Note:
This is not a real MyBB plugin, rather a standalone web chat software which integrates nicely with MyBB.
Have a look at the provided readme for installation instructions.
You don't have to change anything on your MyBB forum for installation, not even one file has to be edited.


Important:
As the time and effort spent to support the AJAX Chat project has increased my support here on this topic will discontinue.
I will continue to answer support requests on the Official SourceForge project site.
Feel free to use this topic for user-to-user support.

Downloading now, I'll be checking it out soon.

If you like it, maybe you'll want to contribute an arabic translation.

I would love to do
but as you may know
we can't control charsets in js fils
so the arabic lang or any spicial charsets langs will displayed unreadable

I can assure you - you can control charsets in JavaScript files.

All the files of AJAX Chat are UTF-8 encoded, so Non-ASCII-Characters are not a problem.
The javascript language files are included the following way:

<script src="js/chat.js" type="text/javascript" charset="UTF-8"></script>

So even if the content encoding is not UTF-8, e.g. ISO-8859-1, the JavaScript content is included as UTF-8.
On server side, everything is stored as UTF-8 as well.
The database tables charset and collation is set to UTF-8.
If content is sent in another encoding, it is converted to UTF-8.
If the data sources, like user names or channel names are not UTf-8, they are converted to UTF-8 as well.
If the content encoding set for AJAX Chat is not UTF-8, the language specific strings are converted to the desired encoding before output and all non-displayable characters in that encoding are displayed as HTML entities.

You see, I put a lot of effort and time into internationalization.

If you are still in doubt, set your browsers preferred language e.g. to german, greek, finnish, hebrew, russian, dutch, italian or spanish (which are already included in AJAX Chat), delete the AJAX Chat cookies (storing your language preferences) and reload the demo chat.

Very nice plugin. I'm very pleased on your creation

I just reduced the requirements on passwords for signups to my forum.
So it would be nice if you could upload it there.
Before you do so, please read the requirements for the translation files.
All files have to be UTF-8 encoded - the files in the arabic language pack I downloaded here were not UTF-8 encoded. :|

As a translator, you'll get listed in the localization files as @author, and as translator on the AJAX Chat project page.
I would use your username here (pepotiger), but if you want, I could as well use your homepage url as name, or your real name.
