On pages that do (possibly only Plain Text) you need to add the optional property 'Superscript Support', check the box on the editor and then you can use sup / sub tags. e.g. for your example use 2s in the page text.

When I create a new file in 2.18 the page templates come up as 'undefined' unless I create a new 'Page Project' which opens 'Pages.rlo', then 'template.rlt' when I'm building a template page. Do I need to build the course in 'Pages.rlo'? After working in 'Pages.rlo' I'm wondering how I can get some of the template pages back into my original RLO. If I use any of the page templates there they seem to build and get pasted in but preview as 'undefined'. Even though my older RLO is in the same directory as 'pages.rlo' (which runs fine with the templates pages I built) I don't seem to be able to copy/paste the new pages back into my older RLO although the path to the templates is the same. Sorry I know this must sound very confusing.just wondering.do I have to rebuild the older files in or as 'Pages.rlo' then save it to another filename? Right now I don't see how else I can use the template pages in an existing RLO. Thanks RonM2 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The original pageWizards are zipped files that contain a .rlm model file, a .xwd form file and a .xml data file. In addition they contain any swf or image files that the page uses e.g. to define buttons, the white panel background etc. When you use a pageWizard the swf and image files get copied into the project's common folder, if they are not already in there. The model file is used by Xerte to create a page entry in the project tree (it defines the structure of the page), then all three files (xwd, rlm and xml) are copied into the folder defined by the page's templateData path. In practice the copying of the rlm file into the templateData folder is unnecessary as its only use is to construct the page structure. A pageWizard automatically detects that it is in Xerte by testing for the presence of templateData at the project level. If it is not there then it knows it is in Xerte. The new Pages project model files cannot use this method of detection as the Pages projects do have a templateData defined at the project level to enable the new project look feature. So a new test is used. The Learning Object has a new property "pages" which is set to true If this property does not exist then the pages project model will think it is in XOT and you will get undefined displayed when you preview. If you want to use a pages individual template in your existing projects you can do so but it may be a bit patchy in how well some of the pages work as your project will lack the shared code to support some features like narration. In addition the new Pages individual page templates are not packaged as discrete zipped files, the model files for all the pages are in one folder in your xerte install, the xwd files in another. However they now all use the same .xlm file. The swf and image files required by the pages are copied in one go to your project's common folder when you create a pages project. Despite these differences with a little care you should find that you can get most pages working well in an existing project. In the first release of the new Xerte 2.18 you could do file / new to create a none pages project and still see the individual pages listed under the pages menu. I think Tom changed that later as it caused confusion because, as you have discovered, adding a pages page to a none pages project does not work "out of the box". So it is possible that when you open an old project that uses pageWizards you are unable to see a list of new Pages page templates under the "Pages" menu. If you can see a the pages listed under the Pages menu, then add them from there, otherwise follow the procedure below. Be aware that it was not really intended to use the new Pages page templates in an old Xerte project but with a bit of care it should be possible. *How to use pages page templates in old Xerte projects* * * *General set up that all pages will use * Select your learning object icon and in the properties panel type in a new property name of pages Then click the add button. Set the property value to true This will ensure that the new Pages page models know they are in Xerte. Now copy the contents of a Pages projects "common" folder into your existing project's common folder (this will ensure that all the pages you add have access to the .swf and images they use). You should be able to overwrite any duplication of existing files but if you are unsure then don't copy in duplicates. *Adding a new Pages Page* To add a new page model (if they are not listing under the "Pages" menu, use File / Insert Model then select the model you want to add from your Xerte install's pages/models folder e.g. c:\xerte\pages\models As you would for a pageWizard, create a folder for the page to use and set up the templateData property to that folder similar to the example below. FileLocation + 'pages/page_002/connectorPlainText.xml' Note the reference to the .xml file, The name of the .xml file must match the model name. So in the above case the model file name was connectorPlainText.rlm Do not try to open the wizard for this page yet! Now in the Xerte install's "pages/wizards/en-GB" folder you will find all the wizards. e.g. C:\xerte\pages\wizards\en-GB\" Copy the wizard file for the pages page that you have added to your project to the templateData path folder so in the above example you would copy connectorPlainText.xwd into your pages/page_002/ folder. Now for the xml folder. In a text editor create yourself an file that contains just the following and save it as universalPage.xml (you will use this for every pages page you add to an old project) Copy universalPage.xml into your page's templateData path folder and rename it to match the name of your page e.g. in the above example you will rename it to plainTextConnector.xml Everything should now be ready to use your new page, Just double check that your templateData value matches the folder you created for the page. To open the Wizard double click on the page entry in the project tree. Let me know how you get on. Just to be on the safe side you might want to work on a copy of a project if it is one that is valuable to you, until you are happy with what you are doing.

