Link with (number of logged in users)

[Montero]

Hi!
I wonder if there is a way to show how many users are online in a '(number)' beside the Link from another page. Same server for documents and all.

I'd like the link to show like this (a href) "Free Chat Link (12)" (/a) for 12 chatters online.

Thanks!

hi,

Make ajax call, to the php that collects the users, then in the response from the get the anchor tag created just the way you like..
append the this response to a div in the page you wanna show it..

Code: Select all

<?php
// all processed from code above, you have to make it..


$count = $users; // a an integer

echo '<a href="chat.php">Free Chat Link('.$count.')</a>'; 
?>

It's just an idea..

regards.

That sounds awesome! But I don't know where to start with this. Any hints on how to collect that valuable data?
The URL etc. I can figure out but not how to collect the array.

The info should be collected from /chat/

Thank you for taking your time!
