- DrJokepu 16y agoUnfortunately there's no generic web presence mechanism for XMPP or at least I don't know of any, however ejabberd (one of the most widely used XMPP servers) has mod_webpresence http://www.ejabberd.im/mod_webpresence http://www.ejabberd.im/mod_webpresence and there's also a jQuery plugin for that - but it's not very generic.
- chronomex 16y agoI'm not sure how difficult it would be to create, but you could have an XMPP bot request presence subscriptions from all users who enter usernames. Hmm, this sounds like an interesting problem.
- DrJokepu 16y agoProblem is that more often than not to be able to receive presence updates, you need to be on the presence ("friends") list of the other party, you can't just request the presence of any user in XMPP world. Even if you could, it take a few seconds, which is a very long time in the lifetime of a web request.
