Description
Chatbox doesn't work with 4.6 because it is using the depricated drupal_specialchars() function (see this page). Find "drupal_specialchars(" and replace with "check_plain(" and everything starts working again.

Indeed... I'll work on it when I get home... there are actually several modules that need updating.

Perhaps the DrupalDocs.org documentation should include an entry for drupal_specialchars() saying, "deprecated, please use check_plain().
Right now, if you search for drupal_specialchars in drupaldocs.org head, it says "not found".
Also, the old drupal_specialchars entry in drupaldocs 4.5 does not say deprecated.
