Getting Started with Node.js hosting on HostBuddy.com

Node.js is a new interpreter that allows JavaScript to be processed on the server side. It is installed and enabled (as a beta service) on the HostBuddy.com web servers. To gain the full use of node.js, please go to your Control Panel  > Websites > Manage Website (icon) > NodeJs

(MUST READ)
One of the things you must be aware of is that all *.js files will be processed by the node.js engine.  The side effect of that is some of the JavaScript on your pages may not function correctly because they are no longer being sent to the client’s browser for processing.  

The work-around to this is to enable NodeJS to certain folders only and run all your NodeJS files in that folder.  Again, you can set this up via your control panel.
