Bots working in time ranges and time zones

Is possible to set a working time range for the bots. The window dialog with the bot will only appear within that time range. If you don't want or need this feature, just set the bot to work from 0 to 23.

var workingFrom = 9;
var workingTo = 18;
var workingTimeZone = "-3"; // EXAMPLE TIME ZONE

Sending the data (client side)

There are two methods for posting data in the samples:

• First method: Standard XMLHttpRequest.
• Second method: Creating an image variable, setting in the src value a server URL where all the parameters are sent by GET and the answer of the server must be an image in order to get a valid reply from the bot. This method is useful if you want to avoid the CORS limitation that may exists between servers.

Receiving the data (server side)

There is a AssistBot.php file in this repository with a sample logic.

Based on BotUI
