  • WebEQ is clunky, unreliable and demands too many downloads

    When I use the test builder to create equations I can only ad one symbol, after that the menus do no work. I'm using Safri/Firefox and Chrome on my mac. This happens in all three browsers. I have the latest version of Java and I'm in blackboard 9.1. I can't believe none of these three major...

  • Spell Check causes new Firefox to crash

    Using the Spell Check feature in any text box while running the newest version of Firefox (version 15.0.1) causes the browser to crash. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

  • Flash is very small on Firefox

    Hello, I am making an interactive page by using Flash CS5, but I am running into a problem when using Firefox. It appears very small on Firefox, but it appears nice and big on Chrome. I'm trying to make it take up the whole frame that is created. I use the "Add Flash/Shockwave" button,...

  • Internet Explorer 8 vs FireFox in Blackboard 9.1

    Server: 2008 R2. Blackboard 9.1 Enterprise on Windows 7 or Windows XP. The main browser we use here on campus is IE 8. We setup Blackboard 9.1 just before the semester started, and have had a few issues with certain features and with the speed of loading pages in IE8. We had heard/read that alternate...
