need help over this asp problem
-
hi i want to make a chat application in ASP. i want someone to give me a guideline on how to make it. Please someone should help me over it Bye.
Well there are several ways to do it. But it all boils down to what you have available and how many people will be using it. I did some work for a company that needed something quick to allow them to chat in realtime with customers. They were expecting about 10 concurrent users so I used a combination of cookies and application vars. Application vars carried the actual chat and authenticated via the cookie. Basically had people log in and they could see only the conversation to which they were invited. Not a very scalible solution but worked perfectly for them. Fear not my insanity, fear the mind it protects.
