if you are talking about 5. dxc6 it is called en passant and is a legal move.  check the rules under the learn tab at the top.

Now i'm feeling noob. Thx for informing me

Actually it started out as a bug and instead of fixing it they just made up a name for it.

The game designer's universal maxim: It's not a bug, it's a feature!

I was fortunate to learn that move at a young age.  By the way though, if you want to specify a point in a game, you should probably list the move number instead of "a couple moves back", since your game has progressed considerably in this time.
