Hi guys, anyone experience error with the shoutbox? The shoutbox hanged on me sometimes after I have successfully implemented it in my forum. The scenario is that, it will hang at the last message and refuse to accept anymore new incoming messages and the last message are just text message with smileys. There were no error generated therefore I can't determine the source of the error.
Any help from the experts here?< |

For those wanting a collapsing table for the callbox, here's a replacement "inc_shoutbox.asp":
Shoutbox
I haven't been able to get the shoutbox to freeze, so that fix will have to wait a bit.< |

| Alright! Thanks Carefree. I am not sure how the freeze came about also... Its rather random. What should i do to help when the freeze happens again? So far the only thing i can feedback is that the freeze simply don't allow new message to be added or shown unless all the existing messages is cleared from the shoutbox.< |

Take a screenshot, in case it's being caused by an image. Press Alt-PrtScr. Open wordpad, paste it in there. Save it on the web so we can see it.

| On another note, the member_name field in the shoutbox code is set to size of 255. Since the forum limits the name field to 75, that can be reduced drastically in size.< |

Ok no problem. I will take a screenshot if the error crop up again. But what do i need to do for the member_name field? Edit the field size to 75 in the database? Does this help in the error? Or is it a mean to optimise the database?

| Well I reduced the size in the database for space reasons. I do not see any way that the size could cause a locking issue, but I won't say that it couldn't happen.< |

To increase the height of the shoutbox area, look for the following line (appx 107) in "inc_shoutbox.asp".Change that to say:
Change the value (in red) until you get your desired size.< |
