I recently found the squeakland site and thought it would be neat to let my kids try it out. Unfortunately, when I went into the tutorials, I ran into problems on the background and the first (painting) tutorial. I'm wondering if there is a known problem running the Squeak plug-in on IE6 on Win XP, or perhaps the tutorials aren't quite ready.
In the case of the background, the right edge of the text is cut off (I'd guess about 3-5 characters worth) making it hard to read the article. Also, if I left click on the text, then use the mouse scroll wheel (expecting to scroll down in the text), the pictures jump from the right to the left side, covering the text.
In the case of the painting etoy, after escaping the browser and clicking on the paintbrush icon as directed on page 1, a transparent skin covers the entire screen, not just the working area. If I try to click on the 'page' buttons, I end up painting on them instead. I can only get rid of the skin by choosing 'keep' on the palette. I can't follow the rest of the tutorial, because the paint operation isn't staying within the workarea.
Is this something that should be working? Thanks,
