Like Pat says, yes extra stuff in the export code.
Potentially this goes wrong in Xerte Standalone as well.... not sure
about that.
I am aware of the problems, and yes, I will commit the changes to the
wizard, but it's not enough.
Question, is the url still working?
I'll think of something to make sure old projects get exported correctly.
