Ok chat has been restored as of this morning on IRC.

As of April 5th we have a integrated a chat room in to www.webdt.org that will give you access to instant help

             http://webdt.org/index.php?action=chat

Feel free to join us in chat if you have any questions. This is your fastest option to get help. Please be advised that some of us use chat clients here at webdt.org and we may not use the sites chat room to "stay connected". As a result you may look at members that are online and not see too many. If you were to visit the chatroom however, there could be many people signed in.


Feel free to join us with your chat clients. We are on freenode in #webdt

Thanks for the heads up. Looking in to it today.

Yup Mibbit is broken. Took link down until I can find another chat solution. For the time being feel free to use an irc client like pidgin, xchat, or the likes to talk with us on irc.freenode.net in #webdt

This forum is an smf forum with a style applied. As it was installed from my isp's hosting portal, aka cpanel, it is quite broken.
New post icons being linked in the wrong place was the first clue I had to this. The site is about 11 dynamic pages (mostly in php) that all collect to make one interface.

Last week the chat room became broken. SMF "current" is on version 1.19 and this forum is running on version 1.18. On both 1.18 and 1.19 there are two possibilities for linking your irc chat channel to ones forum. PJRC and Mibbit. PJIRC is java based and I want to avoid it as it ill not run well on a DT. Mibbit used to work until very recently.

Until SMF updates to version 2.0 as current I have no other choices for chat integration. As a result webdt.org will not have a chat link active until version 2.0 is released. Our chat room is still very accessible via an irc client like xchat or pidgin. Simply connect to irc.freenode.net and join #webdt.

My apologies to anyone wanting 800x600 support. Web design used to be fun for me. Today I would rather wrestle with a DT than look at php code for hours on end. Not saying I would stop anyone who wanted to take a crack at making a 800x600 version of the site and a redirector. Just that I have a number of items that take higher priority in front of me right now.

some people. When automobiles came along, so many people refused to give up their horse and carriage... not just those who were so adapted to that life style of hardship, but especially those who lost their jobs for cleaning up the streets.
