Firefox 66.0 has currently introduced a defect to Banner 9 where certain mouse-clicks don't register and the user must use a workaround to have that click recognized. We recommend you do not upgrade to Firefox 66.0 if you have not already done so. If you have already upgraded you may wish to use a different browser until the issues with Firefox are resolved.

Ellucian is working on an update that will accommodate this issue in Firefox, however, a delivery date has not yet been announced. Below is the latest comment in eCommunities from Joshua Lederhandler at Ellucian on March 25, 2019.

Customer Community,

We have identified a solution and are actively testing it. Our plans are to deliver a Banner Admin Common 9.3.16.1 delivery against the current release and a Banner Admin Common 9.3.15.4 delivery against the one-back version. Resolutions for the Firefox v66 bug are planned in these deliveries, no additional resolutions above and beyond that.

Please follow the Banner Admin Common 9.3.15.4 or 9.3.16.1 release record in the Product Calendar for up to date delivery information.

Thank you,

Josh Lederhandler
Product Manager
