You connect to a server, where you then select to enter a channel (chat room).
In KDE you KSirc, you find it in the internet menu.

You can use a web based irc client, there are modules to a load of popular
portals, which you can use or rewrite to be stand alone, but as you will use
your website this will cause lag time, a user gains a lot from using IRC
directly, faster, more features.

Mozilla/SeaMonkey has a built in IRC client, so that should be easy for them
to use IRC.

If they have trouble to access your website, then they would have even less
chance of using a web based chat on your site.
