On my machine (Mac, using either Firefox or Chrome, including private mode so no plugins) the puzzle disappears when I complete the answers for 1, 3 and 9. I'm presuming my answers are correct -- the pattern they create is pretty clear and looks reasonable.
               
@HJ: I can't reproduce that error on Firefox or Chrome on Ubuntu - although I did notice I'd left some debug outputting on, which I've now removed. Perhaps that was causing the issue.

If anyone else hits this issue, please let me know.
