The beta board code is complete!

Also, I think a good idea is if the preset board window could "remember" the preset board, so that if I want to change anything and reopens the window, I don't have to start over.

I'd hardly ever play from set piece myself, but in the interests of testing I had a quick play with the set piece board.

Generally it seems ok, though slower than the analyze board.

However, it doesn't recognize a castle move of the king, instead flashing up -

Illegal piece positioning for white king side castle
Illegal piece positioning for white queen side castle

It would be nice if it recognised the castle move of the king and automatically deslected the two boxes for allowing castling. I guess that the analyze board doesn't do this, but since the game board will be doing this is seems a bit odd.

Sorry Russ,

I can't test any more. The RHP colour scheme gives me migraines. Let me know if I can help out again in TFC.

sorry about the quality but the

On IE6sp2 I am getting the board to reset itself after clicking on a piece(the board goes blank then slowly resets all the pieces to their current position).

I am certain that my connection on this system has a little to do with it, but it is a distraction none the less.

1. There should be a clear board link so that I can setup a puzzle instead of having to remove almost all pieces to begin with.
2. The previous board where you could choose pieces from a panel on the right side of the board was much better than hav ...[text shortened]... e color.
3. It should be possible to setup a puzzle so that one king is in check to begin with.

Would it be possible to write in the en-passant rule into the analyse board feature... Instead of having to take the pawn then move that pawn down 1?

This is all built in already, and just disabled, so I will experiement with re-enabling it.

I have tried to change the colors, contrast and brightness and which only helps if I completly unbalance the colors. The problem lies when your opponent makes a move to or from a white square. If the green color was a little more bold I don't think there would be this problem

I all address this.

Any better? I am trying to keep the change fairly subtle.
