Chat Room

I built a AJAX chat room for this blog. AJAX is the best technology for this because it doesn't request high amount of network traffic, and the user can feel no delay.

Perl is used for server side programing.

The first time you log in, you are allocated a random color. You can reset your username and your color by visiting this page.

Chinese character is enabled for this chat room, but only Firefox can work with Chinese character: MSIE is infamous with not following standards, and I really can't solve this problem in IE. both Firefox and IE7.
