Hi Kate
Blackboard relies on JavaScript to authenticate users but Lynx does not support JavaScript so it cannot be used to access Blackboard.
Cheers,
Simon

Subject: Blackboard 7.1 and Lynx
Hi all
Does anyone have any experience of using Blackboard with Lynx? I have had a query about it and we have tried it out ourselves, but we are getting a 'No authentication credentials' error message when we (finally!) make it to the login screen.
I know that it's not a Blackboard-supported browser but any advice/information would be most gratefully received (we're using Blackboard Basic 7.1).
All the best
Kate W
