Has anyone else had trouble getting Redhotpawn.com-generated PGN files to work with this plugin or the related site http://www.chesspastebin.com?

PGN files from other sites or programs seem to work fine for me.

No one can edit the thread title. I say the creator of the thread should be able to do the edit. Please, Russ, read this!

RHP seems to use a strange mix of PGN and Long Algebraic. The parser probably chokes on moves like Ra4a5,

This ought to be fixed, no?

Yes, by that I mean the developers of jsPGNViwer should fix their parser since both systems are technically valid.
