Not exactly a DB question but the storing will be done in a DB and using PHP.
Anyways with the growing demand of IM's I want to add to my site easy access for people
contact me. I could add my Yahoo! username for Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger email address but
I want to make it easier for people to add me, most people won't bother doing it the long way.
So want I want to do is store my id's to a DB than run a query to fetch the id required than
output a hyperlink to the user to add me. When they click the hyperlink it will automatically
detect if they have got that Messenger system on their system and if logged in I will be added to
the list. If not logged in or have the Messenger than it will display a error.
Is there a way to DETECT if they have Yahoo! or MSN Messengter installed?
Also I know the hyperlink code to add users from a url for Yahoo! Messenger but does anyone know
it or some code for MSN Messenger?
Thanks for your time.
