Can any one guide me on creating a chatting app with asp.net /vb.net


-

the best way to implement a Chat is using Java or Flash, bacause they

profile a refresh textbox that you are refreshing every second and the user

wont notice that!



but using asp.net you can start bilding a Shared Class and have there the

value from the chat window, Shared Class contains variables that are shared

amontg all users in the same page (independent of browser/os/whatever) and

off course that you can always go further using atlas and a gridview, atlas

has a nice feuture that is you can refresh part of the page only using

time... for example every 5 seconds...



Atlas: atlas.asp.net">atlas.asp.net



give it a try and when you have more question post it here :-)

and you need a method to detect new/change conversations and you need to

store them on the server while you are having the conversation. I wrote a

small chat at the used the cache to detect new chats and xml files to store

the chats. I never really used it much, it was just a challenge of sorts but

it worked. Would be happy to share it with you if you email me direct. It

was written back with 1.1 but I never updated. You may need to tweak it a

bit.
