Game Animator

[Jason Solan]

Eventually i'd like to include a way to upload PDN on the forum....
until that time comes however, for any of those that would like to view pdn games online, you may copy and paste the pdn text into here:
http://usacheckers.com/show_game_form.php

This will animate the game for you.
I haven't done a ton of testing on this yet, so there may be some bugs. If there is please let me know.

P.S. This will only animate 1 game at a time.

New animator built into the forum.
If you have a valid PDN game (from checkerboard or some other program) you can now paste it in here and use the

Code: Select all

tag to show it as a game.

You can also start at a specific move by adding an = sign and specifying the move like this

Glad you like it Danny.
There's still a lot more I want to add to it. You're one of I think only 2 people to use it so far, so I haven't been in a rush to add features.

The animator is not working at all for me. Is there a newer link? Thanks.
