I have a strange problem. I can easily register and post on this forum, but as soon as I click on the "login and play" button to enter the games-section, the whole window just dissapears (no error-warning, nothing, it just vanishes) and I'm left back at my desktop or the last open page underneath it.
I really don't know where the problem is situated, because other sites don't have this problem, it's rather selective (always the same sites, including Boardspace.net). The problem as well in Explorer as in Mozilla Firefox (both of which I use).

Does anyone know what the problem may be and how I can fix it? Cause I really would like to play the boardgames here.

the login and play link goes to a page that includes a java applet,
intended to determine if java is working. My guess is that it is not.
Try a different browser and/or installing the latest java.

It was indeed the java-applet that created the 'error'. I did have an active java applet, but it seems that was seriously outdated (yup, I'm no wizz). After a simple update of Java, all the problems were gone...thanks again.
