I am still busy tweaking things around. Nothing major though, just colours, sizes, spacing, etc…
The big ones missing are the photo gallery which I want to have before going to Damascus and the all new exploration/work section where I plan to document.. well… guess what :)

Ist tatsächlich brilliant. Hoffentlich gibt’s das bald für Europa. Dann weiß ich endlich, was die Nachbarn so zum Frühstück auf’s Brot schmieren.

It’s really brilliant. I hope it will be avaliable for Europe soon. Then I’m finally going to know what my neighbours are having for breakfast.

Comment by Bea on 2005 04 20

My code might not live up to any standards and commenting is something I have only learned recently :) ***—as far as i’m concerned, there shouldn’t be any standards; not even rules or even boundaries.

as a designer who successfully made an AJAX application, i believe you’ve just proven that we should all look at the web through a new perspective: borderless!

do visit my website at http://saljubiru.kroni.biz next month as i try to understand the magic behind AJAX for a while - starting with your script.

a million thanks to you

Comment by fariz on 2005 03 21

Well, it works.

A reminder for everyone, since explicit instructions aren’t given:

(1) db.php needs to be setup with your mysql information.

(2) run initdb.php before testing the chat.

Thanks for letting us play with this.  Let’s see what we can do :)

Comment by Michael Greene on 2005 03 22

This WILL come in handy ;)

Comment by phroggar on 2005 03 22

congratulations! this is a good example

Comment by Ignacio on 2005 04 07

Hello. Great script! I love it.

Is a timestamp for each entry possible? It helps a lot to know the time that each post was made.

Thanks a lot!

Comment by qwertyuiop on 2005 04 10

Hello

This is a very nice script i find !

If you use like me a server with the registar_global = Off, you should change 2 var. The first in the page getchatdata.php change :

if (!$lastID) {

$lastID = 0;

}

to

if (!$_GET[lastID]) {

$lastID = 0;

}

Then, in page sendchatdata.php, change this :

$name = $n;

$text = $c;

To :

$name = $_POST[n];

$text = $_POST[c];

Good luck ;)

Comment by Sky on 2005 04 13

I just spent an hour fitting the basic idea of your beautiful Chat into my wordpress blog. You can check it out at http://blog.jalenack.com ...The live shoutbox. Cool, and thanks again alexander!

Comment by jalenack on 2005 07 27

Hello, I have developed an AJAX chat program partly inspired by this one here. You can find the code and installation instructions at:
http://www.cyberhostel.com/ajaxchat.html

Check it out and AJAX hard.

Comment by julian on 2005 07 27

do you reckon it could be modified to integrate with lussumo’s new open-source forum… (http://getvanilla.com/)

Comment by 3stripe on 2005 07 27

Thanks for the tip for those who have Register Globals off. Just to clarify, for getchatdata.php, there are actually TWO variables that need to be changed.

Variable 1:
if (!$lastID) {
$lastID = 0;
}
to
if (!$_GET[lastID]) {
$lastID = 0;
}

Variable 2:
getData($lastID);
to
getDate($_GET[lastID]);

-------------------------------
However, instead of changing both you could leave each the way they are, and simply put the following just after the header()s.

$lastID = $_GET[lastID];

Hope that helps anybody else who had some difficulty with register_globals off.

Comment by Scott Motte on 2005 07 27

I made, as you asked, so that it goes to the bottom also focus is always rerecieved to the message field so you can just keep typing.

Comment by fireshark on 2005 08 25

Hi,

I am interested in turning this demo into a full chat program. Has anyone managed to get the text to add to the bottom of the page?

Comment by Taval on 2005 09 21

To get the text on the bottom,edit scripts.js and change this line:
insertO.insertBefore(oLi, insertO.firstChild);
to this:
insertO.appendChild(oLi);

Comment by codewolf on 2005 10 15

Yeah, I figured that out. I made some other changes as well so it looked more like a chat program.

Comment by Taval on 2005 10 15

you might want to consider adding:

document.chatForm.chatbarText.focus();

at the end of the checkStatus function.

This will re-focus to the msg input after hitting submit/return. This way you can type, hit return, type, hit return, etc. without having to put cursor back to input box.

Comment by peter on 2005 10 25

ok, maybe not the best place to add the .focus line; since i think it constantly returns focus to msg box - which prevents you from EVER moving cursor out of the box.

perhaps at end of sendComment function would make more sense.

