iCHESS VIEWER:

You can use GameKnot's free interactive chess game viewer "iChess" to publish chess games on your own website or blog. Visitors will be able to walk through the game, review comments (optional) and even interact with the board by moving chess pieces right on the page. iChess viewer is written using HTML/JavaScript (Web 2.0), so it works in all modern web browsers and your visitors won't be prompted to download or install any third party software (like Adobe Flash, or ActiveX).

How to publish a chess game using iChess viewer:

1. Create a new game (will open in a new window). You can either enter all the moves by hand by moving the pieces on the board, and enter all the comments (optional) by typing them into the edit box. Or you can use "Import PGN" link (near the bottom) to load an existing PGN notation for the game.

2. Use "Edit Info" link (near the bottom) to enter/change the game information, such as the title and the player's names, as desired. Click "Update Info" link to finish editing.

3. Select the desired move to be displayed initially when the page is loaded by clicking on it in the move list, or by using "<" and ">" buttons. You can also flip the board using the "Flip" link. The game will appear on your website/blog the same way your see it prior to the next step.

4. Click on "Web/HTML" link to access the source code to be placed on your website/blog. Please make sure to select the entire source code (it can be very large if there are many comments), then copy and paste it to your website/blog. Please do not modify the code in any way, as it won't function properly.

5. Several chess games can be placed on the same page. Also, as we release new versions of iChess viewer with new features and options, it will automatically appear on your website/blog. No need to re-upload anything!