It sounds like your install was working probably with the default guest access so I suggest you do the following: 1. Backup your database and directory in case of problems 2. Download 1.9 http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/xertetoolkits.zip extract that and copy the files over the top of your 1.8 install 3. Test it's working with the default guest account e.g. create and view an LO 4. Edit auth_config.php and set authentication to static by un-commenting static and commenting out guest 5. Edit \library\Xerte\Authentication\Static.php and add your required accounts and passwords - use the four default accounts for reference before removing or changing those 6.

Give lectors access to Xerte by using a password, so they can work together on courses ? Integrate these courses in our Blackboard/Toledo LMS by using the IFRAME option ? We don?t want the courses being publicly available Thanks in advance for helping me ?Patrick Yperman Lector Handelswetenschappen en Bedrijfskunde Nieuw: HRM, KMO,Media & Event en Vastgoed KHLim Associatie K.U.Leuven Katholieke Hogeschool Limburg Campus Diepenbeek, Agoralaan gebouw B , bus 2, 3590 Diepenbeek Tel. 011 230 890 - Fax 011 230 899 - patrick.yperman at khlim.be www.khlim.be _______________________________________________ Xerte mailing list Xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte _______________________________________________ Xerte mailing list Xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte _______________________________________________ Xerte mailing list Xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

However there is some fairly detailed help available at the following links to help you out, http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/HotspotImageConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/MenuConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/MultipleChoiceConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/ScenarioConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/PagesProjectsGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/InventoryPageGuide.pdf Please note: The latest version of XOT includes the facility to allow any page to have a text based Connection to another page using the pageLink feature (use it in the same way you make text bold or add a hyperlink). All pages now offer the ability to define what navigation buttons are active when that page displays. There learning object now also has an additional option for the navigation attribute of "Historic" which provides for a Home button and a Back button that operates based on the history of pages accessed rather than the pages sequence in the project. These features have rendered the following connector pages redundant in XOT thus they are no longer included in the list of connector pages. Redirector Connector (Any page use a page link to provide the redirection) Plain Text Connector (plain text page and use a pagelink) Tabbed Navigator Connector (tabbed navigator and use pagelinks) Projects created in earlier versions of XOT that use connector pages will be in the main backward compatible with the exception of the above pages that will need replacing with the alternative shown in brackets. If you have used connector pages in a project and then upgrade to the latest version of XOT I recommend you perform a brief test to check everything is OK. For full details of any differences between the old and new version of the pages please refer to the help documents for which the links are supplied above. In Xerte the pages have not changed so anywhere in the help file where a difference is shown between Xerte and XOT will give you an indication of the change that has been made. I think you will find the new connector pages a big improvement. Many thanks to Julian who has performed some of his magic to provide the enhancements. Have fun.

All pages now offer the ability to define what navigation buttons are active when that page displays. There learning object now also has an additional option for the navigation attribute of "Historic" which provides for a Home button and a Back button that operates based on the history of pages accessed rather than the pages sequence in the project. These features have rendered the following connector pages redundant in XOT thus they are no longer included in the list of connector pages. Redirector Connector (Any page use a page link to provide the redirection) Plain Text Connector (plain text page and use a pagelink) Tabbed Navigator Connector (tabbed navigator and use pagelinks) Projects created in earlier versions of XOT that use connector pages will be in the main backward compatible with the exception of the above pages that will need replacing with the alternative shown in brackets. If you have used connector pages in a project and then upgrade to the latest version of XOT I recommend you perform a brief test to check everything is OK. For full details of any differences between the old and new version of the pages please refer to the help documents for which the links are supplied above. In Xerte the pages have not changed so anywhere in the help file where a difference is shown between Xerte and XOT will give you an indication of the change that has been made. I think you will find the new connector pages a big improvement. Many thanks to Julian who has performed some of his magic to provide the enhancements. Have fun.

The reason is that the when the text gets laid out, the image hasn't loaded yet, hence its height isn't known.

I did a full install from version V 1.8I followed the instructions in the manual and everything was installed successfullyThe Xerte website works. I can create new courses and view them, work with IFRAME integration in our LMS, etc. The website that hosts xerte doesn?t support LDAPSince I want to setup some password protection for the site a have setup a password on the /httpdocs (root) folder of my siteI created several users, each with their own password.I made sure that the same users were also created in Xerte via management.php According to the instructions in the installation manual I have to work with switch.php and put in the usernames and passwordsIn the version 1.8 which I downloaded there was no switch.php On the mailing list I found a switch.php and downloaded it and made the necessary changes Running that file gave a blank screen After some investigation I found that login_library.php was empty The fact that in the first place there was no switch.php present and the fact that login_library.php is empty gives me the impression that I did something wrong or that I use the wrong options. Please advise what to do next. Are there other installation instructions available? What do I want to accomplish?? Setup Xerte on a webserver? Give lectors access to Xerte by using a password, so they can work together on courses? Integrate these courses in our Blackboard/Toledo LMS by using the IFRAME option?

