Applet ssechat
provides a simple chat interface for a web user.
if the chat is not enabled, the applet will shut down.
Otherwise it will present a entry field for the users nick name.
Once this nickname is known, the applet will show chat entries, a textbox to enter
text, a send button and a start/stop button.
The applet requests new chat lines every 5 seconds and immediately after sending text.
The applet will time out after 2 minutes. Clicking on the Start button it can be
restarted. If a user keeps typing text, it won't time out.
Parameter:
<param name="timeout" value="120">
how many seconds to wait after the last 'chat send'
before connection times out
by default this is set to 120
<param name="baseref" value="http://localhost:8080">
if set, the applet will send requests to that location.
Java Applets can only request content from the server they were loaded from
by default the applet will send requests to the document location.
