I have trialling the use of Google Chrome since the weekend and have noticed a couple of problems with the interface with Chess.com.  Whilst this is not really an issue for Chess.com, I thought it would be useful to get all the ideas/problems in one place so perhaps Google would take notice in moving from the Beta version.

  1. Quote functionality does not work correctly, instead of getting the poster with their quote beneath, you get a chronological listing of the posters, followed by a list of their quotes.  Whilst not a huge problem, it does make following where one quote ends and another begins, very difficult.
  2. Playing against LCP, does not seem to work at all, it would seem that the Java interface for this facility does not work.  Perhaps Google Chrome does not support Java?

Feel free to add others or correct the above as appropriate.

Apparently Tournament chess functionality does not work correctly either.

Only tournaments don't work and sometimes the page doesn't show well when you search for some stuff like themes. But quotes work fine. This is a quote from chrome.
