I think you have a problem with your system Iain - I don't know why you are having problems, but you could try changing the resolution of your screen as a first step.

From the Help Files:

The Chat is not working!


Question: What browsers are supported by this chat?
Answer: This chat works with Netscape 4.x and higher as well as with Internet Explorer 5.x and higher. IE 4.x should also work but has not been tested yet.

Question: My browser is listed above, but when I login I can only see an empty page with the logo above. Neither the text box nor the userlist appears in the window. How come?
Answer: Most likely this is because your browser has JavaScript deactivated. You can activate JavaScript as follows:
Internet Explorer: Tools / Internet Options, click there on the security tab and then on the Custom Level button, then in the following dialog Scripting - Active Scripting - Enable
Netscape: Edit / Preferences / Advanced / Enable JavaScript.

Question: My browser is listed above, but when I try to login I only see a white (Netscape: gray) rectangle.
Answer: Most likely this is caused by a misconfiguration of the proxy settings. Deactivating proxies in the browser settings could help:
Internet Explorer: Tools / Internet Options, click there on the connections tab and then on LAN Settings. Uncheck all options there.
Netscape: Edit / Preferences / Advanced / Proxies / Direct connection to the Internet.

Question: I am having problems with the chat using the AOL software.
Answer: The default AOL proxy servers do not allow the normal chat mode. Try using an external browser, such as MS Internet Explorer or Netscape, and deactivate the proxies (instructions see above). If this does not work, select the "Safe mode" checkbox when you log in.

Question: While I was chatting suddenly no new messages appeared, not even my own ones. When I pressed logout, nothing changed. What happened here?
Answer: For this chat to function there has to be a live connection to the server. If you hit the ESCape key or click the STOP button the browser stops communicating with the server. Try clicking the refresh/reload button.

Question: I try to login with my Internet Explorer but I see only a white window.
Answer: Are you already in the chat with another browser window? Some restrictions of Internet Explorer do not allow chatting with two browser windows at the same time.
