How To Create An Application That Combines A Website To A Chat Program
May 4, 2010
So I am trying to create and application that combines a website to a chat program.
Essentially what I want is this
Users to be able to go to the website and look at data
if they want to add data they can do that on the website
based on this data, a message pops up on the appropriate agents PC
the agent can then forward the request or accept the request and type in a message/data in that same pop up window and send it to the website which would update the website.
I have too many options to choose from and I am very confused.I believe for the agent side(chat) WCF would be good, but not sure about the website side.Should i use dynamic data webpage orwcf data services?
I was looking for a chat program, and I found it here in Code Project,Build a Web based Chat using ASP.NET Ajax (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/ajax/aspnetchat.aspx)The code is working perfectly,except 2 issues,can anybody tell me how can I overcome these issues?1-how can I get for example the last 2 hours chat from the database, when a new user enters to the chat room? I tried the getlastmessage stored procedure, but because of the refresh, it keeps showing the messages over and over. any solutions?2-In firefox after I hit the enter on keyboard I see two messages instead of one. sometimes it happens in IE too.
I'm developing chat application on asp.net mvc, in my app, user can create room and invite other join to chat, but don't need to save chat room information.So, I designed to save all chat message ,room information and user info in Session and clear it when owner close the room.I'm worry about stressing server when I save alot of data (include room info, user info, and message) in Session if there are up to 5000 rooms created and alot of messages transfered in that room.Is my solution good enough ? is it ok to save in Session ?
I am working on a search engine application and was hoping there was a way to take multiple fields from the database and combine the values (separated by spaces) into a single virtual field, without having to actually add it to the database
Let's say I have 2 fields, FirstName and LastName - can I take these 2 fields and combine them into a Name field where Name = FirstName + " " + LastName
What I'm going to be attempting has a lot more to it than that, but if I can get an example on how to achieve that, I can apply that same principle on a larger scale
ways of doing this with AND/OR, I want to combine multiple fields into a single field
I have a requirement for building an instant messenger application for the selected user.
I have googled for the solution but without any sucess.My requirement is once a user initiates a chat with another user,the another user needs to get a popup of the chat window,where the two users can start chatting.

I've been searching an online chat software , but they charge a lot on monthly/yearly bases, so i guess it's better to create your own
But before doing that what are the things/problems that i might face according to you to accomplish this feature ?
Do i need separate chat server ? and i need features like " auto-message like " An operator will be with you shortly" how to accomplish these things ?
Do i need any database support to for using this feature ?
