We are trying to integrate messenger with our site (database is sql server), so that once a user has signed into the website they can launch messenger without having to sign in again.

 

We can update our site code to write directly to the messenger database with the registered user details.

 

So how can we launch messenger, once a user has signed into the site, so that the new messenger window is automatically signed in for that user?

 

Any advice much appreciated.

 

 

Hi surfo101,

 

Try add OnClientClick="Chat_OpenMessengerDialog();"  into the button which you use for login. like below

 

 <asp:Button ID="btnLogin" runat="server" OnClientClick="Chat_OpenMessengerDialog();" />

 

Regards,

How do we indicate which user has logged in, when we launch messenger? Do we pass the login details in the call to launch?

How do we actually login in the user? Is it with a session cookie?

Hi there

 

Thanks for the response, I've seen this article before and I don't understand it.

 

Our approach is that we'll write the registered members details to the sql server messenger database, so the two databases will be synched.

 

The question we have is how do we login the user and launch the messenger application?
