Chat in an external program

[buscon]

I'd like to use the taobums chat in external program, not in the browser

Is that possible ? What kind of chat is this ? IRC, Jabber or what ?

 

Thx

Hi Buscon,

 

Unfortunatly I've got no idea. I don't really play with the chat, I had a quick look but couldn't find any "info" Sorry.

 

Perhaps someone might know what sort of plug in a V3 powerboard would generally use.

it's java, there is a module to download here but the basic client uses a web page

someone tried an IRC client to connect but nothing furhter on what happened

you could try these settings in irc and see?

Users behind firewalls may need to inform their local IT/network administrator to allow TCP connections on ports 9000-9009 at client.invisionchat.com

 

alternatively you can open it in a different browser. e.g. browsing taobums in firefox while chatting in chromium to prevent from crashing firefox.

thanks for the info.

I've actually already tried with IRC using as host client.invisionchat.com and all the ports between 9000-9009 but it doesn't work.

I think it's just a matter of port. I'll try again and let you know.

I always thought I'd found my "tech support" title in a cornflakes box

 

Thanks for the info and good luck with the project.

I've asked on the forum of IP Board and no, it's not possible:
