Explaining this thing is too much of a drag, so I'll leave it out. If you are interested in the code you can always do a View source :-)

If you are using MSIE on Windows 95 and if MSIE opens up maximized by default, then you may notice that the game window is not resizable. To solve it, just click the restore button on the title bar. This is an MSIE bug.

In Netscape, the buttons are not aligned. I don't think it is possible to have buttons of equal size in Netscape, but if I'm wrong, you are welcome to correct me. The only solution seems to be to use hyper-linked images instead of buttons. Maybe I'll do it...

Another problem is that, after finishing a word when you move on to the next one, the last buton you pressed will still have square brackets around indicating (wrongly) that it has been pressed. The cause is that the onClick() event of the last button clicked is trigerred when focus goes from the pop-up message to the game board. Though why it should happen, I have no idea. It's not a bug really, just a known issue ;-)

If you would like to put a Hangman button on your web page, use the following code. Although I have used 6 lines of code, you should edit it so that all 4 lines between the <FORM> and </FORM> tags come on a single line without any line breaks in between. (Or at the least , make sure that strings between double quotes don't have any line breaks in between.)

<FORM>
    <INPUT TYPE=BUTTON VALUE="HangMan" 
    onClick = "window.open( 
    'http://www.oocities.org/SiliconValley/Park/2554/hangman.html', 
    'hman','status=yes,resizable=yes,height=265,width=545');">
</FORM>
                

If you want the source code, you can download hangman.zip. Be sure to read the readme.txt after unzipping.
