Chat Interface: RTB Modification? Chat Control? HTML Rendering? [modified]
-
Hi (: Im currently developing an application in C# that requires chat/support discussion features. I have all of the back-end networking sorted out, But im stuck when it comes to the UI. . . I cant find a nice and efficient method for displaying the chat session/logs to the users. Ive tried using just a textbox.. but it looks primitive, Ive tried using Chat Controls i have found online, but they wouldn't work. . . and i have tried using HTML rendering controls from here on CP, but when the message stack builds up the rendering slows the whole UI. Could someone, maybe who has tackled a similar situation, offer some advice as to how i could go about both professionally and efficiently displaying chat sessions in my UI? Thanks for your time in reading, Andy.
