I've just installed a new shoutbox (called Chatbox (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=131002)) that is not server intensive and will hopefully not get Servage complaining again. It's a very simple but effective shoutbox with a refresh button and an option to view all old shouts.

Hope you will like this alternative shoutbox. :)

Every time I try to shout, I get a database error...

My school blocks the chat box ><
I really hate the school's policies....

There's a bug in the shoutbox already...
Users with an apostrophe in their names get a database error because the apostrophe isn't converted to HTML code.

it just requires addslashes() and stipslashes() in combination with htmlenteties() on the right position

I can't fix the bug myself, I'm too n00by in PHP still.
I've placed the problem in the support thread on vB.org 2 days ago, but still no response...

If you re-create my FTP account I can get it fixed in no time.

The hack has been updated and the problem with the apostrophe in usernames has been fixed.

there seems to be a problem also that it creates when another user shouts or it seems to reset what you are typing in the text box.

That's because of the automatic refresh of the shoutbox. I sometimes have problems with it too. It might be better to remove the text box from the shoutbox page and insert above it.
