the truth is you can't do it in javascript alone.
You can get messages , and send messages, but only to the server or another window in the same browser.
a chat server can be very simple, it has to take messages, and have them available for the other users to get.
Most cgi solutions will work like a cheap e-mail, sending and storing messages, similar to yahoo answers!
to get something close to yahoo messenger, you need much cooler ajax type.
which way do you want to go? real chat or store & forward?
