Flash IRC Script
Ever since I can remember, we’ve been relying on a Java applet to provide visitors an interface to IRC - without requiring them to install a separate client, sign up for an account, or fire up a proprietary program. We didn’t choose Java because it’s an amazing technology, however. Java in the browser is slow as molasses, and I’d just as soon shove icepicks under my toenails than use it.
But, until today, we had no choice but to use Java for Web-accessible IRC.
TFlash has finally been designed and released by ThunderIT Consulting Inc. - and we’re already using it on our live site. The script can be embedded anywhere, which means that the community can start building desktop widgets which include not only our live feed, but the accompanying chat room as well.

Only works on the WyldRyde IRC Network. :(
Any chance of them being cool and just releasing the code or letting it work on existing IRC channels?

AFAIK, the client uses XmlSockets, which means it needs some kind of gateway between the IRC server and Flash Client. So, even if they release the code, you would still need to install another application on the server that would translate messages between flash and IRC.

Rumor has it that UnrealIRCd 4 will have support for XML connections, but it’s still pretty hard to find a client. Releasing this client as freeware, with their logo in the corner, would ensure a LOT of visitors…
