Chat module question

Hope this is the right forum to place this question in.

I am running Dolphin 7.0.6.  I am trying to find a way to make the users chat window pop out into its own frame. I think that's the word anyway. I want them to click chat and have a new window open without the headers and footers, just the actual chat module. just like the "ray chat admin" window is that you access from the flash modules admin panel. This particular issue is causing me quit a bit of grief from my members simply because that's what they are used to on my competitors site, and they are getting tired of getting booted out of chat every time they are tempted to click a tab in the menu.

I hope that someone can help me with this, i have searched everywhere and have found no other question similar to it. I thought this be a common thing. Guess not so common after all.

It would be a lot easier for them to keep the chat page open in a separate tab.

Agreed...  this is what i do on almost all dolphin installs.

Just got to the nav menu builder in admin and click on the chat menu button and set it to open in a new window.    the header and foot will still be there but atleast they can still surf the site from the other window.

Thats what i was afraid of. Thanks for the help, Got one more question about chat if thats ok, is there any way to allow 2 people in chat under the same username? I run a swingers site and the couples like to be able to get in chat at the same time. Is it possible? and if so, how?

i have not tried this in some time but pretty sure it will just give the loading for ever image if you try and log in with the same name.

if you allow guests in the chat room then they would have guest1323 as a user name.

you do bring up a good point here if it is a double account....
