    ICQ per PHP

    I'm looking for an ICQ-Client that works via PHP. Reasin is that the
    Java Client from the ICQ webpage is buggy and also doesn't work if there
    is a proxy in between.

    I found Irsim which is a Jabber client and also works with ICQ but
    unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. Any other PHP-Scripts for ICQ
    (both sending and receiving messages) or any server where Irsim runs on
    so that I could test it?

    I would suggest you using Jabber, as it's XML and not proprietary.
    Furthermore it supports logon multiple times, with different ressources.
    You could let the webpage message you on events then. However, the
    PHP class I use currently is damn slow (5s to get the message sent).
    You'll find some classes for PHP by just googling around.
    However you would need to implement streaming and such, and therefore
    implementing such a thing is quite a hard task.

    Bye,

      Regarding this well-known quote, often attributed to Martin Brunner's
      famous "Tue, 01 Jun 2004 23:23:25 +0200" speech:

      Just a thought. If all you need to do is send messages out, you could mimic
      the "Send Me A Message" form on the Unified Messaging Center
      (http://wwp.icq.com/your_icq_number). I've done that for the "Send me an
      ICQ message" feature on my site.

        No, unfortunately I'll also like to get messages. :-(

          What about a CLI client over SSH? (e.g. micq is a very nice one)
          To write an ICQ client is a hard task, as the protocol isn't open and
          quite strange.

            Would be fine but SSH doesn't run everywher if you are behind a proxy so
            I need something like SSH over an Internet Site, maybe then.
