Hi Thomas,

I enjoy to see the first extension in TER build upon xaJax( apart from the
xaJax Tutor). I also like your coding style, which comes close to my vision
of modern coding I started to describe in:

<http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/extension-manuals/lib/current/>
(The second part about the controllers is not up to date)

I didn't install it yet, but I observe this points in the code:

<http://typo3.org/typo3temp/tx_terfe/t3xcontentcache/v/x/vx_xajax_shoutbox-0.0.1-pi1__static__setup__txt>

** I guess it should be a USER_IN object:

**  _CSS_DEFAULT_STYLE =  ...

Inline CSS. I would put it into a file and include the file in the header
like you do it with the generated javascript. Configurable path via TS setup.

TER doesn't show dependency from xajax. Either you need to add it in
ext_emconf.php or TER has a little bug.
