Well i looked for an "idiots guide to installing your chat box" and couldn't find one.. Instead i keep getting a forum with the entire embed code wrote out and displayed instead of the chat box.
I tried creating a catagory named chat with a forum and the html code in the description as the xat site advised with the same results.. Either i'm a complete idiot (probly the case) or I seem to be missing something here.. Anyone know what i need to do to install the chat box to the forum i've begun to create. :?:
Hi, this is a short instruction on how to install external chat box.

I'm a code idiot LOL but this is my first time attempting to learn this and i'd appreciate any and all help. If it helps the embedable code for the chatbox is

Well... I copy and pasted the "code" you rewrote for me, yet it still does not show up.. At this point I feel as though I'm a lost cause, It accepts the bbcode but doesn't display a chatbox anywhere..

the ajax is wat im talking about sir.by the way how can i use xatchatbox like my ajax?

It is because the shoutbox can display a maximum of 5 messages per page.
