Mesibo API on Microsoft Edge - mesibo

My query is related to Mesibo Javascript SDK. I have integrated Mesibo into my website and was testing it on all browsers but the chat popup does't seem to be working specifically on Microsoft edge. Here is the video of the same: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yyzJn-LDRYAjLQb4DZLOg4i5ApCR9i4W/view?usp=sharing
Can somone please tell me if Mesibo SDK is usually not compatible with Microsoft Edge browser and if not, how can the problem on the video be fixed.
Apart from that, can you also please tell me if the Javascript SDK for Mesibo provides an API to tell the user if he has a new message in a chat (like whatsapp displays "1" on a chat if there is a new message from that person)
Thanks.

mesibo API does not provide any UI, what you are using is the sample code which you can modify to suit your needs.
Read tutorials here, you need to set listener to get new message notification. https://mesibo.com/documentation/tutorials/first-app/js/

How do I listen for Firebase Cloud Messaging messages in the background in a Google Chrome Extension?

I have a Google Chrome Extension that listens for GCM messages in a background script via chrome.gcm.onMessage.addListener. Our provider is planning to upgrade their infrastructure to use the latest Firebase Cloud Messaging which is no longer compatible with GCM. We've confirmed the gcm addListener API no longer receives messages after upgrading to FCM in the dev environment.
I've found migration guides for Android, iOS, and progressive web apps but none specifically for background scripts in Chrome extensions.
Some resources I've found:
Official Chrome Extension example but is specifically for authentication
Documentation for JavaScript, specifically PWAs
Upgrade notification from the Google Developers Blog
The extension that I mentioned in my question three years ago still exists today and continues to rely on the chrome.gcm extension API.
Recently we noticed the gcm.notification.badge value is no longer being passed along with the data object, instead we're seeing a gcm.notification.e property that I believe contains the badge value. I was unable to find any documentation on why that property changed but I did find an answer to my original question:
We are deprecating the chrome.gcm API and encourage you to move to Web
Push Notifications using VAPID authentication. This works on the Web,
in Chrome Extensions and in Chrome Apps. You can find more information
here:
https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/push-notifications/
Web Push Notifications offer a slightly different set of features from
the chrome.gcm API. Please file an issue or contact us directly if you
believe that it cannot satisfy your requirements.

share content from mobile app in flex

I am developing a mobile app using flex 4.5
I want to let the user share a plain text using any of the apps available in his device (whatsapp, facebook, skype, bluetooth, ..). How can I do that? I know how to email, sms and call. But don't know how to share.
Please help
Air does not have native support for this feature, however you can use it with the navigateToURL method, but its still very clumsy.
You need to use Android SDK Share Intent URL's to access the native share menu's.

Styling HTML5 desktop notifications

I've included this plugin for desktop notifications in my Laravel 3 project.
http://aquaron.com/jquery/desktopify
It works fine, only problem is i can't find a way to "style" the notifications!
Is styling the desktop notifications even possible? If it is can someone please point out for me how it is done!
Unfortunately this library uses only .createNotification() and not .createHTMLNotification(), but Google just dropped .createHTMLNotification() support on version 28. There's a warning about this:
Warning: webKitNotifications.createHTMLNotification() in the web notifications API has been deprecated. The new web notifications API only allows text. Chrome notifications API will be promoted to stable soon and web notifications will be updated to use the new rich notifications format.
But it is doing it differently, using this rich notifications.
But this is just for chrome, so if you need it for all browsers, you will have to write your own implementation or find another library to help you.

Can I embed Skype Chat into my website

I'd like to embed a skype chat box into my website. Is that possible? I'm running a LAMP architecture but am open to using a different vps if needed
Have you tried Start chat ?
UPDATED 2019-11-23
Skype Webcontrol has been removed from the Microsoft platform. Could be related to the release of Skype for Web.
In this moment it's strongly recommended to use an alternative solution like Facebook Web Messenger for your site.
UPDATED 2018-09-05 (This information is not valid anymore)
Yes, now it's possible on the following link Skype Webcontrol
The HTML code to add a call button is:
<span class="skype-button rounded" data-contact-id="skype-user-name"></span>
<script src="https://swc.cdn.skype.com/sdk/v1/sdk.min.js"></script>
Set the "skype-user-name" and voilá... nothing else is required.
OLD POST:
No, you cannot embed Skype chat in your website by the time this post is done.
But these are some resources that might be useful:
This is the official site for creating a Skype button in your website for chat or call:
https://www.skype.com/en/developer/create-contactme-buttons/
But I will have to advise that your visitors require Skype Software installed and it's correspondent extension installed. On mobile browsers it will require only the Skype App installed.
This is the HTML code for the website:
SKYPE CALL
call using Skype
SKYPE CHAT
Chat with Skype
SKYPE VOICEMAIL
Leave a voicemail

Skype URI API for the Web: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn745883.aspx

Someone may found this helpful.
<span class="skype-button bubble " data-contact-id="your-skype-id"></span>
<script src="https://swc.cdn.skype.com/sdk/v1/sdk.min.js"></script>
found here..
It is only possible to start the locally installed Skype-client on the visitors computer from your website.
Skype provides an api for this:
http://dev.skype.com/skype-uri
And here you'll find a Skype URI Tutorial:
http://dev.skype.com/skype-uri/skype-uri-tutorial-webpages
What you're looking for is a live support chat. There are plenty commercial offerings out there. Maybe you can also find some free script.
Yes you can do this using Skype Web SDK.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn962133(v=office.16).aspx
These answers are old and not relevant at the moment. Using the unofficial NodeJS API for skype, one can embed the newer cloud based chat groups.
https://github.com/ShyykoSerhiy/skyweb (I am in no way associated with this project)
var skyweb = new Skyweb();
skyweb.login(username, password).then((skypeAccount) => {
skyweb.createThread([{"id":"8:someuserid","role":"User"},
{"id":"8:live:someliveuserid","role":"User"}
{"id":"8:youruserid","role":"Admin"}]);
});

Social networking on smart phones?

I have to implement application that can post to the selected network I can select from the application drop down.
There are Objective-C frameworks for Facebook (Three20) and Twitter (Twitter-OAuth-Library & MGTwitterEngine).
A quick trip to Google find facebook-android-sdk for connecting to Facebook on Android.
As far as Twitter goes, you can find a whole list of APIs for various languages/platforms on Twitter's developer website.
EDIT
A second trip to Google finds this on developer.myspace.com for adding MySpace to an iOS app. Also, see this page and this page on LinkedIn's Developer Network.
Basically, LinkedIn is just using a JSON encoded API with OAuth. You should be able to handle that with any OAuth library.
EDIT2:
It seems that I've found another great library. Check out ShareKit, which helps with alot of what you're trying to do.
#appaspect and #moshe, this is an old thread so the question my no longer be relevant, but here's a new open-source SDK and social api service: Socialize http://www.GetSocialize.com . Full feature set at http://go.GetSocialize.com/features
