Hi,
I tried to do what you have written above.
I pasted that url onto my browser address bar, and it returned wrong result for some yahoo IDs.
My yahoo was online but it was detected as offline. Any configuration in my yahoo profile causing this ‘wrong’ result?
Please advise.
Hi Sinyo,
It will work for all Yahoo ID, not need to configurations. May be your in online and you set you online status to invisible!!!, Please check with it
Then Please try again http://opi.yahoo.com/online?u=[YahooID]&m=g&t=24
Gee thanks! this is exactly what i’m looking for the past half an hour!
