Hi, i'm wanting to know how to just get it to show my Users in Channel. Like whats the link for it. I don't want the whole webbot app to show on my main page of my site. Just the users in channel part.

Hi.  Here is the list of user defined URLs:

http://www.valhallalegends.com/spht/webbot/?id=help#UserURL

For Channel name and user count:
http://www.valhallalegends.com/skywing/isapi/BinaryChatISAPI.dll?channelnameex=(registration name)

Replace (registration name) with your WebChannel accout name.

At the moment, there is no way to show just the user count, as far as I know.

ok you know when you click on the link in available channels page. and it brings up your deal thats showing your channel and stuff. I just want to show the Channel name and users on my main page. Then on another page i gonna make, i want it to show everything like it does when you click on the link on the available channels page.

You could try using an IFRAME.  Search Google, or look at how other web sites incorporate their channel list.

Hey Spht. This is what i got so far, check it out here on the right side of site. http://www.thealiasnetworks.net/

How do i get that section to refresh like it does on the page at the link it shows our full deal at? Cause to get the channel list there to refresh i have to reload the page. I'm using the IFRAME, i really liked it. Thanks for telling me about those.

Looks good.

Simply add this in the <head> section of the frame page:

<META http-equiv=Refresh content="10">

That will refresh every 10 seconds.

aight thanks, btw i don't have a head section but will that work? i'm using a content management system. so that is accually in a block, but it does accept html coding so it should work. thanks.

Ok i got it to refresh and removed borders and got the channel name and user count in there too. Now one other question i got is.

Is there anyway to just get it so that only that block refreshes. Cause right now when it refreshed it appears to be reloading the whole page, hard to tell. Could you take a look at the page, thanks.

Thanks again Spht you've been a great deal of help and i fully appreciate it.

Your CMS is not using a frame, it's placing all that data right into one page, which will make the whole page refresh.
May 20, 2006, 3:34 PM
WarTanks
Yes i know my CMS isn't using a frame. The Block i put that info in though is using an IFRAME.

Well I hate to break it to you, but it's not in an iframe.
May 20, 2006, 7:24 PM
WarTanks
why do u say that? huh??? u wanna see the code i have in there here i'll post it to you:

<head><META http-equiv=Refresh content="60"></head><a href="http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/webbot/webchannel.asp?BotName=Security&ChannelName=Clan%20DG">Live Feed</a>
<iframe frameborder="0" src="http://www.valhallalegends.com/skywing/isapi/BinaryChatISAPI.dll?channelnameex=security" width="80%" height="46"
style="height:1.8em"
marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" align="center">
</iframe>
<iframe frameborder="0" src="http://www.valhallalegends.com/skywing/isapi/BinaryChatISAPI.dll?channellistex=security" width="140%" height="200"
style="height:1.8em"
marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
</iframe>

May 21, 2006, 12:43 AM
WarTanks
Ok sorry for seeming like an @$$. How do i get it so it just freashes the IFRAME? I tried putting it in the iframe itself but that just whites out the iframe.

After looking at your web site, I'm surprised it even renders because the IFRAME doesn't even look valid.

I suggest making a basic IFRAME (you only really need to define the size) that uses:
http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/webbot/channel.asp?BotName=(registration name)

channel.asp does the channel refreshing, so you don't need to worry about it.

For example:
<iframe src="http://botdev.valhallalegends.com/webbot/channel.asp?BotName=(registration name)" width="200" height="700" frameborder="0" />

(replace (registration name) with your registration name)

That's all you need.
