Introduction
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This archive contains a simple ASP chat. Most other chatrooms works using the
Session object. This chat doesn't and thus might be used on larger range of
browsers and -settings.

By using all files in this archive, you are actually able to set up and
customise your own chatroom on your ASP enabled web site.

In order to make the chat work properly, you will have to add a couple of
lines in your "global.asa" file. The lines below are also included in the
downloadable package. You should insert them in the top of your file, i.e.
not in any of the default defined Sub functions.

SCOPE=Application
ID=conquerChatUsers
PROGID="Scripting.Dictionary">


SCOPE=Application
ID=conquerChatRooms
PROGID="Scripting.Dictionary">


The lines above makes it possible to store currently logged in chat users and
rooms. We check this object every time we refresh the chat window page and
kick out inactive users. If you do not have a

To make customisation to the name and/or number of rooms, make sure you
reinitialise the chat. This is done by temporarily enabling a couple of lines
in the 'default.asp' page. The lines are:

conquerChatUsers.RemoveAll
conquerChatRooms.RemoveAll

After having enabled these (by removing the ' sign), request the default.asp
page and the chat will remove all rooms and users and create the new rooms
you might have selected in the constants.inc file.
