New Feature: AikiChat!
Hi everyone,
I'm happy to announce the newest feature on AikiWeb.com: The AikiChat Real-Time Chat Room http://www.aikiweb.com/chat You'll now be able to chat with AikiWeb members from all over the world in real-time! I'm hoping to schedule special "chat" times for special topic discussions (eg "Let's meet on Thursday at 6:00pm EST to discuss beginners' ukemi issues"). A few notes:
Please let me know if you have any questions or issues, and I'll do my best to resolve them. Enjoy! -- Jun |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!

Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Finally :D

Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Thanks Jun: looks interesting. Let us know when there will be a topic chat- I'll try and check it out then.
E ya later Jill. |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Jun,
Looks good. I noticed that when I send a <private> message that it says "To Maikerus" instead of "To Xuzen" For example, when I put this "/msg [xuzen] <Your Private MSG Here>" in the message box I get To maikerus (private): <Your Private MSG Here> Coming up. Shouldn't that be "To Xuzen" as the person sending the message. When I receive the message it says its from the right person. This seems to only happen as the poster. cheers, --Michael |

Hi MIchael,
Thanks for the bug report. It should be fixed now... -- Jun |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Very cool!
I am going to have to get my staff to have the page blocked. I wouldn't get any work done!!! :D |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Hi everyone,
I'm glad you're finding the new AikiChat feature fun and interesting! There are more new features (outside of AikiChat) coming up, too. Stay tuned! -- Jun |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Hi all:
The chat thing is great fun. I'm having a bit of difficulty though.... I find it hard to get caught up on the conversation sometimes when I go on because when I screen up to read what has been said, it keeps dragging me back to the bottom when it refreshes. I have double vision so I just get focussed, and then........DOH? (no- it has nothing to do with use of social lubricants the night before...really!) Any suggestions are welcome. This really is a problem for me. e ya later Jill |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Hi Jill,
Try clicking on the "Show Archive" button next to the "Post" button. It should pop up a window with the most recent batch of messages in it that won't do any refreshes. Hope that helps, -- Jun |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Nice idea Jun, thanks for adding it. I haven't caught anyone on it yet though (guess it is hit or miss), should we do something like post that we are going to the chat room to see if anyone wants to join in?
Again, nice idea! |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
You can type in Japanese in it too.... nifty..

Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Looks like the chat program I wrote in perl a few years ago. Man chatting using http is kludgy.
Just wondering why you went this approach instead of say... setting up an IRC channel and providing a java client on the webpage? Not criticising by any means, but just wondering what you had to consider. |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Oh my GOD. If I actually participated in that there would be no turning back from being a true aiki nerd.

Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Jun,
I notice that the ACTIVE USERS LIST inside the chat room and that which is at the FORUM doesn't match. For example in the Chat Room it may list 5-6 users but when I switch to the forum page it list only 3 users. It is probably a bug. Thanks again for the wonderful feature. Boon. |

Hi Jun:

Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Another thing for the To Do List:
There is a serious script error when posting links: for some reason, the parser adds spaces within both the html and plain text. Which, from a coding stand point, just weirds me out... :hypno: |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Hi Jun
Thanks for setting up the chat function. Looks great so far :) |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Hi Haruo,
How long was the URL? If it's too long, it'll probably invoke the word wrap feature which prevents very long strings from messing up the display. I'll see if I can modify that section of the code to ignore URL links. -- Jun |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!

That's the odd thing... some of the URLs weren't even that long. Here the kicker though: for example this link Quote:

Hope this helps. |
Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
I think the URL thing is now fixed. Please let me know if otherwise...

Re: New Feature: AikiChat!
Works fine now.
Domo arigato, Jun-sama! |
