A free (for personal use) browser extension called 'IE Tab' can be added to Chrome or to Firefox in Windows to allow Internet Explorer components to support displaying and running web pages in a tab insideChrome or Firefox. This enables you to display web pages that use Microsoft Silverlight (such as CTI Navigator Web), Microsoft Sharepoint or ActiveX controls within your Chrome or Firefox browser, even if the browser itself does not correctly load Silverlight or ActiveX Controls. The IE Tab also includes an 'Auto URL' site filter that allows you to specify which web addresses should always be opened in an IE Tab in the browser. For optimal convenience, set IE Tab to always open your MLS website for CTI Navigator Web in Chrome or Firefox.
Although it does not open the IE browser per se, IE Tab uses the IE browser control core 'rendering engine' built into Windows to support core IE functions within other browsers. Therefore, to ensure full security when using IE Tab, the latest version of Internet Explorer should be installed in Windows on your computer and it should be kept up-to-date with the latest security patches from Microsoft. (Automatic Windows updates usually include updates to Internet Explorer since the IE control core is an integral component of Internet connectivity in Windows.)
If Silverlight fails to load, crashes frequently or fails to properly display or print from all CTI Navigator Web pages in Chrome or Firefox in Windows, install one of these IE Tab extensions appropriate for your browser, and activate the IE Tab extension when running CTI Navigator Web. Currently there is no IE Tab for any Mac browser. New update mac.
To print reports from CTI Navigator II in Firefox, either print using Firefox's PDF viewer (recommended), or install and run IE Tab 2 in your Firefox.
