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.

Getting a error when I don't know a character

If I don't know a character and hit enter with a blank box(below where it says click to type) , it says its correct.

The idea is that if people don't want to type, they can enter an empty prompt to use it like a flashcard. And since you're right most of the time, and the "forgot" feedback is slightly unpleasant, you want the default to be "got it".

If you want to reveal the answer while marking it wrong, you can press the correct button or the down arrow.

Is there any way to change the default to wrong ?

Nah, there's no preference for this--that would be an unhelpful clutter of a preference for almost everyone using it.
