[Xerte-dev] Re: Browse Dialog Issue when Uploading Media

I changed the getUrl for xerte to be exactly the same as for site (not 
the url mind you) and that doesn't help.

I can't imagine that the url params have anything to do with that.

The only difference I see between firefox and chrome is that firefox 
calls the javascript function getSessionId()

I have really no clue....
