Custom SevenForums Gadgets

Ok then...the notification will go..or I'll just put it down on the right side where the gadgeters online appears. I'm using it just to make sure the gadget is doing its updates correctly...If the notification is shown, it means the refreshes work.

Lets try to change the gadgeters color now and decide which is best...I'm going first with bold white. please give me feedback

 

[limneos]

Ok, I've finished with the retouching...

I used a light orange for "gadgeters online", seems ok, but I'm open to any other suggestions.

The fade effect is cool indeed.
Credits go to z3r010 for the excellent idea!

Coming up next, online gadgeters private chat application!

Cheers

[garysgold]

Like the clock.

 

[limneos]

Yes and sorry for some errors you might see, it's cause I'm editing the code live.. please close and re-open the gadget if you encounter a syntax error , I'm seeing it myself and fixing it meanwhile

 

[DocBrown]

Just closed & re-opened. The refreshing rate is working, nice color, We need more Gadgeteers on-line

 

[limneos]

We need more Gadgeteers on-line

Done!

Just kidding, I'll fix it back to the real counter.

 

[Airbot]

Yeah, I keep getting the errors too.

 

[limneos]

Have u gotten any errors the last 3 minutes?

 

[Airbot]

Might have been an old error, I had it like a minute ago and closed the gadget and reopened it, i'll let you know if it happens again.

 

[garysgold]

I've got an error.



Tried a restart didn't work.

 

[limneos]

how long since your last refresh? this error doesn't exist on the page anymore for the last 10 minutes

 

[garysgold]

Happened just a couple minutes ago. Now it's back to normal again.

 

[DocBrown]

Looks like mine is refreshing at 20 sec like you said. No errors yet.

 

[Airbot]

I haven't got the error yet again since I closed it and reopened but I still get this stupid frame when it's sleeping.

[limneos]

I fixed the framing while it's active...for the sleeping mode , to fix it, I'll need to prepare you a new download.

soon

 

[limneos]

Ok ... I believe it's stable for now as it is.

Now, I'm working on an optinal chat system for the connected gadgeters.

The web page code has been written, I will need a few beta testers though... whoever can help, might enter and chat there with me to see how it works. The environment is very simple, no graphics etc...just a plain background.

Note: You will need to make a new user and password, not the ones you use here, cause we can't access the forum's database to use these credentials. Use something simple, it's for testing. e.g. user john, pass 1234

 

[limneos]

ok I see there's a couple of you who signed up to the chat.

First off, when you open the page click on the compatibility mode icon , on IE8 , on the right of the address bar. I'm having some compatibility issues with my javascript.

After you've done this, start typing messages to the users, either they're online or offline. They should get them when they log on.
