So try this one, and select a video on the first page, and check what works and what doesn't work. Let me know if I can help you further. By the way, if you copy this data.xml into the project, be sure to copy this file over preview.xml as well! Tom Op 30-9-2013 23:27, Greg Reader schreef: > Thanks for the quick replies.

Thanks for any input you can provide. -Greg Reader Windows ??????? ???: Dave Burnett ????: ?Monday?, ?September? ?30?, ?2013 ?5?:?38? ?AM ??: Xerte list >Finally, when I expanded the glossary (which also initially played fine) to include all terms, it seemed to break the LO.

From: greg.reader at live.com To: xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2013 19:19:49 -0500 Subject: [Xerte] Glossary, video, visibility issues in HTML5 preview and deployment I am in the final phases of completing a LO in XOT 2.0 and I have run across an array of issues that I am hoping someone may be able to help me solve. I moved this resource from Captivate to Xerte and would hate to have to move it back at this point. A bit of background first: The resource is for language learners who will not be connected to the internet so the final deployment is planned to be via USB flash memory. The includes a large glossary of terms (100+ terms), video (mp4) and audio (mp3). As it will be on flash, higher quality video and audio is preferred. HTML 5 is also preferred as we may deploy online at a later date and want users with Apple devices, such as iPads, to be able to access the resource. At the start of the project I added the text and images and all appeared to preview fine. I exported a SCORM 2004 deployment to demonstrate the resource and it too ran fine in Moodle 2.2. I then added the audio and all still seemed alright. Adding the video, however, brought about some unwelcome changes. The video will be embedded in multiple places as it is used for different parts of the instruction. The video would play fine once but afterwards it would not load (nor would it load on subsequent pages with the same video). The video is also on a quiz interaction page, on which it appears to be embedded twice (two video players appear stacked on top of each other). At some time during this, the main template disappeared during previews. Page content does appear, and unticking the visibility:hidden box during debug in browser brings the template back. I believe I have seen this posted previously so I am not focusing on this issue here but perhaps it is relevant. Finally, when I expanded the glossary (which also initially played fine) to include all terms, it seemed to break the LO. When I try to preview the LO, the template does not appear nor does the page content. Changing the visibility in browser debug does bring back the template but not the navigation buttons or the page content. Also, when I tried to export the LO it no longer sends the files to a zip; rather, it creates an empty zip file and puts the files in the USER-FILES folder for the project. One other point to further confuse is that if I change the default engine to Flash, much of the resource shows up properly. Any ideas? I was hoping to demo this for final vetting in two weeks but in this state it is unusable. Thanks for any help that can be provided. I can attach xml or other files if that is required for further digging. - Greg Reader This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.

So try this one, and select a video on the first page, and check what works and what doesn't work. Let me know if I can help you further. By the way, if you copy this data.xml into the project, be sure to copy this file over preview.xml as well! Tom Op 30-9-2013 23:27, Greg Reader schreef: > Thanks for the quick replies.

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first.

