It is not only failing to make holes on mobile browsers, but it also doesn't work on my PC. It appears the change I made in the general script to allow triple capture of the Lion Dog in the large Shogi variants collides with the way I implemented the creation of holes on the applet page. (With as a consequence that it tries to interpret the dropping of a hole as a triple capture for which it has to generate a move, which then unfortunately involves off-board squares that make it crash.)

I tried to fix it, but it seems any editing I do of this page destroys the operation of the applet: a lot of pieces, including the Kings, suddenly disappear from the selection list. So I reinstated the old version now. So that at least the applet should work as before, albeit still without the possibility to create holes. I will think on whether I can solve this hole-creation problem in the general script for interactive diagrams, without editing the applet page.
