[Juser] Re: Integrating Jabber into a website

[Chris]

Thanks for the response Rene.  I've attempted to get Net::Jabber 
installed, but it seems to require XML:Stream as well.  We tried 
installing that, but seems it doesn't work with our version of perl 
(5.005_03).  Unfortunately, it's not possible for us to upgrade our 
version of perl, or install php, on our servers at this time.  Any advice?
