php & irc

Post by nefus »

Can someone give me a lead on how to make a php script connect into an irc network? Not trying to do anything beyond a simple login, join a channel to deliver some data and then disconnect. No continuous connection required.

The irc gateway information in the manual doesn't seem valid as the document seems to point at xml streaming and the instructions refer to a web page that informs you that icrg2 support has been terminated.

Is it just me or this a quiet little corner of php that nobody does much with? :-)

Have a look at:

I think there are only a few because binary/exe based clients do a better job.
