Very nice. It looks great and seems really easy and intuitive to use.
A few suggestions:
1. When playing against the AI (on Chrome/Vista) after a move the piece briefly stays where I put it (not centred on the square; and with two pieces visible if I capture the opponent's piece). It only properly completes the move once the AI has moved.
2. When I promote a pawn it asks me to choose from a set of pieces which are black, even though I'm playing white. Might be nice to use piece icons of the same colour as the player.
3. Are there any open source AI players you could use? I'd be tempted to come back if there were some reasonable ones, but the current AI player is no challenge, even for a real amateur player like me.
thanks for the ideas and suggestions jonp. I asked Oscar Toledo (http://nanochess.110mb.com) permission for use of his javascript ai (a.k.a 1k chess) yesterday, guess I'll use a fork of his work
