Simple Membership Database... Help me???

Ok, I run VolanoChat Pro 2.1, the latest version, on my home computer with JVM as a platform. This chat uses a membership database which I simply cannot understand. I've asked a few people about it, and it only uses three simple scripts (which can be written in any language) to check membership details about a user trying to login to the chat. I prefer to use a SQL database with any type of script... problem is, I don't understand how to write these scripts. The chat applet sends out a user defined http GET request.. something like: http://yourdomain.com/member?name={0} where {0} is the membername.

This accesses the scripts which check the SQL databases to see if the membername is taken, blah blah.

Can someone help me write these 3 simple scripts? If anybody wants to look at the documentation for the VolanoChat Pro servers, they are available at: http://www.volano.com/guide21/index.html

This means the world to me, and anybody who can help me understand this weird script, would be greatly appreciated !!!

Thanks

That is definatley the most un-user freindly set of install files I've ever seen, in fact, I'm pretty sure it is written in Russian
I'm sorry but I can't help with those. Do you have to use that script(s)? I followed this tutorial at http://www.webmasterbase.com/article/319 and then hacked it about to suit my needs, I found it reasonably easy to follow.

No, I don't... I can use any script I want. The end resullt would have to be either of the following:

The script returns either of 3 values:

"true" the membername is taken
"false" the membername is not taken, let the chatter use this name

"error" database error.

The scripts can be written in any language, and the chat client sends an HTTP GET request to these scripts.

Does this make sense to anybody?