Probably obvious but just wanted to check.

I'm sharing this link to a Xerte HTML 5 LO http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_html5_36 for a couple of reasons... 1. It's an example of a HTML 5 Xerte LO 2. You might also be interested in the iPad related content There's a Google form on the last page of the LO if anyone has any comments or suggestions for alternative solutions for conferencing from and between iPads. Cheers Ron For further info: I've been supporting some colleges in the East Midlands on an LSIS project which is really all about their respective Moodle developments but they also wanted to be able to create relevant training material using iPads and more importantly to conference and collaborate remotely outside of their f2f meetings from and between iPads. So a relatively unique challenge - but there are one or two options for hosting direct from iPads and obviously loads of options for content creation and we explored these during training I delivered yesterday. In prep for the training I also decided it was worth creating a Xerte learning object purely with HTML 5 consumption in mind and very much optimised for iPad consumption. As such it's an example that won't work correctly via the Flash player and demonstrates some of the extra benefits of HTML 5 playback. Of course it's viewable on any HTML 5 compatible device not just iPads, but I've used layout options and image sizes optimised for iPad portrait viewing. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It's not finished completely and there are still some rough edges. I can explain in detail how to do that. Can we go back to the start and an unpatched unmodified installation and go from there? As far as I can tell you are using the standalone/developer version of Xerte, correct? There are 4 components of standalone xerte that needs translation, if you want to be able to author in Hungarian, i.e. that wizard forms are in Hungarian too. If you're fine with the wizards being in English, and you want the end-result to be in Hungarian (for the learner, that involves much less work.)

There are some rough edges in Choosing the language. I need to improve on that. To only PLAY the LO in Hungarian, you need: 1. a hungarian version of languages/engine_en-GB.xml 2. add an entry for Hungarian in languages/language-config.xml 3. Have a language attribute in learningObject node of the USER-FILES/5-tom-Nottingham/data.xml file, where 5 is the ' id' of the LO and tom is the user name of the creator of the LO and Nottingham id the name of the template.

Easier and better to upgrade the existing install. General process as follows: 1. backup existing database and directory just in case 2. drop 1.9 code over top of existing code 3. visit the install to test the basics are working ok via guest access e.g. create and test an LO 4. If you are using LDAP for authentication visit http://yourinstall/upgrade.php to automatically copy details from sitedeatils to ldap table 5. change from guest to ldap or one of the other authentication options in auth_config.php by commenting/un-commenting the relevant line 6. If you are using Moodle for authentication read and follow the instructions in the moodle_integration_readme file 7. refresh index.php and test login and creation etc A final point - there isn't a maintenance mode like these is in Moodle for preventing non-admins logging in during upgrade and you dodn't want people creating new LO's in case you do have to revert back so perhaps schedule this and notify people and/or rename index.php temporarily so only you can visit and test etc. HTH Ron From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Adam Read Sent: 15 January 2013 09:49 To: 'Xerte discussion list' Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte Upgrade I was hoping to do the very same today.

I hard coded in both basedn as separate searches, then in the ldap_get_entries made a check for both being empty to output the error (#4).

Do you have many students accessing XOT to author with? Can you get by with Staff access until someone else responds? If not the following would be a hack and not the right long term solution but in theory might work - copy the ldap table, Ldap.php and index.php and change those so that perhaps index.php is the staff login page and student_index.php is the student login page. Obviously this would mean editing the php and table calls etc. As I said not the right solution and might not even work but might just be a short term solution if you don't want to revert back to 1.8. I've done similar things previously where a mix of both LDAP and Moodle authentication was required.

As a guess try adding an extra row in the ldap table which I think you'll have to do direct in the db because I don't think there's an option for that in management.php Also from memory there's a field (knownname) that I think isn't typically used but requires a not null value sow when adding a row manually just put elm in there which I think is added by default during a new install. Let us know if that works or indeed if not? Pat or David or Thomas if he's about might have additional suggestions.

Easier and better to upgrade the existing install. General process as follows: 1. backup existing database and directory just in case 2. drop 1.9 code over top of existing code 3. visit the install to test the basics are working ok via guest access e.g. create and test an LO 4. If you are using LDAP for authentication visit http://yourinstall/upgrade.php to automatically copy details from sitedeatils to ldap table 5. change from guest to ldap or one of the other authentication options in auth_config.php by commenting/un-commenting the relevant line 6. If you are using Moodle for authentication read and follow the instructions in the moodle_integration_readme file 7. refresh index.php and test login and creation etc A final point - there isn't a maintenance mode like these is in Moodle for preventing non-admins logging in during upgrade and you dodn't want people creating new LO's in case you do have to revert back so perhaps schedule this and notify people and/or rename index.php temporarily so only you can visit and test etc. HTH Ron From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Adam Read Sent: 15 January 2013 09:49 To: 'Xerte discussion list' Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte Upgrade I was hoping to do the very same today.

