Title: Corrupted game history (on xperia)
Post by Hippo on Jan 31st, 2011, 7:19am
I am trying to use xperia for postal games in cases no deep analysis is needed. But in most of games the game history becomes corrupted and that remains for the rest of the game. Sometimes a letter is missing causing unfinished steps, missing space means connected steps ... so missing at least one of them.
Sometimes the problem is corrected by further play as a stone walks through the place of error, but sometimes even the turn numbering becomes wrong and the side to move is detected wrongly. So what is the question:

Could you imagine what causes the list corruption?
... I am using Opera Mobile 10 beta, javascript client
Is it Opera Mobile problem?

Examples:
In my postal against woh 4s eg4eHg3n Hg4n eh4w ... missing space (creates third gold horse)
against Ron 4s(again) rh8shh6s rh7s ee3n
The missing space at exactly the same place!
against hanzack 4s(again!) ee6see5s ee4e ef4e
than 10g Hf5w Hew Hd5s Hd4s (missing 5)
than 15s h5w rg5s hd6e he6s (missing r)
next 20s cd4w cc4s cce Rc2n Rc3x (missing 3)
and 26g a4n Ca5n rb5w Ra1n (missing C)
And finally omar 4s(again) de7eef5s cf6s hh7s
10g mg5e Efe Hg3w Hg4s
15s e3n cf3x hd4w hc4w ee4w
20s hbn Ca3e Cb3e Cc3x hb4s (different number of captures/steps so problem position shifted?)
... no problem till
30s rc7w rb7s Rb2s e3s


Seems the distances between missed characters are constant.

P.S.: I have instaled Opera11 to the laptop just to test there is no problem in it.

I am assuming this is with the JavaScript client. Most likely some features of JavaScript are implemented different on this device. For now I can only support the JavaScript client in FireFox and Chrome on desktops and notebooks.
