The only other -- purely technical -- means to enforce use of the web player would be to disable other launch methods via your web experiment's settings. Edited 9 Years Ago by Dave

In this context, note that recent versions of Chrome have completely dropped plugin support (this affects the native Inquisit NPAPI plugin as well as Java): https://www.chromium.org/developers/npapi-deprecation Under Chrome, the web player launch should be used instead of Java or the plugin. Alternatively, the plugin and Java launch methods may still be used with other browsers such as Firefox.

However, this person has tested other inquisit experiments for me before, so there may be something in the settings of this particular experiment. Do you have any idea what it might be? (In case you wanted to see the experiment: http://research.millisecond.com/eblweb2/spacingdemo3.web) Thanks, Diane
