Drax946 had an idea to add ECO information to the game page.
There are some limitations and some problems, but the first pass of this has been added to the game.user.js userscript.
Transpositions seem to be a problem, especially when en passant becomes a consideration. I'm just pattern matching the FEN so there are no "smarts" in the program at this point.
If anyone knows a site that makes openings and/or games available through a Web service, let me know.

Changed the implementation so that it ignores the 'en passant' but from the FEN. Hopefully this will make picking up transpositions better. Also, changed it a bit so that it doesn't hit my ISP's server so hard.

It seems to bring up some very wierd opening names, which I'm sure arn't the proper names, but more slang names. Is there anyway for you to correct this so that is shows the correct opening names?