We wish to maintain the existing database in order to preserve our existing content. Which config files would need to be modified after installing a fresh version of Xerte in order to hook it up to our existing database? I presume that once done, Xerte will pick up our LDAP settings from the database but would any additional configuration be required in order to re-enable LDAP authentication on this new install (we authenticate at present using our Active Directory server with Xerte)?

Re SCORM, in general, keeping up with Moodle at least, though of course SCORM/AICC is evolving (TIN CAN /CMI-5). The biggest problem currently is the publicly writable directories (chmod 0777, toolkits installation guide p19,) which is a security issue and quite correctly forbidden by some hosting services (we are talking about a potential internet not an intranet application here). Can the location of these be changed (perhaps within a config file,) to a server location that has no URL, so for example from: opt/domainname/web/html[site root]/xerte/USER-FILES to opt/domainname/web/private/USER-FILES to enable test and integration of the online toolkit without the security issues? Also, as this online toolkit installation hasn't been completed for the above reasons, does it render the same as the techdis version does on some high aspect ratio laptop screens, i.e. with the 'play' icon and other page foot features of the new project dialogue out of view in a window with no scroll bar?

You only need to open up the write permissions for the ' web browser user'. i.e. the owner of the web browser process needs to be able to write in those folders. For Linux and apache this means that the files should be owned by the user that runs the apache process. Hope this helps.

Once installed I think you can choose your own settings. The import folder can be placed outside the webroot, and it should in theory be possible to do this for user-files as well, but it'd need a bit of a rewrite and not sure how the flash would feel about it On Wed, Jan 16, 2013 at 12:37 PM, Tom Reijnders wrote: > Regarding the security: > > Even though the manual sys you have to do this, this is not necessary.

Regarding SCORM, I did not mean to be unhelpful; incorporating by reference means the target, in this case Moodle can be consulted for the latest support. The current version of SCORM is 2004 and this is supported in Moodle via a plugin. Version 1.2 is supported natively as I understand is the case with Xerte. Of course, the successor to the SCORM 2004 spec. is already at version 0.95 so a 1.0 release may appear soon. Are there plans for implimenting SCORM support in Xerte beyond version 1.2, and if so is there a timetable?

At the moment only the quiz is 'SCORM enabled' in the sense that it tries to write the sores in to the SCORM store, and you can can see and check the score through the Moodle Score Book. All the rest of the pages really uses scorm only as a package format to be able to load it into Moodle. In XOT 1.8 I also introduced SCORM 2004 compliant packages and I have a SCORM 2004 version of the quiz that stores much more than only the final score. It should also give you a table with the correct answers in ' review' mode, but I never got the MOddle SCORM player to start an LO in ' review' mode, so for now it's a bit pointless. So, yes, there will definitely be more SCORM enabled pages, but it is all a bit early to make promises. I intend to do most of this work after the HTML5 work is finished.

Regarding SCORM, I did not mean to be unhelpful; incorporating by reference means the target, in this case Moodle can be consulted for the latest support. The current version of SCORM is 2004 and this is supported in Moodle via a plugin. Version 1.2 is supported natively as I understand is the case with Xerte. Of course, the successor to the SCORM 2004 spec. is already at version 0.95 so a 1.0 release may appear soon.

"what is it you need to achieve that you can't currently do?" For a clean sheet implementation, I need to produce an e-learning system within a few weeks where for quality assurance purposes, student activities such as page or media viewing, as well as test results, are recorded for audit purposes. The LMS will probably be Moodle and Xerte is one of several available authoring tools which can potentially assist experienced trainers transitioning from a seminar and powerpoint/handout based learning method. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, but if I have to write interim or permanent bespoke code for this I will, naturally it would be preferable to integrate and support an authoring tool which is headed in the right direction within a defined timeframe. That probably means that if this functionality isn't starting to appear in Xerte within about six months, it won't be a beneficial tool for this application.

It would be fairly trivial to customise your install to do what you want though. -----Original Message----- From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of avitor training Sent: 18 January 2013 12:33 To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte Project Questions Thanks for the feedback. "what is it you need to achieve that you can't currently do?" For a clean sheet implementation, I need to produce an e-learning system within a few weeks where for quality assurance purposes, student activities such as page or media viewing, as well as test results, are recorded for audit purposes. The LMS will probably be Moodle and Xerte is one of several available authoring tools which can potentially assist experienced trainers transitioning from a seminar and powerpoint/handout based learning method. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, but if I have to write interim or permanent bespoke code for this I will, naturally it would be preferable to integrate and support an authoring tool which is headed in the right direction within a defined timeframe. That probably means that if this functionality isn't starting to appear in Xerte within about six months, it won't be a beneficial tool for this application.