Comment by peter on 2005 10 25

i am getting a bug some times when i type something it comes up 3 4 times its hare but happens is it a bug or did i miss anything ?

Comment by Prix on 2005 11 03

Hi Prix. I have not heard this before so it is not a known bug (known to me that is). Has anybody else encountered this or even solved it?

Comment by alex on 2005 11 04

minor “bug” that i just noticed… the routine “buffers” CR’s.

in other words if you accidentally hit CR (submit) a few times; then the next msg’s that you type will get sucked in 1 character at a time.

Not sure if this is an issue with this script or with browsers - need to test a bit more.

Comment by peter on 2005 11 29

not minor it happens a lot i was thinking about that too the enter thing but i was studing about PhP live and they seems to use this way to but there is no problem at it…

Comment by Prix on 2005 11 29

Nice Application.
I am very intresed in ajax programming.
If i want to start an application in ajax
can you suggest me how can proceed step
by step.

Comment by Santhosh Kumar T on 2005 12 02

I’ve created a chat application using Ajax. It don’t require a server to be used and can be integrated in any simple web page.

Check it out at: http://www.neochats.com

Tell me how useful you find it.

Julien

Comment by julien on 2005 12 03

I can confirm that there is a bug when you hit enter multiple times before entering text.  It then spits out each character as you type it into the output.  If anyone has found a way to fix this please let everyone know!

thanks,
jeff

Comment by Jeff on 2005 12 03

hi
first of all, thx alex for the great script.
i noticed the bug mentioned by jeff.

try this:
in [scripts.js ->function sendComment]
instead of:
} else {
setTimeout(’sendComment();’,1000);
}
write this:
} else if (currentChatText != ‘’) {
setTimeout(’sendComment();’,1000);
}

WHY?
in [scripts.js ->function sendComment] there is an if clause.
if you have a message (currentChatText != ‘’)
&&
(httpSendChat.readyState == 4 || httpSendChat.readyState == 0)
wich means, i think, that it is possible to send the message, then the scripts sends it -> httpSendChat.open ... .
but, if one of the condition [or both] are false, then the script executes the else part.
I think that nothing should be executed if
currentChatText == ‘’ [you have nothing to send.]

the else part is important, because if you have a message and it is not possible to send it now, then the function calls itself after a second [tries to send the message again].

Hope the explanation was clear and this solves the bug.
Alex, thx again

Comment by mihai on 2005 12 07

Mihai’s fix worked for me.  Thanks for looking into that.

Jeff

Comment by Jeff on 2005 12 07

Thanks Mihai!
I was not aware of this bug but I am glad you found a solution already. I am getting a lot of support requests regarding the chat and can simply not always handle it in a timely manner. It is good to see people helping each other out. And I am still thrilled to see how it inspires so many.
Thank you very much!

Comment by alex on 2005 12 07

How would you go about displaying the timestamp?  I see that it is included in the database but i’m not sure how to display it in the chat output.

Also, how do you implement the fading technique that a lot of other ajax chats are using?  The joomla ajax shoutbox does this and it’s pretty cool.

Thanks,
Jeff

Comment by Jeff on 2005 12 07

I am having trouble with lastID variable i am not recieving proper value in it it is giving me -1 while i need latest inserted id value in db. can anybody help me

Comment by mustafa on 2005 12 13

folded in a timestamp into the display.

ian rotea (http://www.rotea.com) started work on the timestamp. i helped finish it.

Comment by jp on 2005 12 13

Hi all, great AJAX program! I had a question… in my CSS set the overflow to “scroll” which scrolls the chat up and down. Then, I followed the instructions on here on how to make the text begin from the bottom instead of the top. However, my scroll bar will not follow the text. In other words, I have to manually bring the scroll bar down to read any new chats. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks!
-Andy

Comment by Andy Hodges on 2005 12 19

Ok, I think I figured out how to keep the scroll at the bottom when new text arrives.

If I am doing this wrong, please tell me. Thanks!

Under the “InsertNewContent” function, I added the following as the last code…

thisscroll = document.getElementById("chatoutput");
thisscroll.scrollTop = thisscroll.scrollHeight;

That seems to work.

-Andy

Comment by Andy Hodges on 2005 12 19

One other problem with the scroll, this might overload their buffer sooner or later, won’t it? Or is there a flush?

