hey scott
how did you get the chat thing on your website?
I want to make one and put it on my website.

i'm using strictly ruby on rails. for the forum/chat interface I'm using some open source code called eldorado.

check out http://github.com/trevorturk/el-dorado/tree/master

and the author's forum: http://eldoradoapp.com/

Thanks scott.

I know applefruit, and he is making a forum with only a chat function, and I can chat to him on the internet during time when we should not be talking!!!

EDIT: You copied the website El Dorado!!! You copy cat!!! but it is quite clever of you... XD To be honest, I dont really know what you two are talking about.
And it is quite funny that the first 5 posts of applefruit on a forum about WLO are on programming!!!

is it in html code or php etc, or is it something else embedded in the html?

why is http://eldoradoapp.com/ exactly the same structure as your website?

it's open source. i figured why rewrite the whole framework if it already exists. same for php, why write your own forum if you can just use phpbb.

i have made lots of updates though and written everything else on the site...items, compounds, manufactures, monsters, locations, tools, different security groups...etc.

i don't use php. ruby on rails is it's own programming language. the code is actually written in ruby with the rails framework for web programming.

check out http://www.rubyonrails.org/screencasts and watch the first screencast to see how cool it is.

there is also lots of videos at http://railscasts.com/ if you are interested in learning ruby on rails.

it's much more fun to program with then php or perl.

how i can make my own forum?

google for phpbb if are using php or download eldoardo if you want to try using ruby on rails. you will of course though need a ruby server installed though.
