Show MSN status in Sharepoint

Jan Tielens has published this tip on how to show your MSN status into a Sharepoint site.

What you've to do is simply drag and drop a Content Editor web part on a SharePoint site, open the tool pane and click the Source Editor button. In the text entry window type following HTML:

My presence information:
&ltspan>
&ltimg border="0" height="12" width="12"
src="/_layouts/images/blank.gif" onload="IMNRC('email@address.com')" id="IMID1" ShowOfflinePawn=1> Jan Tielens
</span>


The result (the menu showed above pops up when you hover over the image) is:

The magic happens in the IMNRC client-side Javascript function that's called when the OnLoad event of the image is triggered. This function can be found in the /_layouts/1033/owsbrows.js file.Make sure your put span tags around image and the text, otherwise you'll end up with some unexpected (but funny) behavior. Also remember that you need to generate a unique id value for each presence information block.

Finally, if you don't want the offline image to show when the user isn't online, you can omit the ShowOffLinePawn tag.

Nice tip... thanks!

The product seems really rich of features Louis Vuitton Bag Lock Pearl Bracelet(and it's more "light" than Project). There's only a disadvantage (for me ): Leather Bracelet</h4>
OpenProj uses the Java Runtime Environment version 1.5 or later, <h4>Louis Vuitton Handbags-LV Bellevue PM Handbag in Bleu Nuit</h4> so you're forced to install it on your machine.
