Re: Canadian Chess Blogs

I did another update of the Canadian Chess Blogs. See the original post in the thread.

The Grande Prairie Chess Club blog features nicely done bio details of
Phil Haley and Tim Pradzinski's game(Rd.6) vs Phil Haley, fully annotated
by Tim Pradzinski. http://www.gpchessclub.com/canadianopen2009blog


I like the Chess Manitoba blogspot site very much. It features interactive
"Monroi" diagrams;ie games can be replayed right there. How is that done? The site is maintained by Tony Boron.

"Monroi" diagrams;ie games can be replayed right there. How is that done?

"Embed" feature which is found below the Monroi diagram gives the HTML code:

<!-- Copy & Paste this code where you want the chess board to appear in your page's HTML Source.-->
<iframe src="http://monroi.com/watch/embed.php?game_id=54048" width="405" height="490" border=0 scrolling=no style="border:0px solid #000;"></iframe>

id=54048 is the game ID

You are correct, sir ! (Just arrived home from the tourney (5-day schedule !:)) - flew out soon after my game.
