havChat 3.0x Chat Applet Demo:

Full Featured TextArea Display


This demo uses the Full Featured TextArea Display applet. The TextArea Display applets are a bit smaller (file size - thus faster load time) and require a bit less client system resource than do their Multi-color counterparts. The TextArea Display applets also have the advantage of allowing text in the display area to be selected and copied. They have the (possible) disadvantage of allowing only one text color in the chat display (color can vary but all text in the display will be one color).

As does it's Full Featured Multi Color Display counterpart, this applet includes Whiteboard Support as well as all admin and moderator functions.

To see the whiteboard you can log into this chat applet demo and enter the command..."/pic new tree2.jpg" (without the quotes). Also, the chat applet's HELP button provides additional info on the %pic command and lists several other pictures avaliable in the demo.

You can use tha applet parameters to provide various presentation changes - for example...

  • CLICK HERE to see the user list on the RIGHT side of the applet
  • CLICK HERE to see the user list on the LEFT side of the applet


havChat is a fully JavaTM chat server with multiple chat applets. The server can handle multiple chat rooms, supports password protected users, private chat groups within an otherwise public room, various admin functions etc. Special features include a shared whiteboard which can be initialized with any existing graphic and "virtual tours."

While you won't be able to actually see or join in the chat without java enabled, here's a little description FYI. havChat is a JavaTM based multiuser chat. Both the client and server parts are written in JavaTM. The client's chat features include various commands for configuring and floating the display as well as setting up private and ignore groups within a room. The server support multiple rooms, optional assigned user id/passwords, open and closed rooms, public and private (password reuired) rooms and other typical admin functions.

In addition to normal chatting, the client supports a shared whiteboard feature. Chatters can all see and modify a popup picture. A Paintbrush-like set of drawing tools are available for use on the whiteboard. Pictures must originate from the server from which the client is loaded (in order to keep a disruptive chatter from sending questionable material to other chatters. Also - the whiteboard supports printing and saving of pictures - though tese features currently work for only netscape users.

havChat 3.0x Chat Demo Download:

You are welcome to  grab a copy of the havChat Demo Download  and give it a whirl on your server. The current download is fresh as of Mon, Dec 14, 2009 at 03:02 CST.

You will need only a 1.1 or later JVM (Java Virtual Machine) on the server and you can be up and running in minutes. The README in the demo's distribution will get you going with the demo -- the licensed product has more formal documentation.

The demo has all features enabled but is restricted to 3 rooms, 5 concurrent chatters per room and will run for @ 30 days or 40 server starts.


havChat 3.0x Chat Applet Online Demos:

You are invited to try some online demos of the havChat applets below. These will all take you to our demo room which is usually monitored by a staffer to answer any questions you might have. The demos linked from this page will automatically select either the .jar or .cab chat applet files based on the browser being used.

  • 3.0 Full Featured Applet - The full featured applet includes support for the Whiteboard - To see the whiteboard, log into the Full Featured chat demo and enter the command..."/pic new tree2.jpg" (without the quotes). The chat applet's HELP button provides additional info on the %pic command and lists several other pictures avaliable in the demo.

    Though most of these demos provide a "FLOAT" button on the applets, you can also try a little javascript popup windowed presentation HERE -- and you can try the applet which uses the TextArea display as well.

  • 3.0 "Lite" Applet - The "Lite" applet is the same as the Full Featured applet but without the whiteboard support. The Lite chat applets also do not include Admin, Moderator or Local logging functions -- but they can be used by Guest Speakers, transient speakers and others in a moderated room. You can also try a little javascript popup windowed presentation HERE -- and you can try the applet which uses the TextArea display as well.

  • Alternate Presentations: The remaining demos use one of the main havChat applets but with the presentation altered in some way using various applet parameters.

    • 3.0 Call Center Demo
      - The Call Center demo applet represents what you might present to the general public in a call center or customer support chat use - and is provided as a demonstration of hiding certain applet fields (in this case, the USER list is hidden).

    • 3.0 "Invisible" Applet - is provided to demonstrate how one could use the auto-float feature to have a page (or frame) which has an alternate applet spec which cause the applet to pop open in a floated state. This demo auto-floats the applet on page load, but other control mechanisms (like auto-float on login) are also available.

    • 3.0 "Tiny Applet" - provides a (probably ridiculously) small applet presentation simply as a demo of how small the applet can be when in a page.
