Clicking My Place, My Messages, My Chat Rooms provides you with easy access to all CNAV chat rooms you are authorized to use. On this screen, you can do the following:
Enter nickname: Enter the name by which you wish to be identified to other chat room participants.
Select chat room format: Select the format in which you wish to use the chat room. Your options are Java format and Text format. Most users will want to select Java format here. However, dial-up users may prefer Text format because it supports faster transmission times. Text format is also useful to users relying on older versions of Netscape with minimal Java support.
Choose a chat room: Tick the option button for the chat room you wish to enter now. To obtain additional information about any chat room you are authorized to use, click the appropriate Info icon.
After entering your nickname, selecting a format, and choosing a chat room, click Submit to actually enter the chat room.
