You could do an AJAX request to the server which sends out the entire output whenever a key is pressed. The other person would have a listener constantly listening for PHP responses with the message. The other side would then replace the current string buffer with the newly received one.

I don't quite understand the question... But through inference, I think you mean you type something and then click a send button, causing it to show up on the screen? For that you will need to know HTML to create the entire structure and the button itself, CSS (optional) to style the page and/or the button, and JavaScript, which allows the page to be interactive and the text to show up on the screen. PHP and JQuery are only required if you want to turn this into a front end (HTML, CSS, JS) and back end (PHP, JQuery) page with a database. Hope this helped.

If I understood you, you should take a look at something like keypress events
