- Check the box to unarchive the files (Windows users should unarchive the files manually, read below)

If chatsetup70.cgi cannot locate the archive, try entering another directory to search from where it says "Search", such as your home directory: Eg: /home/dir/user, /, /var, or another directory

Using Live Web Page Chat:
WebChatter LIVE allows you to chat instantly with visitors that are on your web site.
To enable your site to chat with live visitors, simply place this code on your web pages:
<CENTER><br>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://yourserver.com/cgi-bin/chatlive.cgi?gname=account_name&p=1"><br>
</SCRIPT><br>
</CENTER><br>
Just use your web site URL and replace account_name with the account name that you want associated with this web site. If you place the code on the same page multiple times, you should change the p=1 to something different for each one. Also be sure you have registered this user in the WebChatter login section or you will get an "Invalid Username" box on your web site.
To login to the account, simply point your web browser to:
http://yourserver.com/cgi-bin/chatlive.cgi?area=login
The login screen will show an unlimited number of visitors at one time (you specify). You can also have and unlimited number of operators logged into the same account to have more support for your web site. Just be sure that each user logs in under a different name.
Customizing WebChatter LIVE Graphics:
You can either upload these graphics manually as described below or upload them using the chatadmin.cgi script.
There are four graphics files that WebChatter LIVE uses to distinguish when an operator is available to chat with:
chat_live.gif, chat_live_invalid.gif, chat_live_email.gif, chat_live_join.gif, and they are all
stored in the subdirectory, webchatter_graphics.
All of the below graphic files can have any width size. The height determines what the chatlive.cgi program should do.
chat_live.gif tells the user that there is an operator available to chat with. The height must be 60 pixels
chat_live_invalid.gif displays if an invalid account name is used to call the chatlive.cgi program from a web page. The height must be less than 58 pixels
chat_live_email.gif will be shown if there is no operator available to chat with. The height must be 58 pixels
chat_live_join.gif will scroll across the screen when an operator pages the user on the web site. The height must be 59 pixels
Using Telnet:
If you are on a Windows 95/98 machine, to run telnet, do the following:
- Click Start
- Click Run
- Type telnet and press ENTER
The Telnet screen will then come up. Generally, you connect to the same address you would ftp files to your server.
Once you login with the same username and password as when you ftp files, the commands are very similar to DOS in Windows.
- cd = change directory
- ls = list files in current directory
- rm = remove / delete a file
- mv = mv a file to another location
- mkdir = make directory
If you want to untar the files yourself, simply cd into the directory you uploaded the WebChatter file, and then:
- Type gunzip webchatter.tar.gz and press ENTER (Replace the filename with the exact filename you uploaded to your server
- Type tar xvfp webchatter.tar and press ENTER NOTE: the .gz is no longer on the filename
