Q: I'm having difficulty
viewing the Web site; what can I do?
A:
- Be sure that you are using the latest
browsers for your system.
- This site uses the Adobe Flash plug-in
for presentations and navigation. Be
sure to download the latest free
version. See "What is the
Adobe Flash plug-in?" for
more information about Flash.
- Check your internet connection speed.
Some activities such as Flash-based
presentations require modem speeds
of 56k and higher. If presentations
load or play slowly, you may need a
faster connection such as DSL, cable,
or T1.
If you're still having problems viewing
this site, please contact

Q: What is the Adobe Flash
plug-in?
A: The
Adobe (formerly Macromedia) Flash Plug-in
allows users to play documents that have
been created using Adobe Flash software
in your browser. Flash provides interactivity,
rich media such as audio and video, and
animation all in one plug-in. All the
presentations on this site require the
Flash plug-in. This is the only plug-in
required for the MedEd PPD site.
The Flash plug-in is free and can be
downloaded here.
