WebCT Into Vista Transitional Login

Because we are in the first semester of a 3-semester transition from WebCT CE 4.1 to Blackbloard Vista 4, only part of our DE faculty will be using Vista in the Spring. We need to work out a script that will securely forward and authenticate users--both instructors and students--securely from each course's CE 4.1 home page into the correct Vista 4 course.

The forwarding/authentication process looks like this for most users:

UVLink Portal --> WebCT CE Course --> Blackboard Vista Course

We need this script in place by Jan 1. In the meantime, instructors will access courses by going directly to http://utahelearning.uen.org
