I can access my GAMEKNOT chess games using my mobile phone.

Why not here? Why is it so difficult to write the code ?

Thanks for your reply. The site doesnt work on my mobile. I thought perhaps the developers could shed some light on why its so difficult to code.

It's not difficult to code. The RHP team have done a very good job of it in my opinion.

The problem is more than likely that you've got a crappy old phone with a rubbish browser that can't render the code properly.

Does something that runs Opera mobile (Motorola Q9h) have the right stuff as well?

And must you use http:/mobile.redhotpawn.com for this all to work?

Maybe I need to ask a more direct question.

Is it possible for you using operamini to access and make moves of any of the mirror sites like www.chessatwork.com and www.redhotpawn.com, or do you use http://mobileredhotpawn.com.

If you do connect using http://mobileredhotpawn.com. could you do me a favor and try to connect to www.redhotpawn.com, after making changes to your profile settings and change the browser to legacy and mobile and board size to micro.

If you can still move your pieces then my problem may be opera mobile or something else. Thanks in advance because it would save me at least a couple of hours round trip time to go the the phone store and try the http://mobileredhotpawn.com method

Anyway. Tried the http://mobile.redhotpawn.com site on the Motorola Q9 today, still could not get the pieces to move, but thumbs up for the way you can navigate around the site. The Q9's has an opera mobile browser but just to be sure we downloaded and installed an operamini4 browser and this time everything but the board appeared. For an active game it showed myself and my opponent, our ratings and our flags and immediately beneath that the submit move button.

Has anyone out there managed to make this work on a Motorola product that runs opera mobile? Anyone?
