Please help.
I am about to get rid of the old PC and replace it with a Mac due to pressure from the wife.
I'm assuming that I will still be able to use this site to play chess but not certain.
Are there any Mac users out there that can reassure me that I will still be able to use this site?

I have an apple and it works for me

Yes, this site works fine with Macs. I can attest to this from personal experience. I have an eMac running OSX and everything works FINE! Furthermore, I would like to congratulate you on having the courage and foresight to get rid of your infernal PC and adopt a Mac. Death to Bill Gates! When the revolution comes, you will be amongst the chosen few. Solidarity, comrade!

Opera doesn't show the mini-board pop-ups, which are quite handy BTW.

I use Opera and I'm not sure which "mini-board pop-ups" you are referring to. I certainly get at least some "mini-board pop-ups". For example the ones that pop up when you click the Info link in "My Games" show up fine for me with both Opera 6.x and 7.x. Did you mean the Analyze Board? That works for me too. Which "mini-board pop-ups" don't work for you?

The only thing I have found on this site that is not perfect in Opera is the Message Log and I have posted a fix for that.

Hi PRN,

I use Opera also. 7.2 and 7.5. Everything seems to work fine, but then again if I'm not getting certain mini-boards I wouldn't know. I do get the same one's you get though.

What's wrong with the message log?

Thanks!

Works great...but do yourself a favor and get stop using Internet Explorer when you get the Mac.......Safari (apples browser) works better.....and Microsoft has announced that they won't make any more IE for Mac versions in the future.

I'm running a Mac G4 with Firefox browser. Everything's just great.

As far as I can tell, I get all the mini-boards. I'd like to know whether piderman gets some of them or none and if some, then which ones don't work.

On the message log, it's quicker to take a look at my post called "Fix for odd formatting of message log" from June 15 in this forum. It's about how different browsers treat tables having multiple colums with width="100%" and empty columns.

I run an iMac with Safari and RHP works beautifully, except for when I click 'info' in 'My Games', the timeout bars in the mini-boards distort and some of the background text shows through.

Otherwise, welcome to getting a splendidly powerful computer!

I also run a Mac with Safari and the only quirk I have noticed is that the "back to top" links on the forum pages do not work.

Tested on a 12" powerbook G4, with Safari, Firefox 0.7, 0.8 and 0.9 and Camino. Works great on 'em all.

Roland,

Once this new release goes live, can you have a little surf around the site and check to see if it everything is still OK on Macs.

Thanks.
