What Internet Browsers Should I Use With Canvas?

The latest versions of Firefox, Chrome, and Safari are all good choices for working in Canvas.

Firefox is the officially recommended browser for accessing Canvas and all Richland computers have Firefox installed.

Download Mozilla Firefox

In addition, it's not a bad idea to have another recommended browser installed on your personal computer. Many times problems you experience online can be fixed by switching to a different browser.

Download Google Chrome
Download Safari

I really like Internet Explorer. Why can't I use it with Canvas?

As of March 30, 2013, Canvas will no longer support Internet Explorer 8. You will see a warning notification if you use this unsupported browser.

You will likely run into problems with content not working right and/or showing up when using Internet Explorer. Firefox really is your best bet when using Canvas.

Also, every time you click a link within Internet Explorer, you will see this pop-up window:

You will need to select the NO option each time this pop-up window appears.
