YShout, an PHP and AJAX powered shoutbox
04/17/2006, By Ajax Impact News



YShout, the AJAX and PHP shoutbox is a lightweight package that allows you to add a shout box to your website. It is standards compliant, non-intrusive, and utilizes AJAX. Rather than a long and boring explanation.



YShout sports a few user-configurable options, but the real kicker is that it outputs valid HTML, which can then be styled with CSS to integrate beautifully with any layout.

Some Features of YShout:

  • Simple, quick install: Just upload the files, include the Javascripts, and an empty div. YShout does the rest of the work for you.


  • AJAX Powered: Yes, it's a buzzword, but with good reason. With AJAX-powered YShout, you never need to reload the page when submitting a message! YShout also auto-refreshes the message list, so you will always be up to date.


  • Customizability: YShout sports a few user-configurable options, but the real kicker is that it outputs valid HTML, which can then be styled with CSS to integrate beautifully with your layout.


  • No database needed: YShout utilizes simple text files to keep track of chats, so there's no need for a hefty database!


  • Flood control: There is a 2-second wait time between messages to prevent evil chat flooders from acting like evil chat flooders.


  • YShout is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 License. You can download YShout from here.
