mikesta707 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I believe I remember reading that Facebook's chat system on based on erlang. If you want a chatroom via PHP, you will probably want to use ajax or something to get the kind of functionality you want. You can try a google search for PHP chatroom.

Andy11548 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 It uses HTML, PHP and Javascript/Ajax. I have a Shoutbox/Chatroom on my forums I'm creating, youtube is a good place to check, although, codes on there are outdated nevertheless, but they work. Just use thoes as a starter then fix them up as much you can or ask others to help you with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
