Description of pawn move does not use standard terminology.
A pawn does not make a 'double-step' move, it moves 2 squares.

I came across this page because another page was trying to link to it with a bad link. While here, I noticed that it looked a mess with its Javascript graphics that used a separate image for each space. I replaced these with single images for each diagram, I edited the text, added new questions, and fixed the formatting so that the three cells in each table row will display vertically on mobile devices but still display horizontally on desktops.

I noticed the old diagram positions started from illegal positions. I fixed that by creating new diagrams that use legal positions.

One reason to format a page for mobile first is that browsers on old mobile devices cannot be updated as easily as browsers on desktops, leaving some mobile browsers without the functionality of the most up-to-date browers. So, if the default formatting is suitable from a mobile device, it will look right even if that browsers is not up-todate. With that in mind, I replaced the tables used to display three diagrams in a row with flexboxes that will display them in a row only on browsers with up-to-date flexbox capability and a wide-enough screen to display them in a row. On older browsers or on smaller devices, it will display them in a column.
