Just to inform the community, the ICQ messaging feature which is part of the Snitz Forums is currently not working. If you have this feature turned on in your forum, and your users try to message another user using this feature, they will get the following error:

Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /scripts/WWPMsg.dll.

This is a problem on ICQ's end and nothing we can do about it at the moment. The ICQ messaging also does not work at ICQ's website. I have contacted ICQ support about this along with posting help requests at thier various ICQ groups. Still waiting for a response.
So during the meantime, forum administrators might want to disable this feature on thier forum for the time being.<

I've turned it off here.<

Yes, I have noticed that there were problems about 2 months ago, but it looked like they were fixed (i've rceived ICQ messages until about 20 days ago).
Shame on them (isn't it an honour to be inegrated into Snitz? - we had enough problems with the online/offline status ).<

Found the solution to this. ICQ has increased security when using thier web to icq messaging feature, to prevent spam bots from automatically sending icq messages to users.
Because of this change, the ICQ form method in the pop_messengers.asp file, needs to be changed from POST to GET.
Line 90, pop_messengers.asp file, change from this:to this:<

Once again, ICQ has changed the way you send ICQ pages from websites, thus breaking everybodies script, even their own.
I was able to write up a message and send it and ICQ send it was sent, but I never received it. I tried sending a page from my Unified Messaging Center on ICQ, and I received the message instantly. So there is no error message. The user just doesn't receive the page.
In pop_messengers.asp file, line 90, you will find this (if you made the changes above):Change it to this:The url for the form action has changed plus the method. I have tested it with my forum and it works.<

Thanks for the update! <

Another update to this ever changing ICQ feature.
You can now directly load the form on ICQ website that will allow you to send an ICQ message to a member. The url is as follows:http://www.icq.com/people/webmsg.php?to=ICQNUMBER&from=NAME&fromemail=EMAIL
Only the ICQNUMBER is required. The other options are optional, but can be filled in if you would like.
All that is needed is that you replace the call to pop_messenger.asp on topic.asp and members.asp and pop_profile.asp and enter the url to icq's page. This will load the page in the popup window.<

Davio hi ess: is this ?


" <form action=""http://www.icq.com/people/webmsg.php?to=ME NUMBER &from=Giumer &fromemail=gi@gi.it ""method=""post"">"&vbNewLine & _<

Anyone notice a trend? When ICQ was owned & controlled by Mirabilis (the Israeli group who created it), everything worked well and everyone was thrilled with it. AOL bought it. Nothing works and it's full of advertising, adware, security holes, etc.<
