Actually, that gets you halfway there. You still have to type:

/join HP:1

into the text box and hit <enter>.  The reason for this, I suppose, is
because there are many HPfGU groups: main, movie, OT, announcements,
etc., and each one puts you into its own individual chat room when you
click on the Chat link. So HP:1 puts everyone together.

As long as you get into *any* Yahoo chat room whatever, you can type
/join HP:1 into the text box, hit <enter>, and it will take you to our
chat.
