I've been digging around for a while, looking for a chat module that actually works and looks good. I don't even really need it to be postnuke compatible, I just want first - good performance, second - good looking.
Anyone have a recommendation? I'm currently using a java/mysql chat that looks good, but users complain about getting kicked out all the time

I use the webchat module and like it alot (very simple though). It doeesn't do IRC but I don't need it. I have hacked it to make it easy to change the look via a style sheet.

Anyone have some links? I've tried the Jirc mod, and it says "unregistered - please ask webmaster to register" everytime you type something.
Here is a link to the mod I'm currently using (It's an actual production site)
http://www.jeepz.com/Chat.html
I think it looks good, but I'm worried about reliability

I use the jIRC mod. You have to register it at JPilot for around $50. It's registered to a domain. So if you move it to another domain, it will come back as unregistered again. They will give you a key code to put in the pnuser.php file in the module. The code has a place that says keycode=""; -

Hey Neyland,
Do you mind sending me a link where I can see the registered Postnuke version?
I believe I've tried the standalone version, but I'd like to see how it looks in postnuke.
Also, does it keep chat records?

Go to http://www.jpilot.co…/jirc/register.html to register the applet. Like I said before, you have to register it to a domain. They suggest registering it to a base domain (ie jeepz.com instead of www.jeepz.com) as it will then be registered for any subdomains you may use (ie chat.jeepz.com).
They will email you a long key code.
Once you have the key code, go to the pnuser.php file in the mac_jIRC folder. Look around line 33 for this:
Quote
$output->Text("<param name="\"LicenseKey\"" value="\"\"">\n");</param>
Lets say the key code they gave you was: 123456789-98765
Change the line to read:
Quote
$output->Text("<param name="\"LicenseKey\"" value="\"123456789-98765"\"">\n");</param>
Good luck!
