I'd like to install a chatroom on my site. Anyone know any good chat rooms to install that are either cheap or free?

I already tried installing the chatroom that comes thru php in cpanel, but I feel that its not good enough. I found a really nice chatroom to install, but its a bit pricey. It's over at http://www.123flashchat.com/demo.html I was hoping someone would know a chatroom that was either like that 123 flash chat only cheaper.

Any other chats that you guys recommend that I could install?

This is one of the best I've found and the support is good.

On the vBulletin fan site we published an article: [Guide] Adding a Chat Section to your Site (http://www.vbulletin-fans.com/showthread.php?t=5812)

That might be of some use to you.

Thanks TTG and Floris. Actually I did have an IRC chat up and running before, but I forgot what script I used. It was hosted remotely and all I had to do was create my account on the remote server and then paste my script onto my HTML on my server. People connected to it via my site using java. Do you guys know any that are like this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That is exactly what we use on the vbulletin fan site. Simple java interface to a vb powered page.

Hey Floris, I've installed the chat thing using the link you gave me, but I don't see the vBXirc Settings. I don't know what's wrong. I followed the steps exactly.

Floris! Ok I got a quick question, how do you make other people administrators in the room? I want to give someone else an administrator position over the chat room. How do I go about doing that using the chat you gave me?
