A few posts ago Ken asked if there was a way to use flaschat on his Ipad.

Ipad/Pod doesn't support flash, but there is a way you can use the iPad although it's a bit covoluted.

You need to use a PC with remote desktop capabilities or VNC and the iPod/Pad as a remote terminal. There is an iPod/Pad Remote Desktop app ITap and also other VNC apps are available.

Once you have enabled Remote desktop on your PC you can use the iPod/Pad client to connect and use flashchat as a remote desktop session, I can confirm it works, it's a little more effort, but a lot easier than carting a laptop or PC, Monitor Keybd and mouse from room to room (or the dunny for H) ...

To use Remote Desktop/Itap you need either XP Pro, Vista or Win7 Pro or ultimate and the iTap app.

Otherwise if you have XP home, Vista Win7 Home, Home premium etc you'll need to install VNC and get a VNC client app for the iPod/Pad.

As a bonus once you have RDP or VNC working you can control your PC for any use including astro (monitoring PHD or using the Autostar suite for example).

Good memory, Phil! : P

Ah, jpeg mentioned you were using the site on your iPad. I was baffled -- didn't realise you were VNC'ing it up!

Cheers.

Thanks for the reply but I actually asked for a non flash site that people use for the chartroom. I work in IT so I'm aware of and use VNC all the time but was just asking if anyone used the chat room on a iPad with a non flash site using java via vnc or html5 for example.

Is this the chat room or should I go elsewhere albiet I'll rant here unless directed elsewhere,

My wife broke her arm 5 months ago and because of her MS it's only just healing now, at one stage the Quakes where thinking of operating which involved removing a piece of her hip (bone) to put in her arm.

Well when I heard this the first thought I had was "the hip bones connected to her arm bone" thereby changing the lyrics of the song and the whole human anatomy.

Needless too say after visit 6 to the specialists they decided 6 weeks ago not too operate and hopefully by the next visit around mid October she'll take her arm brace off.

So while everyone else whinges about their problems I've been dealing for the last 5 months with , shopping, cooking, cleaning, caring, working full time and while in that time suffering from a bout of pheumonia. Alas I still have a flemmy cough every morning since being deemed cured of it a few weeks ago.

To top it off even after my darling wife has her brace removed there will be a period of physio to return strength to her arm, so it could be a few more months before she's back to some form of normality.

In all this time we've had to ask our friends to come too our place, only ventured out twice together socially, several times to the hospital, argued a lot, cried and joked over the situation.

We are in dire need of a holiday but this will have too wait, life goes on.

I feel for you Trev as a not to different situation has come my way (and a few others.) I think if you can laugh together it will be all manageable.
Thinking of you mate, it's not easy!

Life indeed goes on. There's a few of us here who missed out on the bed of roses. Still, if you focus on what you can do, rather than what you can't, it helps, a lot. I've recently started meditation to control stress, and that has given me so much peace. I'm in control now. A wonderful feeling to have.
Catch you next time in chat.
