  'Browser' meaning Internet explorer, Mozilla Firefox, AOL, etc..

  'Operating system' meaning Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux, etc...

  If you are having problems using the site, please run this test (http://www.cyscape.com/showbrow.aspx) and then answer these questions:

  1) what browser/version are you using? 

  2) SessionCookies? = true or false

  3) JavaScriptEnabled? = true or false 

  4) Firewall? = true or false 

  5) Width/height = (numbers)

  6) Broadband? = true or false 

  7) Platform (OS) = (win, mac, etc)

  That would REALLY help! :)

  well, to be honest, safari has big-time problems. apparently it isn't ready for the big-times yet. it isn't grown up enoughto handle some javascript stuff. i recommend you use FireFox.  you CAN use safari, but you have to use version 3.0.3 (the latest beta version) to play chess, but sometimes that doesn't work to post in the text editor (the fancy text-box you use to leave comments). go figure.  sorry :(

  Hey I'm having the same problem.  I followed your instructions and got the answers but i'm not exactly sure what to do with them.  I'm using Internet Explorer by the way.  Sorry I'm not that good with computers

  if you are using Internet Explorer and you cannot see the board then there is something really wrong! you should have JavaScript enabled. try downloading FireFox anyway - it is the best browser!

  Hey I'm having the same problem. I use Internet explorer and java is activated

  It´s really strange. How can I solving the problem? Tx

  first off, make sure that JavaSCRIPT is activated, not just Java. also, try hitting Control+R on the keyboard. that should do a hard reload of all javascript! let me know if that helps...

  OK, but with errors in the page.

  Control+R doesn't work. I can see the board if I erase the internet temporary files. But I have to make it every time that I upgrade the page.

  Help, please
