Opening a New Window in Blackboard
It is sometimes easier to deal with a document (such as an Excel spreadsheet or a PowerPoint presentation) in a new window. To open your document in a new window, please follow the steps below.
-
Under "Courses in which you are participating," click the link of the desired course.
-
Right-click on the desired document you wish to open in a new window.
Note to Internet Explorer users: You may get an "Access Denied" error in some versions of the browser.
-
A menu will appear. Click "Open Link in New Window" (this text may vary depending on your browser).
-
Your document will now be loaded in a new browser window.
Depending on which web browser you're using, and what kind of document you are trying to work with, you may run into unexpected errors. Please see Differences Between Internet Explorer and Netscape in Using Blackboard for more insight into these problems, and some suggestions for working around them.
