The game works fine in Internet Explorer after I allow active content, but Firefox has the great page of purple. Firefox doesn't even prompt me. It just sits there. And I'm on a PC, not a Mac, btw.

well if your image folder is filled with all the necessary images,
then it is possible it has to do with your browser...I don't know programming
code but that "e" icon is for Explorer, so if you have something else,
it probably won't play at all is my guess.


I guess I need someone who can read 'code' to figure this stuff out...

I'm sorry it isn't working for you.

But Glorybe is enjoying it? That's something!

Firefox does not support some features that IE does, such as ActiveX controls. I haven't looked at it yet (don't want to download it at work) but I'm guessing that it just won't work on Firefox, and might not work on anything but IE.

Could you put it up again? It's timed out and I wanted to make another run at it.

Here you are:
http://s33.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0FD0O319C152A0JB3OB4F84UAU
so I guess we decided it can only be opened with Internet explorer,
and you have to allow 'blocked content' because it reads like a pop up (it didn't use to...this is some new level of 'protection' that I can't figure out how to avoid).

1. unzip the entire folder,
2. open folder
3. and then click on 'index'
(this is when you might get the pop up blocker)
once you allow blocked content you can begin the game....

hint:
you can match the bad guys to each other,
AND you can always match Serenity to another picture of Serenity.
But our BDHs have to be an exact match!
Good luck!

Should my browser address bar be reading C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Directory 1 for Serenity Mahjongg.zip\index.html ?

did you unzip it? Because I don't think it should be called a zip file after it has been unzipped...

Oh, it's all unzipped. I've got an images folder, dhtmlcompact, index and readme.

well if it successfully unzipped then the address should NOT say:
/Temporary Directory 1 for Serenity Mahjongg.zip/
it should just say:
/Serenity Mahjongg/

try unzipping the original download file again, but save it into a permanent file....
other than that I do not know what to suggest.
