CommonSpot 6 Resources
- Unfortunately, CommonSpot 6 only supports the following browsers. This will be upgraded in the next version of CommonSpot:
- First, which browser are you using: visit this page (link will open new window or tab)
- Internet Explorer 7 or 8 (if you upgraded to IE9, you can get the older version here)
- Firefox 3.6 (if you have upgraded to a newer Firefox, you can get the older version here)
- Contributor Training Web Site - this is where we do training, but it is available to you any time, so you can practice working on pages without breaking your web site. Anything you do here is not viewable by the general public, so take chances, break stuff, have fun, and learn.
