Thank Wii for sending me the ASP Chat.

It works well in English but It doesn't support UTF-8.

If you know any ASP CHAT source that can support UTF-8. Please let me know.

Thanks.

Its just an encoding scheme for Unicode characters.


I just liked to know what Hizoze means with the chat supporting UTF-8...

Coud you explain (or anyone) how to get this hooked up to my forums? I have tried all night, and keep getting:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.

inc_system.asp, line 57

BTW the readme file doesn't tell how to set it up-nor what to point to from a link-only some things to modify.

Actually, it should work just like it is from the zipfile. If you have moved the database or folder it will not work unless you change the paths.

If it should work fine form the zip file, do I just send them to default.asp in my chat dir?

' Create object reference to our database connections
Set Conn_Sys = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set Conn_Mail = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

Conn_Mail.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("mails.mdb")
Conn_Sys.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("system.mdb")

Shouldn't I have to change some of this to point to my own db directory? I have tried, but it hasn't worked. What am I doing wrong?

No go-same error-

You sure you didn't edit the files and tell them where to physically locate the db's?


[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path.

This concerns me. Why is it saying "unknown"??

it worked for me straight from the zip file....

if the databases are in the same directory as the rest of the files it should work...if you moved the databases you would need to update the paths in inc_system.asp

I placed my databases in the cgi-bin directory therefore I changed the code to reference that: make sure that the code in blue below is the path for your databases

' Create object reference to our database connections
Set Conn_Sys = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set Conn_Mail = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

Conn_Mail.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/cgi-bin/mails.mdb")
Conn_Sys.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/cgi-bin/system.mdb")

mine are default, and they are in the same chat dir- i moved them to my bin directory and changed the paths to that and recv'd same error=, so I changed it back to default.



Any other ideas?

i have found that this chat only seems to work with ie version 5.5 and above. i will almost bet that you are running ie 5.01.

TANGO

Thatīs right - the problem with this chat is that itīs not very compatible - in Netscape it looks terrible.