Then I found that no one ever bothered with the reports, so I stopped building them, and no one seemed to notice - your experience may vary. Yes, that would work, having users select what to track: quite a bit of work though. I don't know if it stacks up against the relatively small number of people who want fine-grained tracking who can relatively easily add the tracking to their own requirements easily enough by customising the code - appreciate the issues with updates etc though. It might well be a lot easier with the html5 delivery stuff. This is a classic open source 'scratch your own itch' problem I think. -----Original Message----- From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of avitor training Sent: 18 January 2013 13:30 To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte Project Questions Whilst no claiming to be well informed over the diversity of SCORM/LMS implementations, I would presume that a dialogue screen when creating an object for SCORM export from Xerte would, idiosyncrasies of the target LMS aside, be able to cover that by allowing users to select what is tracked.

I realised it wasn't for me when they said 'can you make the quiz easier?' and I asked why - they said 'because people fail it, and then we have to do something'. Anyway, now we all know how seriously the banks take regulatory stuff. -----Original Message----- From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of avitor training Sent: 18 January 2013 14:45 To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: Xerte Project Questions The tracking issue is about enabling a robust audit of the learning process as many of the courses in question are mandated by regulatory authorities and need to be verified for compliance by quality managers. I don't doubt that the trainers will have no interest in this level of tracking until they get the phone call from a customer quality department. I will take the advice to experiment with XOT 1.9.

Does the fact that the light from some page or video fell on someone's retina mean anything?Isn't the well-designed quiz or activity supposed to ascertain the "mastery" of the concept being transmitted?And in the case of online, how does one prove who actually took the quiz anyway? In my corporate past I have found those assurances are usually for legal liability reasons, and a signed piece of paper saying "I viewed the course" makes the legal eagles happy. Ugly but true.

In previous discussions it's clear that depending on php configuration previewing and/or publishing was/is stripping slashes to the point that latex code had all slashes removed and therefore didn't work. There was a suggestion of using ini_set( 'magic_quotes_gpc', true ); in save.php but it's not clear if that resolved the issue. I have an installation (linux) where this is happening so as a test I turned on magic_quotes_gpc server wide but that hasn't resolved the issue. Also I read that magic quotes has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 5.4.0. So what's the solution to this?

If magic_quotes isn't on, it skips the stripslashes function. This function ensures that either configuration is handled. $dbc in the function is the database connection resource variable.

Make sure you've called SET NAMES UTF8 or whatever on that connection ... assuming you're using unicode... 3. In XOT, use the db_query/db_query_one functions; they'll take in prepared-statement-esque SQL, which is immune to injection and doesn't result in you having to care whether $foo has been escaped, double escaped or not escaped. Just pass the variables you want to embed within the SQL within an array with ? marks within the actual SQL - like : $row = db_query_one("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", array($_GET['id'])); or $rows = db_query("SELECT * FROM whatever WHERE id = ? AND blah = ?", array($_GET['id'], $_GET['blah'])); etc etc. 4. Different output formats need different escaping; e.g. the escaping you need for within javascript (addcslashes) is different to that for html (htmlentities) and so on. While the 'escapedata' approach may work, it's not ideal or correct to apply escaping which is appropriate to MySQL on data which is meant to be output as LaTeX or HTML or whatever. > > In previous discussions it's clear that depending on php configuration previewing and/or publishing was/is stripping slashes to the point that latex code had all slashes removed and therefore didn't work. There was a suggestion of using ini_set( 'magic_quotes_gpc', true ); in save.php but it's not clear if that resolved the issue. Don't use magic_quotes. They cause PHP to escape everything with 'addslashes()' that comes from user supplied data -e.g database calls, file_get_contents (probably) and so on. The result of this is that you will eventually find the data to be a mess - e.g. it\\\\\\\\\'s and so on. > > I have an installation (linux) where this is happening so as a test I turned on magic_quotes_gpc server wide but that hasn't resolved the issue.

In previous discussions it's clear that depending on php configuration previewing and/or publishing was/is stripping slashes to the point that latex code had all slashes removed and therefore didn't work. There was a suggestion of using ini_set( 'magic_quotes_gpc', true ); in save.php but it's not clear if that resolved the issue. I have an installation (linux) where this is happening so as a test I turned on magic_quotes_gpc server wide but that hasn't resolved the issue. Also I read that magic quotes has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 5.4.0. So what's the solution to this? Why is it working ok on the Nottingham install but not for me and others? Or is it? Cheers Ron -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You should always validate user input before using in a query. The way to use it would be: if ( !empty ($_GET['id']) ) { $id = (int) escape_data ($_GET['id']); } else { $id = null; } Then you can use $id in the query without being open to SQL injection. Good to point out that even a function meant to safeguard queries must be used properly. Thanks!

