Hi guys...it's been QUITE a while.

I am trying to create an IM client that can be implemented into a webbrowser, ie Meebo. This client is bascially going to be on a much smaller scale; it is actually going to be used as part of a project for school. I have decided to use AJAX, which means I will be writing a lot of javascript and using the Jabber server, as well as my own server for hosting. I know that I have to get the Jabber communication and socket layer communication set up, but I have no idea how to even begin going about this. I will be using HTML/CSS/PHP for the GUI and coding the client in JavaScript. Does any one out there have any suggestions? I know that CB is home of some of the most talented peeps on the web...I just haven't been able to be on here a lot now that college has started. I would greatly appreciate any pointers! thumbsup.gif

Well, yeah, Jabber is (basically) synonymous with XMPP. But you'll still need software to process the XML on the server side, and that may be hard to do with JavaScript.
