hi, i have been working on DB for about three weeks and have been working in an old c++ program (called Turbo C) for about a year so i know the basics of programming. im pretty much still a n00b though i was wondering if anyone knew how i would make a chat box which is movable like a window. also i was wondering if there was anyway to use either html or something else to make windows like this.

Not easily - the problem with windows is that it messes up the screen (because you can't call a VSYNC), and thus you have to make sure it can't be moved.

If you want a 'proper' window, it will be a pain...

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...
