London FIDE grand prix: live games for mobiles without flash

The FIDE grand prix tournament in London features 12 top world players, including former world championship challengers GM Boris Gelfand and GM Veselin Topalov, competing from September 20th till October 4th.

pgn4web is used for live games broadcast, providing special pages for mobile devices (such as android phones and tablets, the iphone and the ipad) that are typically unable to use the alternative viewer based on the flash technology: a live page with multiple boards and a live fullscreen page.

See general instructions how to use pgn4web to replace a well known live chess broadcast client based on the adobe flash technology and therefore not supported by mobile devices such as android phones and tablets, the iphone and the ipad.
