THere were some characters in the comment that were causing the game to get displayed incorrectly. I've fixed your games and changed the code so that it can't happen again.

I'm not having difficulty viewing the game now, so I trust it has been fixed....thanks for being so quick to resolve that....

I have a question though....I've noticed that only the last move's comment shows up in the PGN. Is there anywhere where the comments for a game are archived or is that something that can be added without too much of a headache? I rarely chat, so this isn't a major issue for me. Just don't know if anyone else has mentioned this to you or if there is even any demand for it...

Thanks.

I have considered that the PGN-parser is very sensible to some special ASCII characters, and we should avoid to offend him, so to say. :oops: :roll: :wink:

Storing all comments rather than just the last one has been brought up before. It's more complicated than I think it's worth to implement.

Thanks for the response gmiller. Somehow I had a feeling that was the case...

...I have yet to be offended, but you're walking on pretty thin ice with that last comment...

It's gone from simple arrogant premature post-mordem to downright condescension.