Pat - I don't really see why it's relevant to use the console to track tex requests? The problem is very clear: save.php is stripping the slashes until there are none left. What's not clear is why it's doing this on some installations but not on others especially as it doesn't seem to be clearly due to whether magic_quotes_gpc is on or not. Also even if the difference was clearly down to magic_quotes_gpc on or off there's possibly going to be an issue for everyone given the deprecation etc? David/Pat - given the purpose and function of save.php (e.g. writing the xml) would it be safe and a universal solution to do the following: if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { if(fwrite($file_handle, stripslashes($_POST['filedata']))!=false){ } else{ if(fwrite($file_handle, $_POST['filedata'])!=false){ } Cheers Ron From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of David Goodwin Sent: 22 January 2013 09:37 To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Re: latex/stripslashes/magic quotes etc If magic quotes are enabled, then PHP will call addslashes on all user supplied input (e.g. $_POST['filedata']); If magic quotes are turned off, the stripslashes will presumably break things. Having stripslashes there is going to cause issues - as some sites/servers will have magic quotes turned on, others will have it turned off. The code should do something like : if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST['filedata'] = stripslashes($_POST['filedata']); } See : http://uk1.php.net/get_magic_quotes_gpc David.

I added a button with the following script w[0].setText("Test " + p); p++; debug(p); where p is initialized to 0 in earlier script. Here's the earlier script (attached directly to the page) w = IdPrayer.breakApart(25, 5, true, false); t = new Array(200); // Array t is used to keep track of which words have been replaced. for(i=0; i<200; i++) { t[i] = -1; // -1 designates the original text is in the word } p = 0; As I press the button multiple times, the word only changes to "Test 0". The debug window shows that p is increasing. Therefore, I know the script is executing with each button press but that the value of w[0] only changes on the first button press. I noticed I was running Xerte 2.16 so I uninstalled using the control panel and re-installed 2.18. This made no difference. BTW - this is not of great importance. Don't turn this into a time killer. But if you have any suggestions for me to try, please let me know.

Txt = IdPrayer.wordClicked.text; Index = IdPrayer.wordClicked.index; I am able to replace the text IdPrayer.wordClicked.setText(rep); However, I am only able to set the text 1 time. And although the word changes on the screen, IdPrayer.wordClicked.text has the original string in it when I click the modified word. If I try to change the text a second time, nothing happens. IdPrayer.wordClicked.setText("Something else"); I'm guessing that setText() is not what I should be using here... but haven't found what I should be using.

I published the changes are made so far, close the browser reloaded and try to add the image again and had exactly the same problem; completely unresponsive image button.

The server has a FQDN of xerte.portsmouth-college.ac.uk and when I run setup/mysql_test.php on the test where it checks connectivity I get this error Due to the following error - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-college.ac.uk' at line 1 - 1064 we cannot ascertain whether we can create this database It would appear that it isn't escaping the FQDN correctly causing the mysql statement to fail. If I rename the server to use our secondary domain tpc.ac.uk the installer goes through fine so I know there is nothing wrong with the install. I still have the first server so if required I can test altered php files.

As soon as you close the preview however, you need to close the editor/wizard to reactivate the browse button again. It happens for the flash preview and for the html5 preview. Haven't had the time to look into it yet. I've seen this long before 1.91, so it is not introduced last month, buut more in october/november timeframe.

With these defaults the installer can change the admin-site username and password through the management page. If (As I did) you forget to set a admin-site username and password you can not get to the management page to set one. Unless you set them explicitly in the Database.. Bruno PS not related, but maybe someone knows a solution: Is it possible to give access to everybody (as a guest) and allow the user to set himself a username and password? Is it possible to give access to a group to which you sent a mail? That is: you sent someone a mail containing the url to your project, and the receiver is able to register himself only using either that url or by mentioning him email address ...

