              Hi Scott,

              I've never heard of a user to user talk feature in the chat module! Please could you explain how you think it's supposed to work. I did come across another chat issue - MDL-26094 - which seemed to suggest that prefixing a message with 'To' resulted in messages being sent to specific users. Perhaps this is what you are referring to?

              Scott, thanks for the screenshot. However, I don't understand why I don't see a talk link - see my attached screenshot.

              Helen: that looks like an old version of the chat module that you're using; I thought the js chat was dropped in 2.0. Scott's screenshot is from the ajax interface. I can confirm that nothing seems to happen when clicking "Talk" in both Firefox and Chrome. My dev server is running Moodle 2.0.1+ (Build: 20101229) on Apache/mySQL.

              I'm having the same problem when testing with IE8 and Firefox - 'Beep' works fine but nothing seems to happen when clicking 'Talk'.

              This is caused by the   on line 250

              250:     var talk = Y.Node.create('<a href="###">'+M.str.chat.talk+'</a>&nbsp;');

              Remove the &nbsp; from there and add it later on (line 254) and everything will work properly.

              254:     li.all('td').item(1).append(Y.Node.create('<div></div>').append(talk).append('&nbsp;').append(beep));

              Tested on Firefox, and Chrome.

              Edit: I guess I should say which FILE. mod/chat/ajax_gui/module.js

              The main moodle.git repository has just been updated with latest weekly modifications. You may wish to rebase your PULL branches to simplify history and avoid any possible merge conflicts. This would also make integrator's life easier next week.

              TIA and ciao
