yourself...

Very simply... The Dynamic Live Chat Plugin consists of a combination of PHP and JavaScript, utilizing the jQuery API.

To maximize performance, dynamic variables are used within a flat text file to store messages as they arrive, only storing and displaying the number of messages that you specify within the msgConfig.php file. (The demo above, for instance, is set to 3) Every 2.5 seconds, this message file is checked to see if any new messages have arrived. If so, the message section, where the chat script is running, is automatically updated. The brilliant bit is this... No page refresh takes place when this occurs, so no other scripts on the page will be effected.

The Dynamic Live Chat Plugin is also fully accessible to the visually impaired using the JAWS For Windows, NVDA, and Window Eyes screen readers using IE7-8 and Firefox3+>.

So, in addition to having as many chat rooms as you desire across the web, every implementation of your Dynamic Live Chat Plugin will be fully and automatically accessible to the blind using the latest assistive technologies.

This is accomplished using ARIA, which causes the latest incoming messages to be announced automatically when using the latest version of the JAWS For Windows, NVDA, or Window Eyes screen readers.

The Dynamic Live Chat Plugin was created with the 'Plug and Play' principle in mind. Meaning that, as soon as you plug the script into your page, it works.

Simply follow the directions specified within the file "msgConfig.php", which contains all of the necessary configuration settings.

To skip these steps and see how the chat script works using all of the default settings, just upload all of the files included with the download to your web server, and open the file SampleChatPage.php like so...
