Does anybody know a chat tool for Zope?
I know this one: http://www.zope.org/Members/jwashin/ZRTChat. But it is too simple because if users don't speak, you don't know whether they are online or not.
If there are no more tools, could everybody tell me how can I detect, from Zope, which users are online? Is it possible?
Hi, Josef Usernames of logged-in users are sent with each page refresh. You can use that fact to collect the names of those who have refreshed pages recently. Since HTTP is "stateless", this is the only way to know. There are many java applets you could use that do not have this problem. So, if you want to, for normal zope pages, (and probably CMF) you can get username from AUTHENTICATED_USER. In ZRTChat, username is zrtcuser. -- Jim Washington
