i was playing live chess fine up until about 3 days ago.  now only a blank board comes up.  any clues??

Which browser were you using ?

firefox

If you're seeing a blank board, how are you able to play in live chess in the game i'm observing you in now against geoph ?

or is this now working for you?

no, still blank.  i've played on other computers.

tossed, if its working for you on other computers, but not on your own then we need to look at whats on yours compared to the others you used thats different.

granted.  what could it be?  it worked fine always up till 5 or so days ago.  i also use safari some  --  same empty board now.

Whats changed on your computer since it last worked?

Whats on your computer that isn't on the others you use ?

nothing's changed.  it's an older mac laptop.  nothing great but i don't see why if it worked before it would just stop.

So no one has a clue??  i can't play live chess anymore cause blank board
