I personally tried to embed it into my wesite. I came across the following issue.
@ Whenever i create a username of special characters or the username contains spaces, the chat window did not open.
I worked continuously for a week and finally i was able to solve the issue.
I decided to make it available to everyone else. because here in this blog i found a lot of people seeking to resolve the same issue
Here is the result http://itswadesh.wordpress.com/2011/05/07/gmail-facebook-style-jquery-chat/

Thanks, this script free ?
Is it ok if I need to post this info on one in all my own blogs? I think my readers would appreciate the info.
Does any one have asp.net code for that, I could send the message to database but I could not convert ‘chatheartbeat’ function to asp.net.
Is is possible with ASP ?
hi, where is the code?
Thanks for the great post. I had added a link to your site to share this information around.