-Andy

Comment by Andy Hodges on 2005 12 19

i have a question, would anybody know how to tie this into an existing database, so that there is no guest basically, and it just displays the logged in user’s name?

thanks, :)

Comment by sean on 2005 12 19

I am doing something similar Sean. For example, I run a vBulletin site that already has users. You can connect to the existing database by modifying the PHP files, but that would be a lot of work. For me, I am looking for the “cookie” that’s stored in vBulletin. If the cookie exists, then I’m displaying their name (from stored cookie) in the “Your Name” box.

-Andy

Comment by Andy Hodges on 2005 12 19

If you take a look at Joomla (http://www.joomla.org), they have an Ajax chat module that works great.  It uses the user database from Joomla and has the option to only let registered Joomla users to chat.  You might want to take a look at the module and see how it interacts with Joomla.

The actual Ajax chat is found here: http://www.arabic-lounge.com/

The module for Joomla is found here:
http://developer.joomla.org/sf/projects/smo_ajax_shoutbox

Jeff

Comment by Jeff on 2005 12 19

thanks for the info i appreciate it, another question though, ummmm

for some reason, the chat won’t start on my server, i ran the initDB.php file, but, its just like its not communicating with the db for some reason, but, i’m getting no errors, any suggestions or ideas???

thanks,
sean

Comment by sean on 2005 12 21

this is very intresting idea

Comment by denia on 2006 01 05

Looks good. Will use the basic idea as part of a live forum.
I thought why call it chat when I can call it a forum with features.

I’ll have to change it to ASP.NET first lol

Comment by asif on 2006 05 21

Hi guys,

I just want to let you know that I just created a new tutorial that walks you through the steps of creating an ASP.NET Chat application using AJAX. It doesn’t just show you how to use AJAX in a chat app but also how to make an ASP.NET control AJAX-enabled. In this example, I make a DataGrid turn into a DataGrid AJAX enabled.
To launch the tutorial, go to http://www.KYNOU.com, click on the “Tutorial Index” link, click on the AJAX node in the tree and click on the “Select” button next to the tutorial called “Ajax enabled DataGrid - Chat Application Example”.
Keep in mind that this site is a search engine, so another way to find the tutorial (or even other tutorials) is by searching for it.

I hope you guys like it :)

Comment by LeProgrammeur on 2006 05 26

but all this ajax stuff is really big shit!

its just for playing

but not to make money

Comment by Svens on 2006 05 28

Comment by Damien Jorgensen on 2006 05 28

"as far as i’m concerned, there shouldn’t be any standards; not even rules or even boundaries. --Fariz”

There should be standards of work. Imagine if you went into a restaurant and they didn’t have standards of hygiene, you would be annoyed and walk straight back out. The idea of standards is to maintain a clean and usable environment in the developer industry of the Web.

Anyway, great job on the Chat system.

Comment by mik on 2006 06 02

Hello all!

hi everyone!
It’s really a great script.But I got several problems.Could anyone help,pls?

First, it wasn’t working for me then I changed getChatData.php and sendChatData.php.

But know the problem is, when I send the first message everything is fine but it doesn’t show any message after the first one! I have to refresh the page to see the others!Then I can again send one message which will be displayed without refreshing!!

any ideas about that?

Hi guys!

Just want to share with you that I developed a control that works like a container. All ASP.NET controls that you drop into this container will automatically become AJAX-enabled.
Check out the article at http://www.KYNOU.com

I hope this helps

How do I add timestamps to the chat, do I have to make a new function in the javascript?

Comment by Alex on 2006 08 04

Good script, thank’s . I am very happy use your script. may be , you can give the documentation about your script. Oke..

Comment by sandino berutu on 2006 08 08

write
clearTimeout(mTimer);
in place of
clearInterval(mTimer);

in Javascript function handleSendChat()

Importantly!!

Comment by Pazout on 2006 08 15

Hey great app. Alex. I love it’s simplicity and ability to be modified to each persons need relatively easily!!!

I have the same problem as RonnyZenn, however. The app works great if I post a comment it displays it, however, if I post a comment from a different computer it doesn’t display it on the first computer unless I type in a new comment. On your demo it looks like it is checking the server every 4 seconds for new info, however, when I install it on my machine it doesn’t seem to do this.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Much appreciation.
Bobo

Comment by WFE on 2006 10 15

Wow...This is really cool! I love the live preview too, thats cool. Everything works great, tested it, will be adding it to my site, after I make a few changes. Have to make it check my database for registered users and such. Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome script.

