Known Issues
- There is a significant issue with Intel Macintosh computers, due to software update lags. Please note: As of 10/24/2006, Shockwave plugins will only work in browsers running in Rosetta mode. Conversely, Java applications will not work in browsers running Rosetta mode. The current version of Firefox will only run in Rosetta mode. So while most applications included in the Electronic Literature Collection will work on Intel Macs, users of these computers will need to switch browser configurations accordingly. The problem should be fixed when new versions of Firefox and the Shockwave plugin are released.
- As of 10/24/2006: We have been unable to run ‘open.ended.’ on Intel Macs running Java (1.4.2_09 or 1.5). CORRECTED in online version as of 4/11/2008.
- “The Set of U” and “Chemical Landscapes” are not opening on Internet Explorer. They will open in Firefox. CORRECTED in online version as of 4/11/2008.
