Paddy, any chance could you give me more detail about the flash version you just mentioned, cheers

thanks Esuhl, I tried that one but it takes me to level 1 only. I need to play through facebook which syncs with my iphone. It's there (on FB) that there is a problem.

I'm reluctant to install java now; as Paddy said, maybe I don't need it. Perhaps the problem isn't lack of java as I have just managed to view graphics on another King game. Am confused.

Maybe try a reinstall of the game? Or clearing out your browser cache

sorry if it is a dumb question but how do I do that?

I've been having the same problem. Click on download and it says something like no data received. I'll try that link when I get on PC.

Was playing around with an SBS2011 box earlier today and got a Java error message, except after the message the software appeared to download anyway.

Not knowing how you play it, but I guess in a browser? If so, search for 'clear cache <browser name>', but it usually involves going into the options and pressing a button to clear temporary files/cached files. This means the browser has to go back to the website to get a fresh copy of the game, and this can often solve problems where something downloaded improperly for some reason

Thanks Paddy, I have now downloaded Java. After your advice I did ask myself if I really needed it but unfortunately after trying to book some overpriced London theatre tickets I found that I had to have Java to look at the seating plan to see which seats were actually available to choose and book. Thanks for your advice anyway.

I think that is referring to Javascript a different kettle of fish , you really don't need Java unless you use programs that need e.g. Citrix
