Three loners of four. I'd say that makes it pretty tough. 20.

Phil, been swimming through the waters of my life, been enjoying your posts. Nice to hear how rest of the world perceives Americans - even if it's not positive, it's important information.

ummm, in what universe was that an easy?

Difficulty score 26. No green. HK it's an easy in the universe of technical definitions.

gman: here is an auto green script--

javascript:var kMax=1;for(i=1;i<10;i++){var lMax=1;if(i==kMax)kMax+=3;for(j=1;j<10;j++){i\nf(j==lMax)lMax+=3;if(grid[i][j].value==''){Cl\nearTinySquares(i,j);for(k=1;k<10;k++)grid[i][\nj]['mini'][k]=1;for(k=1;k<10;k++){var tmp=grid[i][k].value;if(tmp!='')grid[i][j]['m\nini'][tmp]=0;tmp=grid[k][j].value;if(tmp!='')\ngrid[i][j]['mini'][tmp]=0}for(k=kMax-3;k<kMax\n;k++){for(l=lMax-3;l<lMax;l++){var tmp=grid[k][l].value;if(tmp!='')grid[i][j]['m\nini'][tmp]=0}}}}}PopulatePuzzle(grid);

You need to go through it and remove all \n sequences. The Iron Sudoku Chatterbox tries to add linefeed characters to break up long lines. They show up as \n.

How do you use the script once you've removed all the \n?

The best thing is to make a bookmark out of it. Put the script sans \n in the URL field of the bookmark.

I am probably not doing the correct thing. I chose a puzzle form the archives, then added a / after the url, pasted the script after that and hit enter. The first time I did it I hgot a message telling me it was forbidden 403. I've tried again since, and absolutely nothing happens.

Replace the URL with the script, don't append it to the current URL!

But that probably won't work either. Newer browsers make it hard to inject javascript from the URL field of the browser for security reasons. Try making a bookmark out of it. Then when you have an Iron Sudoku puzzle open click on the bookmark.

Using Google chrome, it just takes me to a google search if I replace the url or do the book ark thing. Back to inserting greens by hand for me, but thanks for trying to help.

Make sure that javascript: is the first thing in the URL field. As a security precaution most browsers strip out the javascript specifier from cut and paste strings.

ah, that works, thank you very much

Finally, Finished the puzzle from January 18th...

I put the auto-green script on my website. Check my profile for the URL. This auto-green script is self contained, meaning it won't stop working if my website goes offline.

drwho's auto-green is wonderful.

dgondda in Chrome, hit F12, click the console tab when the developer tools pop up, in the console copy and paste the greens code that drwho posted

you do that after you've loaded a puzzle (archived or new)
