I found your project in Google search, but these links are broken:

Can you fix it, please?

The AI could use some optimization. Not the easiest thing to do, I'm sure. But this scenario took so long to compute (it did eventually finish) Chrome asked if I wanted to kill the page: http://puu.sh/jI9Mn/44c5e96b59.png

From my understanding in the below situation I should be able to move up and down

Sorry about asking it,
but if that happens, this great game could be introduced to more people.

Thank you very much.

The following situation, being the AI's turn,

leads to this:

My guess is that the enemy pawn must go back from the newly formed deadend, tries to jump over me, but the jumping over messes up because we're on one side of the board.

Is it possible to add a clear stop to the game?
I have won against the AI by reaching the opposite row, however it was still possible to interact with the game by placing walls, and the AI continued to perform moves.
Also, I found it hard to identify whose move was currently going on.

I am asking that because I really like this game, and it has also been well-received by my friends.
I have the board version, and, as a side project I would like to make a website where a two-player version of the game would be possible.
I have a slight knowledge of PHP, so the server-side option wouldn't be too hard to do, but my javascript and ajax knowledge is almost non-existent. I think this would be an opportuninty for me to learn ajax.

If you are willing to help me out, let me know ;)

The AI was able to place an intersecting wall. Intersecting walls are not allowed in Quoridor.
