Removed ‘Replay’ button from Chess Publisher
By admin on Sep 16, 2007 in Updates
One problem with Chess Publisher is the need to press the ‘Replay Game‘ button first. I don’t know about you but I find that quite irritating. People would normally just try to press the play [>] button and expect the pieces to move.
So, I’ve removed the the ‘Replay Game’ button to make it more “user friendly”.
Another change is that if the move text is very long it will now ‘wrap under’ the board. In the older version the space under the diagram is just blank.
Take a look:
Tell me what you think.

I experience this as a major improvement as mentioned on http://chessteaching.blogspot.com on which some alternatives to publish chess games on a blogsite are compared.

Hi!
I use youe gorgeous pgn editor in my blog, but today i have a problem with this pgn in 1 and 2 version of your editor:
[Event “Sociale”]
[Site “Monza”]
[Date “2007.??.??”]
[Round “3″]
[White “xxxxx”]
[Black “xxxxxx”]
[Result “1-0″]
[ECO “B20″]

Qb6 36.Be3 Qb5 37.Bc5 Rf7 38.Qg3 Qc6 39.Kd2 b6 40.Nf3 Rxf3 41.Qxf3
Rxe1 42.Qf7+ Kc8 43.Kxe1 bxc5 44.Qxg6 cxb4 45.Qg8+ Kb7 46.Qf7+
Kb6 47.g6 Qc3+ 48.Kf1 Qh3+ 49.Ke2 Qg4+ 50.Ke1 Qg1+ 51.Kd2 Qd4+
52.Ke2 Qg4+ 53.Kf2 Qh4+ 54.Kf3 Qe4+ 55.Kg3 Qe3+ 56.Kg4 Qg1+ 57.Kf4
Qh2+ 58.Kg5 e5 59.g7 Qg2+ 60.Kf6 Qf2+ 61.Ke6 Qxc2 62.g8Q b3 63.Qd8+
Kb5 64.Qb7+ Kc4 65.Qdxd5+ Kc3 66.Qxe5+ Kd2 67.Qed5+ Kc1 68.Qbxb3
Qe2+ 69.Kd6 Qh2+ 70.Kc6 Qh6+ 71.Qd6 Qh1+ 72.Qbd5 1-0
I solved problem n°1 i.e. 62.g8Q writing g8=Q but then seems it doesn’t understand that white as 2 queens(!) and start make errors in replaying moves.
Where am i wrong?
Thanks!
Best regards
