    Google's Browser Project, 'Chrome'

    Duly noted on the logout issue. However, both the x10 cpanel and facebook advanced photo uploader work fine for me. Don't know about cpanel, but photo uploader is just a java app. Some people have had trouble getting java to work with Chrome, I've had to play with my Mum's PC to get java to...

    Anyone here a member of java-forums.org?

    Hi. I'd really like to register there, but they have a weird problem with their registration process. When you submit the registration, you get an error that says something like "The string you entered does not match the verification image", except no image is displayed, not does the...

    Greetings

    Ha, we've gone in opposite directions. I grew up in Maple Ridge, but now live in Toronto. Are you familiar with Golden Ears Park? We used to live way up the only road that leads into the park, right by the south end of the park.

    a good php programming website

    I was going to say, w3schools is an good site for all kinds of web related programming, including HTML, css, javascript, and others. I use it all the time. roseindia.net is another very good site for instruction that I use a lot. Their standards of English grammar is not perfect, but it's...

    Greetings

    Awesome. I grew up in the Fraser Valley, so we've probably hiked a lot of the same spots. I've hiked in North Vancouver, Golden Ears and Garibaldi Parks, Manning Park, Squamish area, and also some hiking on the WestCoast Trail on Vancouver Island. Looking forward to your site, be sure to post...

    Google's Browser Project, 'Chrome'

    Chrome is an awesome browser. I'll never go back to Internet Explorer or Firefox. Chrome blows the doors off of both of them, both in performance and efficiency of use. Combine it with a google account, GMail, and the gmail notifier, and you are rocking. The interface takes a little getting used...

    Greetings

    I like hiking. But I don't go for the really tough climbs. Is your site focused on a particular geographical area?

    Personal Knowledge Base Software

    Greetings I'm looking for a good ( freeware or open source hopefully ) personal knowledge base system, that runs on my Windows XP PC. Something Wiki like that is easy to use. There's plenty of them out there on the net, so I'm looking for recommendations from people who have actually used the...

    Free Software Suggestions

    I'd like to suggest a program I have used for years, called Chess Assistant Light. It features the following... A very good chess database system for saving and analyzing games. The chess engine Crafty, a very strong opponent that will kick the butt of all but the best players. Other...

    My chess application on X10

    true enough about pre-programming standard opening moves to save on calculation time. However, I am of the opinion that if a person does not really understand the position that results from a particular opening sequence, then it is not really productive to spend time learning the sequence. It's...

    Thanks, but I don't understand your comment. What do you mean by "header"?

    My chess application on X10

    thanks zen-r. Sure A timer is a good idea, it could be programmed as an option, people can use it if they want. The whole point is to come up with ideas where I can learn something about programming at the same time. A biggie will be to introduce threads. If you are familiar with threads in...

    Greetings, especially to java programmers

    Greetings to all. I'm Fred. I have just joined X10 a little while ago, and I have created a web site to host my java chess application. The program functions as an opponent and also has some additional features of interest to chessplayers. This is an ongoing project for me, call it a hobby...

    My chess application on X10

    Thanks trike97, yeah you are right, the program is too easy as an opponent. I kind of doubt it will ever be competitive with other established chess programs, but you never know. That's one of the things I intend to improve over time. I have a lot of ideas for improving the playing strength, but...

    My chess application on X10

    Yeah, most people hate to read any kind of instructions or description or manual about software, that's why I put the link to the game at the top of the page. Duly noted on the graphics. The pieces are kind of lame. I'm a relative beginner at programming, but a life long chess enthusiast, and...

    My chess application on X10

    Greetings. I have written a chess program and set it up on X10. It's not particularly strong right now, but I hope to change that in the future. It's written in Sun Java. I think this probably will be interesting to programmers who wish to to work on chess programming as a hobby, this project...

    Does this motivate you?

    I think Gwatthegame.com is a pretty good page. I'm not really into this type of gaming myself, but I can see others being interested by this. Just a suggestion, but maybe a video of the action would motivate people more, perhaps a link to something posted on Youtube.

    Can others access my application files?

    Duly noted about java apps being executed by the client, not the server. I knew that, but I had not made the connection that if you want the app to execute in the client browser, that you must have permissions which also allows them to be downloaded separately. It's still not clear to me...
