Hi

Great idea. I tried your site with both Safari and Firefox; both browsers failed to load the applet.

**Boris** · 11-02-2010, 01:07 PM

I couldn't load it either, but that could be due to corporate firewall.

Believe it or not, it works (despite initial error mesage) with IE.

Although I am a Firefox fan, at work I only have IE.

Yes, it is nice. There is a tactics web site that works so that after you answer one puzzle, another one comes up, so it should not be too hard to set this feature up.

Worked on Firefox

Using an iMac, I found it works with Firefox, Opera, iCab, Sunrise and Safari but not with Google Chrome beta.

Hello!

I've implemented a Glicko ELO rating system computed against tactics exercises. The system need time to arrange and players that solve the exercises. Now all registered player have 1500 ELO. The registration is free.
