[LON-CAPA-users] formula response or maxima response example requested

[Peter Riegler]

Hi,

don't know whether this helps to narrow down the problem:

I have incorportated Jay's resource as CC into one of my courses. 
Everythings works fine here, from a CC's perspective.
Browser: Mozilla 1.7.12
loncapa: 2.5.3-2007110815

Is this the only resource behaving oddly?
