Miscellaneous Hacks - Simple pjirc integration

This hack will allow you to run the pjirc java applet in a vB3 driven page.
It will sort out the user name posted from a form, sent in the URL or for
a logged in user from vB globals.

You can have a link that sorts out the user in advance and sends the nick
in the URL, perhaps on forumhome...

You must first be a registered member to view any code.

You can have a html page with a form that asks for a nickname.
(utilized for guests in this version of the hack.)

Logged in users nicknames are sorted out with vB globals if a logged in user goes directly to irc.php.

Guests will get the login form unless you restrict guests.

It's a quick and easy to install and it's easy to maintain during vB upgrades.

Release note: Tested and in use on vB 3.0.1

EDIT:
Uploaded v 3.0.0 RC1 Template updates for w3c validation

Thank you.

I'm using this code on two vB3 3.0.0 Gold sites and will support this as time allows. There are a few things that could come up with the pjirc app itself and I can't say their support forums are newbie friendly. Other then that I think the pjirc app is the greatest java IRC client yet for free.

That is great! Do you have a screenshot? Maybe add to vBhacks

Here's a screen shot of the login page guests will see if you have not disallowed guests.

One of the error message guests see if you disallowed guests.

A pic of the chat client itself.

EDIT:
Updated SS's.

This hack is nice. Its using the same javascript irc client Im using on my site. I have implemented it a little differently using the irc channel hack tho. Good job man.

Thanks...I did it out of necessity and for simplicity. There's always more then one way to skin a cat though!
