   The recommended way of embedding the WhosOn code into your pages is to place the code just before the end BODY tag (the </BODY>). This will ensure that your page has fully loaded before the WhosOn code is called.

This has two benefits.
1. It means that when a visitor appears in WhosOn you can be sure they viewing the full page.
2. It ensures that your pages are not effected in any way if the WhosOn server is not running.

You can then position the 'click to chat' graphic on your page using a <DIV> tag.

For example:

<DIV style="position: absolute; left: 700px; top: 46px; width:168px; height:17px" id="whoson_live_help">
<SCRIPT language="Javascript" src="/whoson.js" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>
</DIV>
</BODY>

Here the code is at the end of the page before the </BODY> tag, but we are showing the Chat graphic at position 700 pixels left, 46 pixels top.

The other advantage of using a DIV to set the position is that most modern web page editors let you move the DIV block around your page using the mouse.. and you can easiliy move the graphic over existing page elements.
