Hand converter.

[Vinnie]

Am I doing something wrong with the hand converter or is it just not working now? I tried to cut and paste a hand into it and it give me an error on the page. Hand is a Party Poker hand.

[JDErickson]

I know you have to use Internet Explorer. It doesn't work with Mozilla

[chesspain]

I still can't get it to work...and I use IE

[Vinnie]

I'm using IE as well.

[Warik]

I discovered the bug a few days ago and e-mailed the hoster of the converter in hope that he'd fix it.

#1) You absolutely have to use IE. It doesn't work in Mozilla or Netscape for some strange reason.

#2) If a would-be blind payer sits out during the hand, you'll hit the bug.

Run these two hands:

The first one should not work, the second should.

They are the exact same hand, except this line is removed: "S5747 is sitting out." from the second one.

Remove those "is sitting outs..." and you'll be OK.

[chesspain]

If life were only this easy...it doesn't work even when both blinds are playing.

[JDErickson]

Not sure if this will help:

Check your VBScript settings.

Post the hand here and I will play with it and see if I can find anything else wrong. I'm sure the program is not flawless.

We have ZoneAlarm on our new computer. It wouldn't surprise me if the VBSscript is disabled. I can try to fiddle with it.
