PHP-Chat is based purely on PHP/MySQL which means it does not use any other technology such as Java or Javascript.

Features:

- embedded into the main site of PHP-Nuke (using IFRAMES)
- IRC-like commands (see help within the chat)
- no refresh of the main chat window
- low bandwith, only sends a chatstring if somebody (including the system) wrote anything
- fortune cookies
- periodic activities that are only executed if the chat is "relatively" quiet
- custom chat colors (saved in the nuke user table once the user logged out) (/color)
- integration of Nuke themes (not completed)
- multiple rooms (users can create chat rooms and become the room admin there) (/room)
- private messages (/msg)
- Nuke modules start page with display of rooms and users
- URL detection
- HTML tag prevention
