I have replaced my existing shoutbox with a Live Java Chat.

Here's how I did it if anyone is interested.

1) Go to http://www.addonchat.com and create an account.
2) You will receive an email, and be able to access your personal control panel.
3) Once in your control panel, there is a link for "Chat Room Link Code"
4) Myself, I used the Embedded Code

<applet>
<param>
<a>Java Chat Software</a>
</applet>

5) I have edited my code to the following:

<applet>
<param>
<a>Java Chat Software</a>
</applet>

6) Now to insert it in to replace the existing shoutbox

Open: forum/templates/your template/index_body.tpl

Find:

<iframe></iframe>

Replace with above modified code:

<applet>
<param>
<a>Java Chat Software</a>
</applet>

7) Exit and save. Remember to edit all your templates you are using.
8) Now users just enter a nickname and enter the room.

NOTE: When you refresh your page, you will have to login again.

If anyone understanding coding, knows how to modify this so it will automatically use the users forum id, please provide us with your idea how.

Greatly appreciated.

To view the forum area, you have to register, but don't bother.
It should at least allow you to view the chat area in the shoutbox location.
