Error R764. chat room name not valid (ParaChat v5.7/v6.x)

Problem:

Why do I get an "Error R764. chat room name not valid" message in my chat window?

---

Solution:

This error message will appear in your ParaChat window when you have selected a chat room name that includes invalid characters. ParaChat rooms must contain only alphanumeric values, and may also include dot, dash, and/or underscore as well. All other characters may cause an Error R764 to occur.

To remedy this error, remove any invalid character included in your room name, which is the "Channel" value in your ParaChat HTML:

<param name="Channel" value="#Greg's Chat Room">

In the sample parameter above, the chat room name contains 3 invalid characters -- an apostrophe (Greg's), and 2 spaces (between the words "Greg's","Chat" and "Room"). A valid room name would not include the apostrophe or spaces. Below are 5 examples of valid room names that fix the error in the chat room name noted above:

1. #Gregs-Chat-Room

2. #Gregs_Chat_Room

3. #GregsChatRoom

4. #Gregs-Chat_Room

5. #Gregs_Chat-Room <param name="Channel" value="Gregs.Chat_Room">
