What is Wiimes?

Wiimes is a messenger for the web. It means that you can place a small piece og code on ANY website, blog, shop, profile etc, and start to chat with people visiting your website!

The smart thing about wiimes is that you don’t need to install anything, just go to the webpage, and it works - all over the world!

Hope you enjoy it ;-)

Which browsers does Wiimes work with?

  • Internet Explorer 5.x, 6.x, 7.x
  • Firefox 1.x, 2.x
  • Others may work but have not been tested - give us some feedback if you want your favorite browser to work with wiimes.

You also need to have JavaScript enabled, and the XMLHTTP ActiveX object (In Vista/IE7 the “Native XMLHTTP” option or the XMLHTTP ActiveX object).

For the client to work, you will need Flash Player 7.x or newer installed, which about 96% of computers on the internet already have.

Activate ActiveX control - What is this now?

In newest Internet Explorer 6 and 7 version, you can get a small box around the chat widget, saying “Click to activate and use this control” and you have to click on it, before you can use the widget..

Its due to Microsoft lost a patent suit with Eolas, but it can be fixed :)

You can remove it by inserting a little HTML code AFTER the Widget EMBED code:

IMPORTANT: Do not copy/paste this code, because some of the chars here is not the right ones, instead you need to enter them one by one..OR just goto this htm page and CTRL+C: http://widget.wiimes.com/acfix.htm

<!−−[if IE]>

<style type=”text/css” id=”acfix”>embed{display:none}</style>

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://widget.wiimes.com/acfix.js” defer=”defer”></script>

<![endif]−−>

What is does its hiding all the embed using css, and finally loads a external JavaScript file, that reloads the widget dynamic on the webpage - and the “need to click” is gone! Its only runs in Internet Explorer, FireFox does not have this problem.
