text-only RHP?

This may have been mentioned somewhere before.....

I'm currently in India doing some field research at a university. Unfortuantely for me, the university network will not allow me to access certain sites, or parts of sites. (I think it has something to do with java, or other plug-ins that sites may run). I can access the forums of RHP, but not any of the games. I was wondering of there is any text-only or low-res version of RHP available to use without the need for any fancy plug-ins. This way I can move more regularly and not have to dash off to internet cafes every other day.

Just a thought

RHP does not use any "external" technology like JAVA. But one core-part of this site is the wonderful JavaScript that is used in the playchesspages and others. It is absolutely neccesary to play here. And every browser should be able to let you use it - some browsers may let you trun it off. Check your browser and your settings and preferences.
The text-only version is a nice idea (Russ has made some xml ready to let you program your own interface), but in a textonly version how would you like to submit your moves? (yes, perhaps by sending "c2c4"...)

Russ did that with Chris too 🙂 You can download an unregistered version of "Rival" here 🙂 It's very cool!

I used Delphi. It wasn't web enabled. Or very good...

Have you tried the sister sites (chessatwork.com, timeforchess.com). Chessatwork has less graphics and is more "porn blocking and big brother watching" firewall friendly. There's were I play from work. They are just mirror images of this site with a slightly different interface.
