For several months now, the Web Client has been giving some browsers as well as users issues of various kinds. With all of the reports of these issues, I have been doing my own testing of the Web Client and have found some interesting things that happen or can happen, depending on how you are using this chat client.
On February 8th, 2010, we will do a live testing of the Web Client and will demonstrate how this client interacts with certain browsers and we will use our Live Training Room during this episode to show anyone that is interested in viewing, just what my personal testing has revealed. The caveat here is, this testing is just that, personal. It is not official Talkshoe testing nor is it done with the express intent to have certain bugs ironed out. This demonstration will be just a demonstration and nothing more.
Here’s just a snippet of what I have discovered:
When using the Web Client with Google Chrome or Safari, you MUST be logged in using a Talkshoe user account and you must be using the latest version of these browsers, otherwise errors and issues will ensue and the Web Client will not allow for some functions, such as typing in the chat room!
So, for your fans of these aforementioned browsers, you can use the Web Client, but be sure to log in using your Talkshoe account and not as a guest!
Again, this in no guarantee that it will work for you, just because it works for me!
Here’s another caveat for using the Web Client. It DOES work for many Talkshoe users and works very well. There are others that for whatever reason, it does not work. The reasons could be as simple as spyware or adware, a virus or trojan, router ports blocked or any number of reasons. IF the Web Client will not work for you, try deleting your Cache and Temporary Internet Files from your browser, then close your browser and restart it again and see if the Web Client functions or not. This may sound like a work around, and for some it is. However, this little not real time consuming tip does work for many that are having issues running the Web Client!
