• b-li! Launching an IM Window via JavaScript

  I'm attempting to create a "IM This Page" widget that website owners can place on their pages to let users send their pages over different IM clients.  AOL and Yahoo were pretty simplistic, as they register the aim: and ymsgr: protocols with the OS.  MSN Messenger on the other hand has been extremely difficult. With older version of MSN, one could create JavaScript objects using the progid's MSNMessenger.UIAutomation, MSNMessenger.M ...Show All

  I have a web service that uses the MSN search web service. When its called by a client using the SOAP toolkit, after about 10 calls, the try/catch block around the MSN search call within my web service starts to catch this error: Client found response content of type '', but expected 'text/xml', which is returned to the web service's client.

The only catch is its an internal SIP connection, but I want external people to be able to see if they are logged in. In my case, I run a CS department, and we all log into Messenger each day, if I could show on a public website the status of my agents they would know how long of a wait to expect. ...Show All

• Christian Paparelli API Questions

  I've run into a couple of issues in my development. Both are easy enough to work around but I'd prefer clarification if possible. The first issue is with the response.

To verify I wrote a console stub and dumped the stream to the screen and it shows as a " " there. I've wo ...Show All
