Can't insert games into post boxes, "error on page"

I do not have Java installed. Is this the reason I am not able to do so?

Depends on browser...

Use Google-Chrome java-built in no need.

Don't recommend installing java on comp unless you actually need it.

zirtoc

Are you downloading the PGN and then pasting the notation?  That should work.

CaptainPike

I'll try that, Zirtoc.

Nope, and when I try to "insert game or sequence of moves", I get a gray screen that says "chess wizard" but "error on page" with a bright red cancel button.

BB,

  • copy your notation post#4
  • choose insertgame
  • choose use pgn & tick box
  • paste notation from post#4 into small box there.
  • edit & click submit ?

delete cache/comp first (stale-pages from previous attempts)

zirtoc

Apparently the place where he is supposed to paste the PGN isn't working.  Yeah, must be a browser/java issue.
