Java/Chat issue

Thanks for any assistance.

Jean I posted a couple different ways you can try to use to get into chat , above. Try those and see what happens.

That's actually our plan. Both Medusa and I have reached a level of fed-up-ness with the chat software and the lack of support from the vendor and are looking at alternatives. One of my key requirements is that it is tablet agnostic (ideally using HTML 5 rather than Flash or java).

Justbeingme: I do appreciate the help. However, as I stated in the first post of the thread, I ONLY wanted postings from members where they were having issues. As an FYI: Because tablets (e.g., iPhones, iPads, Androids, etc.) don't support java at all, none of the suggestions you put forward would work.

I look forward to the adoption of chat software that is both java & flash free. Thanks for your response.

I am subscribing to this thread hoping to be updated on the issues faced by us iPad/iPhone users. I use my iPad and iPhone almost exclusively anymore. Which I guess means no chat for now? Anyway, it doesn't work for me. Thanks for looking into it!
