Glitch when castling with check?

Below are two games I played, both screenshoted at the castling. Is there a glitch or something when you castle with check?(This is live chess)

 If you replay the moves in both games, you will see which one has castled with check and the one that castled without check.

I don't understand what you mean.

You can't castle to get out of check. Is that what you're asking?

Neither do I.

I played through both of those games and don't see anything unusual.

When you castle the rule is the king moves two space towards the rook and the rook goes on the other side.

So when you castle kingside your king is closer to the edge (and rook not in the middle).  When you castle queenside the rook lands on a center file.

For example:


In your first game the queenside castling gave check because the enemy king was on the open d file.  The rook was giving check, not the act of castling itself.

In the 2nd game even if the rook had gone to the e file there was a knight and pawn in the way, so castling wouldn't have given check in any case.

nevermind, i misunderstood the question. i thought you meant castling in check...which is actually a real glitch in internet chess club. it's how i got my play against computer rating to become over 4000.

Yeah, there is. If you castle long with check the box isn't big enough so displays it as 0-0-.

When I review the games I see the entire notation.  O-O-O+  I guess it's only cut short in the live game window?

Haha, well when I follow the link of course I see the whole notation... I can't see what you're seeing on your computer without a screen shot.  This is what I see:

Maybe it's the color scheme thing you or he is using.  I'm using the standard layout.

The OP sounds confused. Perhaps he believe you cannot castle once you have been in check.
