Short Description
The Solitaire Home Page is your destination for building and playing DHTML-based solitaire games.

Long Description

Remember that frighteningly addictive Windows game that almost cost you your first job? Well, Solitaire comes in many flavours other than the classic Klondike game which came with Windows and the more recent Freecell. There are literally thousands of variations of the game invented by people from all over the world, who, like this author, have nothing better to do with their time:-).

The Solitaire Home Page uses a JScript library that enables you to quickly design your own version of the game and publish it on a web page so that all your friends may see and marvel at your idiocy. It works only with IE4 and higher browsers. The library supports most of the features found in commercial Solitaire games.

Rajeev has also created almost a dozen versions of Solitaire that you can play on or off-line.

Oops I should have tested a bit before submitting. :) That was really messed up. Anyway.

So Scott, when will there be a "Edit your comment" for the resources? :)

Ok I was bored and I fixed the Klondike script to deal 3 cards at a time like Windows' "Solitaire". :) Thought I'd share even though that wasn't a tough change...

Sonicca, have you checked that the filenames are correct? I had the same problem, then I found out that the image files were all in uppercase when they needed to be in lowercase. I renames them, re-uploaded them, it worked, easy.

Okay, I downloaded the library and leant how to make my own games.... that was all good..... then when I went to upload the games and all the associated files to my own website, it wouldn't work! The page loaded, the background, card deck, X and O images loaded, but the rest wouldn't load. Any ideas why?

Besides that, the library is really really good.
