Appending content to bar

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I wrote an ajax script to make a generic messenger. Not a serious IM, but just 
wanted something simple. The script should append new messages to a sublist in 
the menu bar. The results are added but not when the list is open. This means 
that in order to see new messages, the user would have to close the box and 
reopen it.

Hi there!

Thanks for bringing that up.
I think I know what you want to achieve with that but I think the solution is 
inappropriate. The menu container are really just intended for menu item 
(lists). What you really want is some sort of a "message container" or a 
"pop-up container" that will hold the result of your ajax call/script (e.g. IM, 
text, pictures or maybe videos). But unfortunately the current release 
(0.0.3-beta) doesn't have that feature, yet.

I'll be working on this (message/pop-up container) along with the 
out-of-the-box social bookmarking feature that will be included on the next 
release (0.0.4). No definite release time yet but I'll be working on it and 
release it as soon as possible. So watch out for that!

But if you're in a rush and can't wait for the next version release then 
checkout: http://www.svetplus.com/

I think they have the solution that you are looking for.

Thank you for using jixedbar.

cheers!

I tried to use the svetplus.com dev file of jixedbar, but it appears not to 
work. Does it need different libraries or is the overall makeup different now?

Yes, svetplus is using the old 0.0.3 development version. I didn't look into 
how svetplus manage to integrate that chat feature. I'll look deeper into that 
soon. But the chat feature or easy integration with other chat services and 
ease of AJAX integration will definitely be on the future release of jixedbar. 
But for now we'll have to settle and make use of what jixedbar's feature 
currently have. I know it's not that much but we'll be adding more feature soon.

And I believe you can think of something that'll work and integrate a simple IM 
on jixedbar just like svetplus, think of the box. I know you can do it =)

Cheers

*** By the way version 0.0.4 are already out, please checkout the Download page 
here at Google Code. Mostly includes IE fixes, especially on IE6 and IE7 issues.
