Many free hosts will not allow an ajax based chat as it may overload other accounts on the same server.

I'm having a similar issue, except I don't even have an editor.js file to edit in the version of prosilver I'm using.

To recap, the Send, Reset, Smilies and BBCodes buttons do not work. Purge does, though.

The editor.js edit is for the input box in mchat.
The .js file edits in the overall_header,html is for the drop down smilies, bbcodes and scroll.

Check your overall_header and make sure the .js files needed to load are in the right place.
Check in the prosilver/template/ directory for the editor.js file for those edits. Your style may inherit that file from prosilver.
No is NEVER an Option and NEVER is the only Option when it comes to Giving Up!

Uninstalling mChat and reinstalling it appeared to do the trick as far as posting is concerned. Didn't fix the issue for the smilies and bbcodes, obviously, as I don't have the js files necessary to allow those to function properly.
I checked the newest build of PHPBB (3.1.2) for the editor.js file in the prosilver template, but it doesn't appear to be there. Any ideas where I can grab this? Will it even help if they aren't using it in the current build?

This mod hasn't been updated for 3.1.2 and it is odd that prosilver no longer has editor.js within it as there is this line within posting_buttons.html file

<script type="text/javascript" src="{T_SUPER_TEMPLATE_PATH}/editor.js"></script>

However, saying that the editor.js file can be found within the assets/javascript directory in 3.1.2

NBD. I removed the Smilies and BBCodes buttons from the post area for now. Most people know how to write out the code by now anyway.

Thanks!
