Database Integration
Can I populate the Beam code using a database?
Yes, you can use the Beam code in whatever way you see fit. We have designed the beam code block to accept variables from most scripting languages used on the net today.

What is the best way to build the message string?
Build the message string outside the javascript codeblock and then echo out the string inside the codeblock - its cleaner and conceptually easier. (Note: if using PHP you must use end line code with "\n" to insert new lines in message NB: must use double quotes).
What is the best way to build pages with multiple Beams?
For sites that have multiple Beams on one page, we have a version of the code block that will reduce the loading time. Below is an example of what this version of the
Beam code looks like:
The only difference between standard beam code and this version is that the <script>
</script> tags are only used ONCE at the bottom of the page. This means the Beam server is only queried once (after all page content has successfully loaded).
