Live chess on Camino browser

Sort:

The live chess function doesn't seem to work on the Camino web browser (http://caminobrowser.org). Any help here?

I would think that the Chess.com developers would like their site to function on as many different browsers as possible -- especially if the popularity of Camino continues to grow.

Half a brain? Here's some food for thought -->

"The survey by AptiQuant, a Vancouver-based Web consulting company, gave more than 100,000 participants an IQ test, while monitoring which browser they used to take the test.

The result? Internet Explorer users scored lower than average, while Chrome, Firefox and Safari users were slightly above average.

And users of the more obscure Camino and Opera browsers, as well as those using Explorer with Chrome Frame (a plug-in designed to let users view emerging HTML5 content), had what AptiQuaint called 'exceptionally higher' IQ levels."

Too bad it was a hoax:

It's OK if you got sucked in by it though -- probably doesn't say anything about your IQ.

Maybe because everyone uses or has heard of IE. But only the nerds who hunt down the smaller browsers stay there because of the different benefits. Just my two cents.

Hoax? Maybe. However, I'm more apt to believe CNN over Nodeju.com.

Issue still remains: I'd like to be able to use Chess.com on Camino -- judge me how you will. :)

Considering it has so few posts, this is a great thread.
