Problem description:
Can anyone give me some help with creating a private messaging system which uses a browser (or something else), in a pop-up window. I don't want to have a full code that I can just copy/paste as that is useless. I want some guidelines and perhaps a demo which uses the same idea.

Thanks in advance!

A browser window probably isn't ideal unless you're pretty proficient with javascript as that's the best way to pull this off without any flickering and whatnot.

I'd say the best way of handling this is using the tools provided by the interface system, make a generic PM window with the input and output controls then use winclone() to make a new window for each person that is messaging you, setting the various attributes as needed so that messages are handled properly.
