Integrating VoIP on PHP site

Question

Hello there. I was wondering if it was possible to have a chatting feature on my site(VOICE NOT TEXT) is this possible on a php enabled server(GoDaddy) or do i need like a flash type server. Also if it will work how can i start. Thanks So Much!!!

You will need a "flash type server" such as Flash Media Server, Wowza or Red5. You can still have your site written in PHP to handle functionality such as user registration, logins, displaying a list of available chat rooms, etc... but when it comes to transmitting and rebroadcasting voice, you'll need to have your flash app connect to a media server.
