It sounds like your web browser isn't handling the new javascript correctly. What browser are you using? Is it up to date?

I do the weekday puzzles on my work computer (to warm up my brain...) and we have Chrome and IE11 - I tried both with the same result.  It's very hard to get updated software here so I might have to just do them at home.  Thanks for the reply!

That's odd - both of those browsers should work fine (I tested with IE9 and it was fine). I suspect something else must be going on.

Something you could try in either browser - push the f12 key on your keyboard before you load a puzzle, and select the "console" tab. Now if there are any unexpected errors when the puzzle loads, it should put them there.

Here's what I got:

puzzle.php:1 GET https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.2.min.js net::ERR_INSECURE_RESPONSE
puzzle.php:2 Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined(anonymous function) @ puzzle.php:2

Thanks for that - give it another try now; hopefully that's sorted it...

Hi,

New solver works great! good work...

Found a small problem. Clicking 'solution' against an archive puzzle doesn't display any lines...

Thanks for pointing that out - it should be working again now.
