Hi Jonathan

I can confirm that I get exactly the same results as you. e.g. the links go
to the correct maps but the images displayed in the LO are incorrect. I
wondered if having duplicates after each other would show the correct image
on the second page but stoke always seems to show Nottingham and London West
Bridgeford etc.

I've tried importing this into 3 different XOT installations and all result
the same. Clearly there's some difference in the versions we're using and
what's on the install Thomas is using because his works fine.

 

Thomas can you export and send us a copy of your LO?

 

HTH

Hello Everyone,

 

Thomas thank you for trying this out.

 

Things are getting very strange.

 

I have created a brand new pageTemplates project. Added three map pages with
the url's that I used before and which I included in my first email.

 

I have compared the map.rlm file in the projects model folder with the
map.rlm file in the xerte svn and it is identical.

 

I published the project, zipped it up and opened it on a different PC that
does not have Xerte installed. At first no maps displayed until I set the
Flash Player Global settings / Advanced / Trusted Location Settings ... to
include the parent folder in which the project folder was placed.

 

Then on reopening my browser and then the index.htm the maps started
displaying and I got the same results in both Opera and Firefox.

 

The stoke page displayed a map of nottingham (but if I click on the map a
window opens to display the map of stoke)

 

The nottingham page displayed a map of southern Stoke on Trent (but if I
click on it a window opens to display the map of nottingham).

 

The london page displays a map of nottingham but zoomed in more than the
first map so it is mostly west bridgford (but if I click on it a window
opens to display a map of london)

 

I have attached the zip of the project.

 

I would be very interested to see if others get the same results with this
project.

 

Kind regards

 

Johnathan

Hi Jonathan,

 

I'm unable to replicate your issue, I'm afraid. I've been 'playing' with the
new features and have embedded three maps and a table which you can view at:

Kindest regards, Thomas

Are there any issues with the Google map page at the moment? Could the
page's performance have been affected by changes to the main xmlEngine.swf
or wizard.swf which I noticed had been updated when I refreshed my svn copy
today? I have installed both of these new files into my xerte installation

 

I have created a page templates project with a google map page and get
exactly the same results as my individual template page.

 

Create a xerte project

Add 3 google map pages

page 1 paste in the link for st3 and change the tooltip to Stoke on Trent

page 2 paste in the link for ng2 and change the tooltip to Nottingham

page 3 paste in the link for nw1 and change the tooltip to london

 

Now save and close Xerte

Now open Xerte and open your project and preview it

I get 

page 1 tooltip stoke on trent but map is nottingham

page 2 tooltip is nottingham but map is stoke on trent

page 3 tooltip is london but map is West bridgford

 

the links as pasted in are

 

Page 1 = http://maps.google.com/maps?q=ST3,+United+Kingdom

Can anyone replicate this?

 

Kind regards