Comment by myself on 2006 10 22

quick question, I have a database with registered users, how would I go about putting their profile beside their name? I can’t seem to figure it out…

Comment by myself on 2006 10 22

also, would it be possible to add in chat whispering some how? make it so only you and the other person can see the messages?

Comment by myself on 2006 10 22

another question...how do you get it to say when someone enters or leaves the chat?

Comment by myself on 2006 10 22

Hello, i stumbled across this is a script which i think is great.
One thing i’d like to do is add 2 dynamic links to the bottom right of each blue box. The links would be to a pop up window, and they would pass the value of each id, so would be something like
popupwindow.php?id=the_id_of_each_blue_box

My question is how would i go about adding these links. At the moment, i’m struggling just to add any additional static text to them.

Any help or pointers would be grand.

thanks,

Coris.

Comment by Coris on 2006 10 26

This is a great chat, i would like to thanks plasticshore for this great script, i have it working, and i change it to PostgreSQL database, and make some modification to the script, but i have the same error like RonnyZenn, the first message works great, but then i have to refresh the page to see the other messages i put on it.... ANy idea people??????? thanks and regards from Guadalajara jalisco Mexico (if anyone want tequila just tell me)

hi.. thx for the app

Comment by Erwin Draft on 2007 01 29

to add timestamps to the chat, there are juz several things that need to be changed.
1. getChatData.php (add this line)
$time = $row[1];
echo $id.” ---".$name." ---".$text." ---".$time." ---”;
2. script.js
at insertNewContent function //CHANGE THIS LINE

function insertNewContent(liName,liText,liTime)
oName = document.createTextNode(liName+’ (’+liTime+’) : ‘);

at function handlehHttpReceiveChat() // CHANGE THIS LINE
for(i=0;i < (results.length-1);i=i+4) { //goes through the result one message at a time
insertNewContent(results[i+1],results[i+2],results[i+3]); //inserts the new content into the page
}
lastID = results[results.length-5];

Sorry for the mess, but i hope it could help.

I, like the others, would be interested in seeing the code.  I also don’t really like the “block” paradigm, and would prefer a lines-based system, although I’m sure this would just be a matter of slight code alterations and some css.  Excellent job.

Comment by Michael Greene on 2005 03 21

I’ve been trying for a while now to find some implementation of the Ajax methodology for studding purposes. I’ll be looking at your code -if you din’t mind- to see if i can learn something about Ajax and how is used.

Tanks Leo

Comment by Leo on 2005 03 22

Really nice work.

Comment by Joseph on 2005 03 22

Hi there. thanks for the great feedback!

Changing the style into something more chat like should be possible by simply adjusting the CSS. It is just that I could not be bothered at the time to bully IE into playing along :).

I might have a stab at it later but first want to revisit the time stamp issue.

I can’t wait to see what others come up with! Cheers

Comment by Alex on 2005 03 23

Hi ,

Good work.

It is a sort of a general chat application.

Now if you don’t mind then please mail me some suggestions regarding how to approach for a one-to-one chat module using this technology.

I recently heard of ajax and went searching for tutorials/real examples. Yours was the first site i hit, i dowloaded ajaxchat and tried it - *** *** loved it.

Very good and nice work, you’ve inspired me to pursue this further, and learn more about it :-)

Comment by Vebjørn Berg on 2005 04 05

in getChatData.php

$lastID = (isset($_GET[’lastID’]) && $_GET[’lastID’] *** = 0 ? $_GET[’lastID’] : 0);

settype($lastID,"integer");

in sendChatData.php

$name = $_POST[’n’];

$text = $_POST[’c’];

The original code doesn’t work with register_global=off

Comment by René de Kat on 2005 04 07

Hi,

How can i allow HTML tags?

I have change the php files but nothings changes :S

I think that the problem in the Javascript is.

Who can me tell what i must do?

(Sorry for my bad english)

Comment by Robbert on 2005 04 13

Hey, I am reading the source and it looks like the only way to do this is to hit the server every second to check for new messages. Is there any other way to do this?

