Check Your Browser in WebCT

In many versions of WebCT, you can check your browser to ensure that it is configured correctly.

  1. Go to the website where you log into WebCT.
  2. Before and after logging in, look for a Check Browser link, in the top right corner of the browser window.
  3. Click the Check Browser link to start the Browser Checker.

Examples of Check Browser links:
