Inserting playable pgn games in your posts

Post by Nick Burrows » Wed Jun 08, 2011 8:57 am

Is this possible on this forum?

I noticed that they figured it out on ChessPublishing. It would be a significant leap forward for the site :wink:

Try using http://chessflash.com/chessflash.html

But the easy solution is to use the Firefox Browser, and the Chess AddIn for Firefox -

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... r-firefox/

You can use this add-on to preview chess games in PGN format.

For Chrome users there is Chess Games Viewer. Select the text of a PGN game and right-click to get a playable version. If there is a link to a PGN file on the page, right-clicking on the link lets you view all of the games in the file.
