Dear all

I hv a very simple,yet challenging,school project complete(kinna webbased icq chat) and i knw little abt php.

Firstly i have to select the user to whom i want to chat(from the list of online users)and on selection a message or a prompt has to be sent to the selected person who will inturn have a facility to ACCEPT OR DENY.

If the person accepts then the conversation betweeen me and him must be the only messages that appear on screen.

I have very little idea and i hope you ppl can help me.

Thank u all.

    i would imagine that icq needs a persistent connection... ie, you have to listen for messages from other icq users... that might prove somewhat difficult considering the nature of php...

      I've seen IRC done with this. They basically kept the 80 port open, basically streaming the information to the web browser. So if the web browser is still up, it would keep the connection up on IRC. Just do a search for PHP IRC and it should help a bit..
