I get a screen that has the chat room box off to the left and the IM box at the bottom right. There is nothing in teh Main chat window and the IM is stuck on loading.....

I'd also like to place only the IM chat on the screen not the large chat room, how do I do this?

I am running a Joomla 1.5.24 site, PHP 5.2 fast cgi.

thats because you have some error that is sent back by the server instead of the usual response.
try using the chromes console to see what errors you get.

I am getting the same problem that this user got "Submitted by ceegee45 on Mon, 10/31/2011 - 22:26"
I installed the latest FreiChatX and then downloaded the module and installed it in my Joomla CMS which has a community builder. I want this chat to work with my Joomla CB but on the website it shows the chat window but all it shows is "Fetching...user..data"

Can you give me your website address , also send me one test account details
so that i can check for the solution regarding your problem .

Alternatively , you can get the installation done from us , so if there is
actually any problem , we will be able to solve it quickly .
