How to post games Options

[hmm]

Introduction

There are 4 different posting styles (1) Just the game and nothing else, (2) the game and the arrow buttons, (3) the game, arrow buttons, and the move list, and (4) the game, arrow buttons, the move list, and the human/computer selection. Here are examples:



















// fen on move 3: rheakae1r/9/1c4hc1/p1p1p3p/6p2/9/P1P1P1P1P/1C2C1H2/9/RHEAKAER1 b - - - 1
// movefirst for this fen: blue


















// fen on move 3: rheakae1r/9/1c4hc1/p1p1p3p/6p2/9/P1P1P1P1P/1C2C1H2/9/RHEAKAER1 b - - - 1
// movefirst for this fen: blue




















// fen on move 3: rheakae1r/9/1c4hc1/p1p1p3p/6p2/9/P1P1P1P1P/1C2C1H2/9/RHEAKAER1 w - - - 1
// movefirst for this fen: blue

The first style is good if you only wish to post a game compactly (see how to make it even more compact later, or to disable interaction). The second style is if you wish to provide limitted interaction with the game. The third style if you wish to show the move list. The fourth style is useful when posting puzzles, as user can let computer to control one side when interacting with the game.

Changing the applet size

After making change to the applet, frequently you want to make the applet size a little bit bigger or smaller. The size of the applet is controlled by the tag width="..." and height="...". You can manually edit the values there.

Alternatively, you can click on the C button and obtain the new applet code. The size given in the game HTML is what the applet thinks its best size should be. Copy and past this size, or simply copy and repaste the whole game html to your post.
