<< < (5/5)

skwire:
It's on EFNet.

sgtevmckay:
Thanks  :D

mouser:
Try the chatroom now -- sorry i didn't realize there was an ongoing problem.
Problem was caused by a recent addition of code to bust out of iFrames.

Target:
Yeah it's playing up for me too. I'd recommend using an irc client. typical favorites on Windows are mIRC and X-Chat, Linux would be X-Chat or irssi.

the XChat program mentioned by Ehtyar above, does proxy setup and it's freeware. i've never tried it before but seems to be quite popular.-lanux128 (January 17, 2010, 07:59 PM)

I am sorry about that but mouser said there wasn't any iframes on the site. He forgot about that one.

The code to bust out of frames/iframes became necessary when I discovered that links to pages on dc that appear in the friendfeed facebook app, were loading dc's pages within the facebook interface in such a way that it was plastered with facebook ads and you couldn't even tell it was dc.

is the chatroom borked?

(the ads appear in the right column that isn't showing in this screenshot)
