Login into yahoo messenger and send im
Hello guys
I need some help in a project.
I want to make a simple, Web based IM system for my page.
I don't want to post my Yahoo Messenger ID but I want to receive messages from visitors. For this I have to build a script that logs into the Yahoo Messenger service, sends me an message then disconnects.
I've studied the YMSG16 protocol (carbonize.co.uk/ymsg16.html) and found some vb examples on google, but I have problems implementing into PHP.
I know I have to use CURL to send signals to the Yahoo server but I don't see how can I do that.
I found this class: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/3373.html but it uses e-messenger, recently known as e-buddy, and it's pretty old. Unfortunately is not working anymore.
I'm sure it's possible to build such thing. http://ankitjain.in/sendim/ the guy sells it for 50 euros but I don't have that kind of money.
Thanks

I'd have thought sockets would be better for this kind of job.
Re: Login into yahoo messenger and send im
So... can you please tell me how to make my "dream" come true?
Seriously, I'm googleing for like 2 weeks and I didn't came up with no results. Is it just that hard ?
Thank you

Well, I have no idea how yahoo messenger works, so I can't help you there...
I guess you should ask yahoo, or read their docs or something. Just find out what port they're using, connect to that port and...send whatever commands they want.
Sorry I can't be of any more help. But that's how I'd do it anyway.

Well .. there is nothing related on this on http://developer.yahoo.com/
I saw a message on their forum. A developer said they don't provide any support on this kind of development...
Thanks

Re: Login into yahoo messenger and send im
Maybe they don't want you doing this then...
In that case...you probably can't do it (obviously)

This took three seconds to search for and its probably a good start

My advice is to get a browser plugin which shows you the headers being passed, log into Yahoo from e-buddy and work it out for yourself.

Yeah. I saw that as well. Tried to debug it but no lock so far.
Thank you anyway.