And someone check out aimexpress and tell me how they’re doing it. It looks like they’re also using Ajax, but I can’t figure it out.

aim.com (aim express in the left menu)

Comment by vinny on 2005 07 27

http://aimexpress.aim.com//v1_7/gz/dig/fw/all.js

That’s how they did it. What, you can’t read that?

I’ve been working this script extensively while writing my wordpress plugin for it...but I agree it hits up the server too hard. I figure it would be better and faster to print the first 30 or whatever results when the page loads, and then the javascript will load much smaller packets of info and there will be less stress everywhere…

Comment by Jalenack on 2005 07 27

Nice!

I put something together similar to this called Lace.

It basically takes what you’ve done to the next level.

Comment by Brett on 2005 07 27

Heya, can someone direct me howto add time and date of the posts made. Easier to keep track of :)

I assume I need to clean out the database by myself when it got stuffed.
Great script and so much possibilities are possible with this. a blessing :D

Comment by Danny on 2005 07 27

something like this is also available at:

The site is in Indonesian, but after you’re in the chatroom try speaking English and I’m sure several people there will talk to you and give a smilie ;-)

Comment by Hendy Irawan on 2005 07 27

xhtml chat is the 2nd webchat that i encountered. the first was manuel kieslings arsc. as far as i know, he does it without ajax. he just keeps the connection alive and uses php’s flush() function. it’s already very elaborated and looks & and behaves like a traditional chatroom.
but i like your system very much, too. mostly because of it’s small footprint & of the very subtle and elegant updating. i enjoy it very much, thank you!

Comment by prameet on 2005 10 26

why you have not implemented ajax to add comments?

Comment by prameet on 2005 10 26

Thanks prameet. The comments system and actually almost everything else around here is still done the “old fashioned” way because I have so little time available at the moment. And the time I do have I want to spend on something that really needs to be implemented with ajax. And there is loads :) Watch this space (keyword: rollr)!

Comment by alex on 2005 10 26

It’s a very cute program, but when I try to test it on my own web server, I got some problem with character set.
In your website the program can recognize gb2312 charset, but in my website, it can’t, I’m wondering what’s the cause and how to fix it.

Thanks

This is a pretty cool application.  One question I have is what kind server loads are we talking about on a high traffic site?  What do you think is the best way to test it out and put it through some runs to see how well this would run in live, high traffic enviornment.

Great little program!  It’s cool to see the line blurred between discussion forum and live chat…

Comment by Chris on 2005 11 24

I just noticed you’re using ExpressionEngine to power the site.  I was actually looking to somehow integrate this application (or something similar) into EE as some kind of comment replacement.

The one thing I think that needs to be added is some form of flood control and edit mechanism.  That’s what I’m going to try and work on as an expansion to this.

Have you continued working on this or have you moved on to bigger and better?

Comment by Chris on 2005 11 24

Hey! It really good! i love this chat program

Comment by phongjalvn on 2005 12 26

It was very easy to install and I think it has potential. I’m a bit more interested in the functionality, so I’ll just work on index.htm. I liked your suggestions on useful applications. I’m actually working on one of those. Thanks for the great job!

Comment by patxiworks on 2006 03 17

Very cool, and definitely some potential. First thing is t add an AJAX activity indicator like on of these:

Comment by Jeff Crossett on 2006 03 25

I noticed that in the ajax chat the signe + is not submitted as it is used by javascript, is there a way around that?

Thanks.

it is really so cool.I specially wanna thak you for download link!

Comment by RonnyZenn on 2006 06 14

Download the source and installed the script on my local test server (Win32, Apache 2.2.2, PHP 5.1.4, MySQL 5.0.22), changed the DB values in the db.php file and ran initDB.php. However the PHP scripts do not work unless you add some code:
(in sendChatData.php)
$name = $_REQUEST["n"];
$text = $_REQUEST["c"];

(in getChatData.php)
$lastID = -1;
if (isset($_REQUEST["lastID"])) {
$lastID = $_REQUEST["lastID"];
}

In the default code you simply declare the variable without saying where the script should get the data from…

Bom muito bom! eu tenho um exemplo que grava em .txt, mas não ordena em ordem decrescente nem tenho como administrar/apagar os registros selecionados.. Se alguém souber de algum que tenha e que grave em .txt diga-me por favor! preciso muito disso. Obrigado :]

Comment by Laybows on 2006 07 04

I think you’ve put together a great little app. However, upon loading it to my server it doesn’t complete the cycle. I can post from my computer and it displays on my machine, but won’t refresh automatically to display other new inputs. How can I fix this.

