An even better fix for showing data in IC

Infinite Campus support tells us the following:

With the 1402 update, districts have had to have all users clear their history/cache if they use a browser that doesn't allow the settings to be established so that the browser history clears on exit or if they don't have their browser settings set so that the history does clear on exit. 
The link below explains how to clear the browser history/cache for all supported browsers and OS. Firefox and IE browsers contain the setting where it can be set to clear on exit. In Safari, the way to clear cache/history automatically is by turning on Private Browsing. For any Chrome users, they will need to clear it manually and should do so on a regular basis.

Fix for blank frames in IC

I have bad news and good news.

First the bad: The issue I described yesterday regarding Chrome browser not displaying IC content correctly also affects some Firefox, Safari, and IE installations.

Good news: We have discovered a solution that seems to work, at least sometimes. If you encounter a screen in which a portion of the page that normally should have data (typically the largest portion of the screen) is blank, try this:
  1. Right-click on the portion of the page that is blank.
  2. Choose "Reload Frame" from the resulting menu. (The exact menu will vary depending on the browser.)
After this, the content should appear in the frame like normal. However, this is hit-or-miss - it doesn't always fix it. We are trying to figure out what specific combination of software causes the behavior. 

So, please try using multiple browsers and reloading the frame to see if you find a combination that works for you. We will continue gathering information to figure out if there is a software fix we can apply.
