Support JomSocial build-in personal messaging system

To support private messaging within your component, you will have to use this code.

$jspath = JPATH_ROOT.DS.'components'.DS.'com_community';
include_once($jspath.DS.'libraries'.DS.'core.php');
include_once($jspath.DS.'libraries'.DS.'messaging.php');
// Add a onclick action to any link to send a message
// Here, we assume $usrid contain the id of the user we want to send message to
$onclick = CMessaging::getPopup($userid);
echo '<a onclick="'.$onclick.'" href="#">Send message</a>';

Use JomSocial Avatar

To get path to JS avatar, you can simply request a CUser object and call a simple getThumbAvatar function to retrieve the avatar url.

Invalid language.

You need to specify a language like this: <source lang="html4strict">...</source>
