Thanks for you idea .

 

    I know what it means .

 

    Currently the CuteChat list the message by time .

 

    maybe is 'SELECT  * FROM CUTECHAT_MSGS WHERE DT>=@lastdt"

 

    Each user have their @lastdt , when the user update the messages , they get the message , and set the @lastdt to now .

    After a few seconds , they use the old @lastdt to fetch messages again .

 

    When you re-connect the room  , the @lastdt is set to min-value . so the last messages would be listed .

 

    CuteChat has a configuration property to control that.

 

    <cuteChat historytimeout="10"/> means , when you get in the room, you could see the last messages in 10 minutes .

    (default value is 30 , because more people need to know what the users are chatting in the room)

    if you set the historytimeout to 0 , you would get nothing .

 

Regards , Terry .
