Using ajax version with your own board Just add "&ajax=true" to the gb.cgi url in order to use the ajax version with your own board.   -posted by admin at 12 Oct 2009 19:00

opps i accidently deleted one of your comments admin D: it was about adding &ajax=true to the URL   -posted by Kutless at 11 Oct 2009 20:10

also i was wondering if there was a parameter that can be set for that using the html coding -posted by Kutless at 11 Oct 2009 20:11

the problem is that the javascript and html code need to be on the server you're connecting to - this seems to be a security restriction in ajax. The best you can do is using the gb.cgi script and put it into an iframe on your site. I realise this doesn't let you customize the gui, but I'm not sure if there is any other way. -posted by admin at 12 Oct 2009 12:12

iphone The chat is now working on the iphone. (Note, however, that you cannot write text onto the whiteboard on the iphone yet).   -posted by admin at 4 Oct 2009 11:36

And the whiteboard text input is now fixed so it will now work on the iphone. If you encounter any further problems on the iphone, please post here. -posted by admin at 5 Oct 2009 11:27

The ajax (non-java) version of Groupboard is ready for testing: http://www.groupboard.com/demo/ajax.shtml Please test it out and reply to this comment with any bugs you find. Also let us know which mobile devices it works on (or doesn't). So far it has been tested on Opera, Firefox, IE, Chrome and Safari on Windows, Ubuntu and OSX. Known issues: - If there are a lot of items on the whi... More   -posted by admin at 16 Sep 2009 19:59

It loads on the iphone but unable to draw. any attempt to draw only scrolls the screen around. I can write in the chat line but unable to enter what I wrote. -posted by eep at 17 Sep 2009 05:41

Try again - both these issues should be fixed now. Note however that you won't be able to write text on the whiteboard on the iphone at the moment. -posted by admin at 17 Sep 2009 12:35

I get a "Script alert: error opening firewall tunnelling connection" with my mobile, not sure if this is my own 'fault' though. (Nokia N95) -posted by Ghoul at 29 Sep 2009 15:16

try reloading the page - it should give you a more detailed error now. -posted by admin at 29 Sep 2009 15:46

The same error message remains. -posted by Ghoul at 30 Sep 2009 05:20

I used my iPhone, half of what I drew didn't show via what I saw on my Mac, but I saw half of the laggy scribbles. Also, I couldn't enter a name, and couldn't chat. -posted by Dumka at 30 Sep 2009 10:22

Ghoul: I changed the error message so it gives the error number and url. It should say something like "Error 404 opening firewall tunnelling connection http://www.groupboard.com/mp/...". If you don't see this, reload the page. Let me know exactly what the error says. -posted by admin at 30 Sep 2009 11:42

Regarding the iphone: it's difficult debugging this without actually having an iphone, but it sounds like an issue with the keydown event. If anyone wants to help me debug, please email info-contact and I'll build a few test pages so we can figure out exactly what is going on with the iphone's keyboard events. -posted by admin at 30 Sep 2009 11:53

For some reason your phone isn't letting you open an xmlhttp connection. Are you sure that wifi/gprs is still active after loading the web page? -posted by admin at 1 Oct 2009 11:53

Good to see you around :) -posted by briahmc at 6 Oct 2009 00:02
