Seems to work on this end. Maybe a browser restart? If not, I dunno.

After enough fidgeting (opening/closing/quitting/running, with mozilla/firefox) and clearing cookies, well, now it works. I'm not sure what the problem was.

BTW, I am working on a sweet new, top secret feature, reverse-engineered from a number of fashionable, commercial chess programs, for this widget. Watch this space...

Alright, the new awesomeness is nearly ready. Once I've done a couple more days of testing, I'll unleash this on OpenChess and we'll probably have a few days of mayhem. It's working pretty well here, though...

Looking very nice...do members get to vote or have a say on the board colour?

Sorry, I was unclear. The feature isn't the board. It's the live variations.

I know the point is the live variations, but it's hard not to comment in the improved board colors and piece set :)

Hopefully it'll have a scrollbar on the right (as with our current system) so the board is visible at all times (on the sample picture I scroll down and the board disappears from view at the top).

Good job!

The intention was to leave everything as-is, but turn on the variations, which were a pain in the ass to implement, thank you very much. ;) If people hate the current "sachlich blau" that much, we can change it.

Live variations support is now live. You can toggle them on and off with the '-' key.

I am confident that there are some lingering bugs, I just haven't found them yet. Please let me know if you run into trouble.



Thanks

Pressing the '-' key doesn't do anything around here.

Okay, at this post:

http://www.open-chess.org/viewtopic.php ... 8822#p8822

I posted the game using pgnlast tags, however, I see the penultimate move highlighted (and position shown) instead of the last move.
