<form target="entropychat" action="http://freecpanels.com:2084/">
Nick Name: <input type="text" name="nick" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="channel" value="freecpanels.com">
<input type="submit" value="Enter Chat">
</form>
This is a sample of the code that will be displayed in a users account. There are values within this code that can be changed to customize the look of the form on a user's site.
Nick Name: – A user can change this to display any text
they'd like.
value="freecpanels.com" – This can be changed
to display any channel name wanted. So for instance if a user didn't want to use freecpanels.com, they could change it to something like “My Chat Room” and so on. Anything will and can work here.
Users also have the option of simply using a link to open a java client that is already present on most systems with this option available.
http://freecpanels.com/cgi-sys/mchat.cgi?channel=freecpanels.com
The link simply points to the location of the script, this script can not be modified by the user and shouldn't need to be. Simply replace the “freecpanels.com” with whatever the channel name should be.
Once a user loads this in their browser a java applet will load and automatically connect the user to the servers' chat room. If there is a connection error then the chat server isn't available on that users account. To resolve this issue, simply email the hosting provider and request that the service is
turned on.
Chat Room Commands:
The commands within this java applet are similar to those of IRC. Simply use a back slash “/” and type the command and then hit enter. It's a very simple system to use and understand. Remember that typing “/help” at any time will display a list of commands and their functions.
/MSG “username” “message” – This command is used to “whisper” to another user on the server. Simply type the users name and then the message and hit enter. Remember to remove the quotations before proceeding.
/YELL “message” – This will “yell” or broadcast a message across all channels. Remember that any user logged onto
the server can read these types of messages.
/SQUELCH “username” – This command will basically mute a user from talking. This is useful for users that talk too much or are being bad and removing their privilege to chat.
/JOIN “channel” – This is used to join a different channel on the server.
/TOPIC “new topic” – This command is used by the channel owner to change the name of the channel.
/NICK “new nick name” – This command will change a user's displayed name. Remember that spaces can not be used on this chat system. There is a section at the very top where a user can change their name without using this command.
/LIST – This command is used to list all the available channels on the server.
/LOCK – This command is used to lock a channel. This
can be useful for having a private meeting in a channel, or just blocking anyone else from joining the channel.
/OWN “user name” – This will change the ownership of the channel to whatever is input in the “user name” space.
/KICK “user name” – This command is used to kick a user from a channel.
/INVITE “user name” – This can be used to invite another user to your current channel.
/WHOIS – This command can be used to display all the users in the current channel.
/FINGER – This command is used to show all clients connected to the server.
/VER – This will display the version of the chat server
currently being used by the server.
/ME – This command will display useful information about
you.
/HELP – This command will display all the commands we
just went over and what they are used for.
/TIME – This will display the time of the server and
the user, along with the date.
/QUIT – This command can be used to log out of the server.
