RealChat Software Version 1.7

Integration with existing user profiles database


RealChat supports integration with your existing user profiles database. If you already have an authorization module for your users you can easily use it with RealChat, by simply passing parameters to the applet.

The method

Assume you have your database with user profiles. You need to modify some of your login scripts, so after a successful login the script dynamically generates the applet page. When user JDoe logs in the script should pass the following additional parameters to the applet:

<applet codebase=.....
...
<param name="nick" value="JDoe">
<param name="INFOLABELS" value="Real Name;Age;Sex;Location;e-mail;label6;label7;label8;">
<param name="INFO" value="John Doe;22;M;London;jdoe@somewhere.com;field6;field7;field8;">
...
</applet>

Everybody would see then in the user info window for JDoe the following information:

JDoe
Login time: ---
Idle time: ---
Real name: John Doe
Age: 22
Sex: M
Location: London
e-mail: jdoe@somewhere.com
label6: field6