We suddenly realised this morning that we'd been so busy with other stuff this week we'd forgotten to advertise. That explains why we only had European friends rather than transatlantic ones joining us! Here's some of the things we looked at - feel free to pass on to colleagues: though you know most of this already but you might like the examples... The recording is at http://www.instantpresenter.com/techdisonline/EA52D787834B - but it starts a few minutes into the session. The first half is an intro to the range of features already in previous versions of the Xerte. The HTML 5 demos start around halfway through. One of the great things the development team have achieved is a backward compatibility so that any existing flash learning objects can be exported from an old Xerte installation, imported into the upgraded installation and automatically generate a Flash version and an HTML version. At the moment exact compatibility between the Flash and HTML 5 is not guaranteed because about a third of the 70+ types remain to be "HTML5-ed". Version 1.9 is a transition between the previous entirely Flash-based versions and the new version 2 (due for release at Easter) which will be entirely HTML 5 based. Consequently the current version slightly straddles two worlds. There are brilliant things you can do that work with the HTML 5 output than all Flash output (for example http://tinyurl.com/xertenew and http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_html5_36) as well as some things that you can do on Flash output but not yet on HTML5 (http://vle.jisctechdis.ac.uk/xot/play.php?template_id=164) and some other work equally well on both such as my fieldwork example http://tinyurl.com/tdxen. Please note that there is currently a display issue with Internet Explorer on certain screen resolutions. Until the bug has been fixed it is probably best to use chrome or Firefox for viewing these examples, especially those containing YouTube clips like the first one. The convergence is to the HTML 5 version and everything (except Flash specific content such as the Flash paper page type) should be working by Easter. We have been doing accessibility testing as we have gone a long and made adjustments to the code in the process.

According to what others have reported in the Google search link below, hyphens in database names cause issues which can be resolved by using the backticks around the database name. It's one of those charming quirks of MySQL. If you ever use phpMyAdmin to export a database, you'll see that it always uses backticks around database and table names when it generates the SQL.

"what is it you need to achieve that you can't currently do?" For a clean sheet implementation, I need to produce an e-learning system within a few weeks where for quality assurance purposes, student activities such as page or media viewing, as well as test results, are recorded for audit purposes. The LMS will probably be Moodle and Xerte is one of several available authoring tools which can potentially assist experienced trainers transitioning from a seminar and powerpoint/handout based learning method. I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, but if I have to write interim or permanent bespoke code for this I will, naturally it would be preferable to integrate and support an authoring tool which is headed in the right direction within a defined timeframe. That probably means that if this functionality isn't starting to appear in Xerte within about six months, it won't be a beneficial tool for this application.

I have a specific project in mind and wanted to know if a template has been created or is being created that I can use. I'm after a Hot Sport image that can be used as a navigation and can have html added to the info/label that comes up when you click on the hotspot. Ideally I don't want to have to use the developer version to build the content myself. Ideally id like the template to have some drop down options: The ability to add navigation to other Xerte pages when you click on the hotspot itself The ability to add navigation (one or more) to other Xerte pages within the label of the hotspot itself. The ability to add further pictures, html external links to the label of the hotspot itself. I am a developer myself and so I may have a go at creating the above (haven't looked at the back and of Xerte yet, so I don't know if what I just said was stupid), but I code for Moodle, Moodle 2, SharePoint etc. If anyone has any comments or suggestions, or know that what I am asking can be done in Xerte at the moment, please get in touch.

Normally it is good practice to give feedback on a test so having a feedback dialogue box should be the default setting. I don't have a problem with a method that allows experienced people to remove or change defaults but I feel it shouldn't be easy or obvious to do!

I totally agree that having the feedback dialog should be the default setting. But I think it'd be quite useful if the blank "placeholders" wouldn't appeare in slides. It bothers me not only in quizzes but in orientation pages too (when I don't fill all the dialog boxes). I try to sketch it in PHP'ish: Let's say $feedback contains the value of the feedback dialog box and $feedback_label stands for the "Feedback" label. if ($feedback!=""){ print $feedback_label.": ".$feedback } Istvan 2013/1/30 Alistair McNaught : > Useful to know - thanks Tom > > A > > -----Original Message----- > From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Tom Reijnders > Sent: 30 January 2013 08:27 > To: Xerte discussion list > Subject: [Xerte] Re: Excluding blank fields from display > > It is implemented exactly like that. > > You can switch off feedback in the quiz setup page.

