Start:

-----------------------------

Start: Textbox1 Code:
Your username have to be more then 3 letters =)

If TextBox1.TextLength = 3 Then
            Button1.Enabled = True
        End If

Start: Button1 Code:
-This will hide the form and show the main form

Code: Select all

 Me.Hide()
       Main.Show()

MAIN: Button1:

Code: Select all

        Dim name As String
        name = TextBox1.Text
        Try
            Dim client As New Net.WebClient
            client.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("FTP USERNAME", "FTP PASSWORD")
            client.UploadString("ftp://YOURWEBSITE.com/chat.txt", "[" & TimeOfDay & "] " & Start.TextBox1.Text & ": " & TextBox1.Text & vbNewLine & RichTextBox2.Text & vbNewLine)
            RichTextBox2.Clear()
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("Error, this error is being taken care of.", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Error!")
        End Try
        Try
            Dim client As New Net.WebClient
            client.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("FTP USERNAME", "FTP PASSWORD")
            RichTextBox2.Text = client.DownloadString("ftp://YOURWEBSITE.com/chat.txt")
            If RichTextBox2.Text = RichTextBox1.Text Then  Else  : RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox2.Text

        Catch ex As Exception
        End Try
        TextBox1.Text = ""

MAIN Timer1 code:

Code: Select all

        Try
            Dim client As New Net.WebClient
            client.Credentials = New Net.NetworkCredential("FTP USERNAME", "FTP PASSWORD")
            RichTextBox2.Text = client.DownloadString("ftp://YOURWEBSITE.com/chat.txt")
            If RichTextBox2.Text = RichTextBox1.Text Then  Else  : RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox2.Text
        Catch ex As Exception
        End Try
    End Sub

Timer Interval: 5000
Timer Enabled = True

You have to edit the places with 'FTP USERNAME', 'FTP PASSWORD' and 'YOURWEBSITE.com'

Hope you understood the tutorial.

I've edited some stuff =)

So you don't have to click button1 all the time:

Code: Select all

   Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown
        If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
            Button1.PerformClick()
        End If
    End Sub
