Hi,

Thank you for your response.

I've looked on my XOT server and found two rloobject.js files.
One is in the root of the server and one is in the SCORM module.
I've replaced the rloobject.js in the zip export by the one in the root.
Now the site doesn't load anymore.
I've then replaced the rloobject.js in the zip export by the one in the
SCORM module.
Now the site works again, but the screen size behavior is the same. "Full
screen" and "Fill window" don't work.

Best regards,

     John Bijnens