When adding a 'Menu Page Entry' Child Element, the only property shown is 'Page Title', whereas the PDF guide below says that 'Select Page from List' and 'Select Page ID' should also be available. Unfortunately this means I can't specify page IDs, and therefore the menu just displays all pages by default. Is anyone else having this problem? Thanks, James From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Kemp Johnathan Sent: 07 January 2013 22:23 To: Xerte discussion list Subject: [Xerte] Connector pages and pages projects Hello Xerte / XOT users everywhere, I will be away from my email for a few weeks and so unable to respond to any queries regarding the connector pages, or "pages" type of projects in Xerte. However there is some fairly detailed help available at the following links to help you out, http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/HotspotImageConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/MenuConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/MultipleChoiceConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/ScenarioConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/PagesProjectsGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/InventoryPageGuide.pdf Please note: The latest version of XOT includes the facility to allow any page to have a text based Connection to another page using the pageLink feature (use it in the same way you make text bold or add a hyperlink). All pages now offer the ability to define what navigation buttons are active when that page displays. There learning object now also has an additional option for the navigation attribute of "Historic" which provides for a Home button and a Back button that operates based on the history of pages accessed rather than the pages sequence in the project. These features have rendered the following connector pages redundant in XOT thus they are no longer included in the list of connector pages. Redirector Connector (Any page use a page link to provide the redirection) Plain Text Connector (plain text page and use a pagelink) Tabbed Navigator Connector (tabbed navigator and use pagelinks) Projects created in earlier versions of XOT that use connector pages will be in the main backward compatible with the exception of the above pages that will need replacing with the alternative shown in brackets. If you have used connector pages in a project and then upgrade to the latest version of XOT I recommend you perform a brief test to check everything is OK. For full details of any differences between the old and new version of the pages please refer to the help documents for which the links are supplied above. In Xerte the pages have not changed so anywhere in the help file where a difference is shown between Xerte and XOT will give you an indication of the change that has been made. I think you will find the new connector pages a big improvement. Many thanks to Julian who has performed some of his magic to provide the enhancements. Have fun.

These features have rendered the following connector pages redundant in XOT thus they are no longer included in the list of connector pages. Redirector Connector (Any page use a page link to provide the redirection) Plain Text Connector (plain text page and use a pagelink) Tabbed Navigator Connector (tabbed navigator and use pagelinks) Projects created in earlier versions of XOT that use connector pages will be in the main backward compatible with the exception of the above pages that will need replacing with the alternative shown in brackets. If you have used connector pages in a project and then upgrade to the latest version of XOT I recommend you perform a brief test to check everything is OK. For full details of any differences between the old and new version of the pages please refer to the help documents for which the links are supplied above. In Xerte the pages have not changed so anywhere in the help file where a difference is shown between Xerte and XOT will give you an indication of the change that has been made. I think you will find the new connector pages a big improvement. Many thanks to Julian who has performed some of his magic to provide the enhancements. Have fun.

However there is some fairly detailed help available at the following links to help you out, http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/HotspotImageConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/MenuConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/MultipleChoiceConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/ScenarioConnectorPageGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/PagesProjectsGuide.pdf http://xerte.org.uk/docs/xot/help/InventoryPageGuide.pdf Please note: The latest version of XOT includes the facility to allow any page to have a text based Connection to another page using the pageLink feature (use it in the same way you make text bold or add a hyperlink). All pages now offer the ability to define what navigation buttons are active when that page displays. There learning object now also has an additional option for the navigation attribute of "Historic" which provides for a Home button and a Back button that operates based on the history of pages accessed rather than the pages sequence in the project. These features have rendered the following connector pages redundant in XOT thus they are no longer included in the list of connector pages. Redirector Connector (Any page use a page link to provide the redirection) Plain Text Connector (plain text page and use a pagelink) Tabbed Navigator Connector (tabbed navigator and use pagelinks) Projects created in earlier versions of XOT that use connector pages will be in the main backward compatible with the exception of the above pages that will need replacing with the alternative shown in brackets. If you have used connector pages in a project and then upgrade to the latest version of XOT I recommend you perform a brief test to check everything is OK. For full details of any differences between the old and new version of the pages please refer to the help documents for which the links are supplied above. In Xerte the pages have not changed so anywhere in the help file where a difference is shown between Xerte and XOT will give you an indication of the change that has been made. I think you will find the new connector pages a big improvement. Many thanks to Julian who has performed some of his magic to provide the enhancements. Have fun.

All pages now offer the ability to define what navigation buttons are active when that page displays. There learning object now also has an additional option for the navigation attribute of "Historic" which provides for a Home button and a Back button that operates based on the history of pages accessed rather than the pages sequence in the project. These features have rendered the following connector pages redundant in XOT thus they are no longer included in the list of connector pages. Redirector Connector (Any page use a page link to provide the redirection) Plain Text Connector (plain text page and use a pagelink) Tabbed Navigator Connector (tabbed navigator and use pagelinks) Projects created in earlier versions of XOT that use connector pages will be in the main backward compatible with the exception of the above pages that will need replacing with the alternative shown in brackets. If you have used connector pages in a project and then upgrade to the latest version of XOT I recommend you perform a brief test to check everything is OK. For full details of any differences between the old and new version of the pages please refer to the help documents for which the links are supplied above. In Xerte the pages have not changed so anywhere in the help file where a difference is shown between Xerte and XOT will give you an indication of the change that has been made. I think you will find the new connector pages a big improvement. Many thanks to Julian who has performed some of his magic to provide the enhancements. Have fun.
