Chattar said “Yahoo pingbox is free to use on your web page and works well.”

Wrong !!!

If visitor as nerver visited yahoo webpage, pingbox doesn’t work at all !!!

You can verify by erasing IE cookies , and see .

Visitor, like me, will never see your chatbox, only a blank space .

It is an yahoo pingbox bug.

Thanks for this post.

I found a bug. Does not work with IE or Firefox if it has never gone on to the yahoo website, a cookie seems to be needed !!!

If anybody has any good ideas on how to correct this, let me know!

Best regards.

[...] To remedy this problem, a contact search bar is now available. Status messages are also easily changeable as the GUI provides editable status message textbox on the main window. The Pingbox visitors on your Pingbox appear as groups on your contact panel. (We have a separate article for Yahoo! Pingbox here) [...]
