socket.io client to client messaging

html, node.js, socket.io, sockets

Solution

Try

users.push(socket); // without .sessionId

for (var u in users)    {
   // users[u] is now the socket
   console.log(users[u].id);
   users[u].emit('message', { msg: 'New User Connected succesfully' });
}

Problem

I'm having trouble getting basic client to client (or really client->server->client) working with socket.io. Heres the code I have right now: ``` io.sockets.on('connection', function (socket) { users.push(socket.sessionId); for(userID in users) { console.log(userID); io.sockets.socket(userID).emit('message', { msg: 'New User Connected succesfully' }); } socket.emit('message', { msg: 'Connected succesfully' }); socket.on('my other event', function (data) { console.log(data); }); }); ``` From my understanding, that should send the new user message to every connected user (individually, since i want to do actual individual messages later). Instead, I only get the 'connected successfully' message at the end. I don't get any errors or other negative indicators from my server or client. Any ideas of why `io.sockets.socket(userID).emit()` doesn't work or what to use in its place?
