WebFAC and EGrades should be widely usable among different types of internet browsers (Netscape, Internet Explorer, etc.), however not all web browser versions may support a modern HTML standard set. Some EGrades functions may not work when using an older browser (e.g., AOL version 5, Netscape 4.7). Faculty who encounter difficulty using EGrades on a Mac or PC with an old web browser might want to either upgrade their browser to a newer version, or use a completely different web browser (fully tested and recommended are Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5+, Netscape 7.0+, Mozilla 1.3+, Safari 1.0+), or contact their academic department or dean’s office about using a computer on campus.
