Connect Four is a positional board game (similar to Tic-Tac-Toe.)
Players take turns in occupying positions on the board.
The player that occupies four positions in a row wins the game.
The board is vertical.
Hence, only the lowest position of a column can be occupied.
Some random positions are removed before starting a game
to produce different games.
If your browser refuses to play the game, you can execute

javaws http://www.xxx.yyy.zzz/~antoy/private/C4-dir/connect4.jnlp
Replace www.xxx.yyy.zzz with the appropriate server name.
The program is signed and certified and the execution sandboxed.
