#7 Other servers

[Anonymous]

Hi

I was just wondering if it would be possible to make the
client connect to an IRC server that isn't running on the
web server's localhost, or to create some form of relay
system? My chat server, run from home, only has a
256k upstream so sending the applet out lots of times
could cause serious issues, where as I could easily host
it on my ISP space or from uni, making it connect
remotely to my pc like mIRC would for example. Just a
thought :)

Well yes you can.
But you have to use the signed applet.
Juste setup the signed applet on any site, and then use the
<PARAM name="server" value="your.own.ip"> to connect to your
home chat.

The signed applet display a warning just before connection.
