TCHAT with YShout: A Free PHP + AJAX Shoutbox

YShout: A Free PHP + AJAX Shoutbox

  • So what are the new v2 features!? Oh, where to start... I've worked on this release for hours upon hours, and I'm thrilled to announce a lot of new features: * Completely rewritten and optimized. The code has been drastically reworked both client- and server-side. YShout now works better and faster. * Smileys. YShout now has smileys, yay! * Better flood control. Instead of disabling the text boxes, YShout now only disables the button, allowing you to continue typing while the flood control is active. * Admin login. You can now login and administer YShout. You can view message information, and ban/unban people easily. * Better refreshing. Rather than reloading the entire contents of the shoutbox each refresh, YShout now only sends you the latest updates, drastically decreasing bandwidth usage. * History Viewer. It's finally here, albeit with only basic functionality. You can view the shoutbox history in an easy-to-read format. To view history, just go to http://example.com/path/to/yshoout.php?history, replacing the URL with the path to your yshout.php file. * Unicode support. I'm still not *entirely* sure about this one, but I'm pretty sure I finally got unicode working! * Curseword filter. You can now choose to replace curses with asterisks. * And more. There has to be some stuff I forgot, so check it out.  - post by blasco
