Fixed tab/window focus detection in IE and Chrome
0.2.0 (21/11/2010):
Added Popup view
Added support for XenPorta (simply add the include code to one of its templates)
Users viewing the shoutbox no longer show up as viewing 'Unknown page' on the online list.
Users will now have their last activity date updated when posting shoutbox messages and will therefore no longer go offline while using the shoutbox.
Fixed 'Uncaught error'
Fixed redirection after editing/deleting messages with rewrites turned off.
The navigation tab and dropdown menu now use the XF link builder.
0.1.4 (03/11/2010):
Fixed server error some users were experiencing when installing or uninstalling the addon.

Moved Message Tools dropdown to the left of the message timestamps.
Fixed 'Always show message tools dropdown' option, which previously also overrode full view.
Reimplemented permissions using built-in helper methods.
0.1.2 (31/10/2010):
Fixed regression in 0.1.1 - plain URLs weren't being parsed into links correctly.
0.1.1 (31/10/2010):
Added alternative template code, suitable for inclusion above or below the forum list.
Added extra image display modes: Zoom and Thumbnail Zoom (the latter being the new default), both based on XenForo's click to expand system.
Added configurable BBCode parsing levels: Full (old behaviour), Basic (the new default; img, url, b, i, u, s, color) and None (url only).
Added height setting to the admin options.
Guest posting is now supported (with the appropriate permissions). Auto refresh will also apply for guests if they have permission to post.
Reorganised admin options page.
Added option (default off) for message tools to be displayed on the sidebar/alt view.

Now makes use of xen:link etc. to correctly compensate for rewrites being off
Now uses JSON (and more of the XenForo javascript framework) rather than raw output, to allow for proper error handling, etc.
Messages will now display on the same line as username if possible, otherwise they will wrap directly after the username as before.
