Configure your browser for maximum viewing. In order to view the complete content of many of our resources, you must set the options on Internet Explorer or Netscape to enable JavaScript and auto load images. Many of our resources will allow you to create marked lists and perform other interactive functions that will not be possible if Java Scripting is turned off. Other resources cannot be viewed in a text-only format, and will not be usable if you have turned off the image auto loading function. Follow the steps below to ensure that your browser is properly configured. This is an action that you will only have to take once.
