Introduction

Would you like chat to actually be in your group like this, but you suck at HTML and Java?  Thanks to a joint effort between us at Managers Helping Managers and Chat Central Gateway we have made it very simple for anyone to create a fully functional, natural looking chat page for their MSN group. 

 

Instructions

Prepare your group: 
If your group is publicly viewable, you need do nothing.  If your group is private, you must temporarily make it public to allow the script to get the data it needs from your home page.  After you have run the script, you can make it private again.

Use the generator:
Right Click and open
this link in a new window.  Enter your group's name as it appears and the complete url of your group.  It should begin with http: and end with your group's name with no trailing slash (/).  Select the chat nest that you wish to use.  The default is common chat.  If you have younger members or ones that are offended by occaisional profanity, select Family Safe Chat.  Push the submit button.

Testing:
The script will return a link.  Copy-paste it into a post on your group.  Try it.  It should display the chat in your group.  Check all the links on the left hand Nav bar.  If they do not open the pages as they should, you probably left a trailing slash on the url when you entered it into the utility.  Repeat the above.

Finish:
Once you are satisfied that your page is correct, create a page in your group named Chat.  Place the link to your new page somewhere on it.  You might also want to
add a ticker and call it the wide screen chat.  Save your new page and move it up your Nav bar to where you want it.  We also recomend that you place your new link on your whatsnew page.  It will work even when MSN doesn't.

Updating:
If you add/delete pages or boards in your group that cause your navbar to change, you can update your chat page by simply re running the script.  Your link will not change and there is no need to edit your chat page or the link for your chat page anywhere within your group.

Resource Management:
This service is free to you and your members.  I am footing the bill for the server.  Help me conserve my costs.  If you close your group or decide the service stinks, please let me know so I can remove your page.  I will periodically delete the pages of groups that appear inactive.  If your group is just a little slow, a good way to insure I don't make a boo boo is to promote it on the promo boards at CCG or MHM. 

Compatibility:

Windows
Mac
Linux
Web TV
All Browsers

Go ahead and try it... ENJOY your new Chat Room!!