Thanks!

Comment by Bobo on 2006 08 23

esto es una garcha

Comment by chancho on 2006 08 24

so how do you manage the length of the chat. Do old messages expire or…

Comment by Arris on 2006 10 05

expiring messages seems like an important feature.  Is this not currently possible; if not, how can it be done?

Comment by Jordan on 2007 04 02

I was eagerly waiting for the new version of styleboost but I don’t really like what happened to it....  i like the comment feature… but not the new design.... 

Comment by Aaron on 2005 01 13

I hope he did not read you comment and decided to take it down afterwards.. Because right now Styleboost is offline.

Comment by alex on 2005 07 29

yes, our city - feelin bad? - just come here - you’ll feel better just by seeing how miserable you could be…

Comment by verena on 2005 01 02

get me wrong - we are actually doing good here : )

Comment by verena on 2005 01 02

Alex, There’s no need to feel ashame fo donating money in the first time.

Vesa and I are very sad about it and we donate some money to the Red Cross, there’s more than 200 Finns and 600 Hongkongers are missing.

Anyhow, you are very nice to put up this article.

Thanks.

Comment by Sam Chan on 2004 12 31

That’s the reason why I’m stil paying “Kirchensteuer” (tax for church). I think this is the best way to make sure that a donation is getting to the affected people. Red cross is also a company driven by the (katholic) church.

Comment by felix on 2004 12 31

I think the best way then would be to give money to the red cross directly rather then having the church decide how much of your money goes into humanitarian activity and how much into “church business”... 

Comment by alex on 2004 12 31

If all the churchtaxes I have to pay would dirctly go to the red cross, the red cross would have golden water taps ;-)

Comment by felix on 2005 01 01

Comment by stephen on 2005 02 14

The video was featured on this past week’s episode of VH1’s Best Week Ever...and it’s on ITunes, too. I guess it’s spreading.

Comment by Robin on 2005 02 15

Hi!

I’m from Hungary. This song was a summer hit of 2004.

Try to find Haiducii - Vodka. Thats a similar song that u might like.

And O-Zone’s album is Disco 2004.

Peace!

Comment by brian on 2005 02 20

Does anyone know where you can download the uncut version of the fat dude singing this song - the one without the crappy images cut in? It’s one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time!

Comment by MoOfErZ on 2005 02 23

All i no bout this guy is that he and his friends wanted to get in some kind of “15 seconds of fame” list in his country but couldn’t for some reason.I no its a pretty good song, but you can get free downloads if you choose to search for 3 hours on google. My email is if you want any more info on it.

Comment by Lizzy on 2005 02 25

Wow! It was pretty cool to hear the song on a Philly radio station while driving down I-95. I grew up in Romania and it was a great surprise.  Kudos for such a great idea!

Comment by 13lood12ed on 2006 12 15

Ya know, I coulda swore that it was in French. that is what it sounded like to me. But it is highly addictive to hear. it will stay in your head for the longest time.

Brilliant, I didn’t know that you can run for such a long distance.

Comment by lilo on 2004 11 10

I voted, and voted Kerry bright and early this morning… Feels good to be part of the system.

I can’t believe the day is finally here. Aligning more with the democatic party, I’ve been involved with the process since the early primaries two years ago now. What a long journey.... I was a Clark supporter and I hear rumors that he may even be asked to take Condoleezza Rice’s job as National Security Advisor if Kerry takes it.  Yeah, Lot’s at stake today… I really need to leave work early to go home and flip through the the news channels all night. =)

Alex and Verena,

Hello! We got a new Saab, 95 aero. We also drove in England in this summer. Vesa drove on the wrong line and we stop in the middle of the intersection.

See you soon.

For 100 dollars (or all the dam trubble of making one) I would atleast want a way to control the dam iPod without opening the dam case. Cool ida but not very good funchionality.

I bet if Keven Rose went and made one of thoes he would figure out a way to do it.

Comment by Aaron on 2004 06 27

i can’t make it over 72… need more practice

Comment by alex on 2004 06 27

I only got like 32 meters so I did not do all that good. 

Comment by Joe on 2004 06 27

I should not brag about this but hey.. after a few hours of practicing i hit 80 meters!!!

Comment by alex on 2004 06 27
