Title: GMG Basic Chatbox Code Php+Html/Javascript
Post by: Gan on October 02, 2012, 12:07:33 PM

Here's the basic code that's the base of the GMG chat box.
Use freely, no credit needed, learn from it, build on it, obliterate it, feed it to your pet wolf...

Ask any questions here.

You're always so modest, Gan! ::) Did you at least sign your name in the first comments?

Ah, my bad. I forgot to mention, you need to setup an SQL database to conform to the PHP scripts.
You can re-download the scripts, I've added some markings at the top where you need to insert your database info so it'll work.
When you set up the SQL database, you need to make a new database with a table named 'chat'.
The chat table will contain a ID, Date, Username, Text and Action rows.

Do you need help setting up an SQL database?
(May I ask what you're using this for?)

ID - bigint
Username - longtext
Text - long text
Date - date time
Action - tinyint

Try setting those, if you still get an error, post a link here and I'll take a look.(or pm me the database and ftp info and I can debug the code myself)

Your sql is perfect. Just setup the chat box on local host from the source posted above and your sql. Worked flawlessly.
