Added October 31, 2006 advisory
to all MTO clients on Internet Explorer 7: Map viewers that MTO and several
other government services use are not currently compatible with this
recently released Internet Explorer 7 (IE7). Problems with the map will
therefore occur if you use Internet Explorer 7 with MTO. Thus, if you double
click on a tenure in MapPlace to link to the MTO Viewer report, then click
View Tenure to link to the MTO Map Viewer, you will get an Unsupported
Browser message if using IE7. |
