Temat: CourseLab - nowa wersja 2.4

FYI dla poprzedniej wersji pojawial sie problem z uzywaniem przegladarki innej niz IE, a oto odpowiedz samego autora :

-------------------
...may I say some defending words on CourseLab? In fact, it uses IE only for previewing and rendering purposes - that's why IE must be installed on the author's computer. But published modules can be played in Gecko browser family as well. And we work on other browsers too. The key is XML - it's a pity, but Opera (for example) still has problems with some XML methods

P.S. Sorry for English, I can read Polski (I'm Russian), but cannot write without errors.
