new SGF viewer

I've created a new SGF viewer to replace the old broken Jave-based one. This one should be much light-weight, look better and provide additional functions. This is now the default SGF viewer on Go4Go. But one can still choose to switch to the Eidogo player which is slightly more portable on old computers.

Click the ' Diagram code ' link below the board to generate a text representation of the current board position. This can be copy/paste into any posts on Go4Go (or other compatible sites) when discussing board positions.

Edit: uh, fail. Should I use a certain tag to show the image? Some helps please.

Re: Diagram code

You need to enclose the code by [ diagram ] and [ /diagram ] (please remove the extra white space when actually using it. Different website may use different tags so they are not generated.

I've used the new viewer for

I've used the new viewer for a few days. It is much better than Eidogo player - more suitable for mobile phone. However, it is just disappeared, showing blank screen in mobile phone. I'm using Windows phone to see the game review. Could you investigate the issue?

detail needed

Sorry I do not own a Windows phone so I have no idea what the problem is. However if you can let me know the exact version of your operating system and browser, I might be able to do some investigation. I suppose your Windows phone runs some version of Internet Explorer which might require some special coding in order to run the Go board application properly.

Re: new SGF viewer

It is currently not open for two reasons: (1) the code was put together very quickly in a few days. I haven't got a chance to improve its quality. (2) it contains logic to protect the SGF data which is very important for a site like Go4Go (to prevent mass downloading by robot programs). An open version needs to handle the SGF input differently. I will definitely consider releasing an open version in the future for embedding Go games in any website.
