URGENT!: can't promote pawn!

the clock is ticking and i need to move, when i move my pawn into the last rank, nothing happens, so if i hit submit, then i'll just have a pawn in the last file? i remember playing around with analyze board when it worked for me and seeing a little pop up window when you move a pawn to the last file... i'm using firefox 2 with java updated and script enable and cookies, and pop ups allowed for this site, but still nothing!

When you click "submit" you then get the choice of which piece you would like to promote the pawn to. [I'm pretty sure anyway - I've never got that far. 🙁 ]

Have you come out the analyze feature and gone back to the real game?

Having looked at the game in question can see no reason why you can't promote pawn.

oops! i thought that you were supposed to select your promotion piece before you hit submit. boy do i feel like an idiot...
