I have updated the java software on my computer and i am still experiencing problems viewing projects.
projects that worked perfectly well in scratch 1.2 do not seem to be working properly.
such as like...http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/forest/128057
The pen and stamping part of project does not function online and the backgrounds which work on broadcast and recieve change.. does not seem to change etc..
variables associated with another part of the project do work..
anyway whatever is not working completely wrecks the project..
projects recently done in scratch 1.3 do not also seem to be working properly online.
eg..sound chaos.. the mouse sensor which should activate moving sprites to play random sounds and briefly alter brightness of moving objects does not work.
dr who from scratch-gallifrey... it has problems loading although it is well under 10mb in duration and uses No variables.. just broadcasts..
loading bar gets three quarters across and then just stalls..
i have also got logged off the website intermidently but that was before updating java..etc..
any help in solving the problems would be useful.

Forest, I experimented with your code only to find that it was the broadcast that wasn't working correctly. The Scratch software recognizes numeric broadcast names like '1' but the Java applet player does not seem to.
We'll look into this, but in the meantime try naming your broad casts

Another area where the Java player acts differently is in costume names. You can not switch to a costume name that is numeric in the Java player but you can in Scratch.
