Maybe on the server, but not on my browser, and therein lies the rub.

I had created the file Diagram.EOT wiht WEFT and after moved my domain two
years ago.

I build the file again with the new domain http://www.jmrw.com/ and now it
seems to work.

Can you confirm that you see figurines now ?

Thanks a lot.

Yes, but I think you miss the main point I was making when I stated "Not
in my browser" The fundamental flaw with WEFT is it assumes the user is
a Windows user on IE.

The html and javascript files are at the beginning built by chessbase and
work only under windows and Internet Explorer.

I cannot improve this.

Neither the JavaScript nor the HTML is Windows-only or IE-only, it is
the WEFT garbage. Maybe a legend that would explain that "L"=Bishop?
