There seems to be some weirdness with users not logging out. I think the logout function isn't working.
If I log out, then try to log back in, I can't change my user name. The fields are greyed out.
If I use another browser I can come in as another user, and it still shows my old user is logged in.
I looked up the cookies and deleted them on my PC, and it stopped the greying-out bit. But I can't tell my users to delete the chat cookies before they want to chat!
Anyone have any ideas / fixes?
Also, chatting with the Opera browser causes everything to echo. IE works fine.
Getting this thing working really took some doing. Definitely not a project for people not familiar with Unix, mysql, PHP, and an understanding ISP.
Plus I don't think the developers read this forum at all. There are some things on the German forum, but I don't read German. Translators don't work so well and take too long. :-P

If you don't want this feature, add to 'chat::logout()':
unset($_SESSION['chatter']);

The authentification data are still active within the session. using another browser creates a new session, with maybe a new chat-user.

Opera has a javascript bug, a document.write('foo') reloads the output frame instead to appand it. So we implement a workaround to get POC running with Opera.

certainly we read this forum, but I recommend to use the forum at http://www.h-h-c.de/pocforum/ which is a multilanguage forum (english/german)
remember, we all have jobs taking 10 h of our time each day..., have a family, have kids, ...
enjoy POC,

Is this what you meant?
In "class.Chat.inc" I found:
...
function logout()
...
//unset($_SESSION['chatter']);
...
//session_unregister('chatter');
...
Both of these lines were commented out. I uncommented them. That seems to have done the trick. Did I need to uncomment both lines?
I'm really glad you guys read the forum here. Please don't take my comments negatively. I think you did a terrific job. POC is just rough around the edges and hard to get going. I realize you are still working on it and can't anticipate every ISP configuration.
The other forum is almost all German. I have used translators on some posts but that doesn't work very well. Plus I can't search that way. :(
hi,
> Did I need to uncomment both lines?
sure, you have to uncomment both lines.
> Please don't take my comments negatively.
No problem, but it's mostly better, if the community knows who stands behind it...

Hey, that's really deplorable! Only one language you speak? *hmm* German is very interesting!
;)
If you don't ask, there will never be english content to search into.

Mais non, je parle francais aussi. Peut-etre que je vais apprendre l'allemand a l'avenir.

Good point. But the English speakers seem to be here.
