i installed the most popular chat mod on smf forums called ajax chat. i am certain i did everything correctly.

but when i try to test it i get a 403 on byethost. ive also had problems with phpbb

this must mean that byethost must not allow ajax

does anyone know of a server that will allow me to use this mod?

AJAX isn't a "mod", nor is it installed into Apache (or other web server) in anyway. AJAX is basically just submitting HTTP requests via JavaScript. It is easy to disable at the client end, but not not so simple for the hosting provider.

 

What are you trying to do in the request? Try observing the HTTP headers sent to spot the problem*. I imagine the URL is malformed or something like that, that is causing the server to return this error code.

 

* If you're using Firefox, there's a good plug-in called "Live HTTP headers" you can use.
