You did also add .rlt?

 

The project is a template right?

Dear Julian,

 

.rlo was added to the list of MIME types on our test server (mapped as
an XML file type), but this made no difference to the problem.

 

Some additional information about the problem: it occurs in IE (version
7) but not in Firefox (version 3). Both browsers use version WIN
10,0,12,36 of the Adobe Flash Player (checked using
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html). This is the case on my PC
and on a colleague's Linux machine.

 

The project included a hotspot image slide, a categories slide and a
drag-and-drop labelling slide.

 

Does this spark off any thoughts?

 

Yours,

 

Joe

Send all mails to the list, yes...

 

Check the archives for info on mime types.

Dear Julian,

 

Attached is the SCORM export file for a test project produced by one of
the partner colleges I work with. They're using the Xerte installation
on the server here at Bath (the same one I use) and followed my
instructions to export the project.

 

When I unzip this and run scormRLO.htm, I can view the 3 pages of the
project without any bother.

 

However, when I upload this to Moodle (in the same way as I've uploaded
previous projects) and then attempt to view the result, the following
happens: the XML and environment loads; the project shell (blue
background) flashes up for a split second; then the screen goes blank.

 

Attached to this e-mail are the archive in question and a
few-seconds-long WMV clip showing what happens in Moodle.

 

I'd be grateful if you could let me know what you think could be the
cause of the problem.

 

I'm just heading off for a meeting - back within the hour.

 

Yours,

 

Joe
