Community Building with ChatSpace Server Manual

Info

Connecting to the Chat Site 0.User’s Guide To begin chatting, you must connect to a chat site. In most cases, your Administrator has configured added a link to the ChatSpace Community on a company or main web page. To access your ChatSpace Community: Click on the designated link. A ChatSpace Categories page is displayed. If the system does not remember your login, you are logged in as a Guest. See Signing On on page 119 for more information. Internet Explorer is recommended for accessing your ChatSpace community. Connection Trouble If you have trouble connecting to a chat site, several causes are possible. These causes can be firewalls/proxies, poor Internet connections or a problem in your Java environment. 117
Firewalls/Proxies Firewalls and proxies are systems set up to protect your computer from unwanted Internet intruders. Sometimes a firewall or proxy can prevent access. While ChatSpace technology normally works perfectly well through firewalls and proxies, the ChatSpace site that you are trying to access must be set up to use firewall friendly ports, such as port 80. If you are trying to access a site which is being blocked by your firewall, you should contact the owner of the chat site and ask if firewall friendly ports are being used. Poor Internet Connections Just as there are bad phone connections and noisy phone lines, there can be bad Internet connections. These can cause your downloads and chats to go slowly. They can also cause you to not be able to connect or to disconnect frequently. If you are having connection problems or slow downloads, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Java Problems The Java support on your computer can sometimes stop working properly. This can be due to a number of reasons. Often the quickest way to resolve this is to download and install the very latest web browser software (Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator), and the latest Java Virtual Machine, which is the program that runs Java software. Microsoft Internet Explorer can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/ windows/ie. Microsoft’s latest Java Virtual Machine can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/java. (http://www.info.apple.com/support/ downloads.html for Macintosh users). Alternate Interfaces In addition to the normal ChatSpace Java Client interface, ChatSpace provides several alternate forms of access. 3X Browser Java Client The 3X Browser Java Client is an older interface which can run on systems running older web browser software. This Java client has fewer features than the standard Java Client interface, but provides a client option if you use an old web browser. If the standard Java Client fails to load on your system, ChatSpace automatically attempts to load this interface. HTML Client Several flavors of HTML Client are available for your use. These clients range from a somewhat complex interface using both frames and JavaScript, 118
