Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

words containing X, characters containing X: great feature!

that looks like a very useful improvement to the popups, thank you!

Yeah, Scott has done some great work in making those lists quicker, adding paging to them, and making them awesome. And the "Characters containing X" list is new, although a long time coming. This'll be really helpful when seeing which components are useful to learn, I think.

I agree, "Words Containing" and "Characters Containing" are absolutely awesome, a huge leap from what you had before. Particularly awesome: "Next", which is super fast for me. You guys really did a great job on this one...

Thanks, that list loading system I first set up for the My Words page (called a Lazy List because it loads more only when you need it, but a little bit ahead of time so it moves forward quickly) and I liked it so much I'm using it for pretty much everything across the site. It's the same code used for the forum topics, most of the sub pages in My Words, the pages for published and custom lists, and now the word popup.