I removed the glossary entirely and will go with abbr tags to add them in on a page-by-page basis. Also noticed that I left that video page at the start (since removed), so I guess it was the appearance of a blank screen was a bit of a red herring. After these changes, I still could not export a deployment so I started to work through some of the pages and noticed that once I deleted the larger video pages (2 references to the same video, the video being ~60MB) the deployment went fine. There is another video in the LO at about 40MB in size that I left in without issue. Do you happen to know if there is a set limit at which XOT is not able to compile an export? Would it tend to be a single file over a certain size that would cause this type of issue rather than the total size of the project? -Greg ???: Tom Reijnders ????: ?Tuesday?, ?October? ?01?, ?2013 ?1?:?35? ?AM ??: Xerte discussion list Hi Greg, I found two mistakes in the Glossary, Bunk and I already forgot the other one (they had a Term, but no definition) Furthermore, the first page is a textVideo page without a video (the video now says 'Select a video') and xerte tries to find out the type of 'Select a video'by looking for its extension, which obviously doesn't exist. So try this one, and select a video on the first page, and check what works and what doesn't work. Let me know if I can help you further. By the way, if you copy this data.xml into the project, be sure to copy this file over preview.xml as well! Tom Op 30-9-2013 23:27, Greg Reader schreef: Thanks for the quick replies. Attached is the data.xml file for the LO. Reducing the number of entries does allow the resource to load but doesn?t seem to affect the other issues. I?ve been moving between machines, one Win7 but using MAXOS and the other Win8.1 using a local XAMPP setup, for development. I don't have any knowledge of xml so am a bit at a loss for troubleshooting. Thanks, Greg Reader Windows ??????? ???: Greg Reader ????: ?Sunday?, ?September? ?29?, ?2013 ?7?:?20? ?PM ??: 'Xerte discussion list' I am in the final phases of completing a LO in XOT 2.0 and I have run across an array of issues that I am hoping someone may be able to help me solve. I moved this resource from Captivate to Xerte and would hate to have to move it back at this point. A bit of background first: The resource is for language learners who will not be connected to the internet so the final deployment is planned to be via USB flash memory. The includes a large glossary of terms (100+ terms), video (mp4) and audio (mp3). As it will be on flash, higher quality video and audio is preferred. HTML 5 is also preferred as we may deploy online at a later date and want users with Apple devices, such as iPads, to be able to access the resource. At the start of the project I added the text and images and all appeared to preview fine. I exported a SCORM 2004 deployment to demonstrate the resource and it too ran fine in Moodle 2.2. I then added the audio and all still seemed alright. Adding the video, however, brought about some unwelcome changes. The video will be embedded in multiple places as it is used for different parts of the instruction. The video would play fine once but afterwards it would not load (nor would it load on subsequent pages with the same video). The video is also on a quiz interaction page, on which it appears to be embedded twice (two video players appear stacked on top of each other). At some time during this, the main template disappeared during previews. Page content does appear, and unticking the visibility:hidden box during debug in browser brings the template back. I believe I have seen this posted previously so I am not focusing on this issue here but perhaps it is relevant. Finally, when I expanded the glossary (which also initially played fine) to include all terms, it seemed to break the LO. When I try to preview the LO, the template does not appear nor does the page content. Changing the visibility in browser debug does bring back the template but not the navigation buttons or the page content. Also, when I tried to export the LO it no longer sends the files to a zip; rather, it creates an empty zip file and puts the files in the USER-FILES folder for the project. One other point to further confuse is that if I change the default engine to Flash, much of the resource shows up properly. Any ideas? I was hoping to demo this for final vetting in two weeks but in this state it is unusable. Thanks for any help that can be provided. I can attach xml or other files if that is required for further digging. - Greg Reader This message and any attachment are intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential information.

So, sorry for the delay. Several remarks: - I had corrected the Glossary. There is no need to remove it. There shouldn't be a limit in Xerte. There our however several limits in php. The most important one being memory_limit, as the zipfile is built in memory. (I changed that in the upcoming 2.1 release) You can change that in the php.ini file of your XAMPP/MAXOS installation.

The fact that it all works via guest is good means Xerte is working fine. The fact that with the integration path set you get redirected to login to moodle is good that means the integration path is correct. Change auth_config.php to moodle and comment out guest. Close all browser windows or try a different browser and vist the xerte url - you should be redirected to moodle. Login to moodle and if you have xerte in the moodle directory you should be redirected to Moodle. If it's in a separate directory the in the same browser window visit the xerte url and you should be logged in? If not then xerte isn't picking up the Moodle session data. The fact that you mention inetpub suggests this is Windows and IIS? I don't have access to a Windows/IIS setup right now but someone else may be able to advise if there is any IIS configuration settings to control/restrict session data?

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0.

If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

It strikes me that with all the interesting stuff that happens in Universities, there is an opportunity to stream more events live, and promote a rolling programme of live events, inviting interaction with the audience as the event happens. So far, it seems that most universities have the capability to stream events live, but only a few promote any sort of coherent rolling programme of events. Does anyone know of any good examples? Do you think there is an opportunity here - or do you think it would be resisted for various reasons / non-reasons?

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

So far, it seems that most universities have the capability to stream events live, but only a few promote any sort of coherent rolling programme of events. Does anyone know of any good examples?

Close all browser windows or try a different browser and vist the xerte url - you should be redirected to moodle. Login to moodle and if you have xerte in the moodle directory you should be redirected to Moodle.

So far, it seems that most universities have the capability to stream events live, but only a few promote any sort of coherent rolling programme of events. Does anyone know of any good examples?

While not for university, there is fairly regular live streaming of professional development workshops across the country via our national adult English language training for immigrants website www.tutela.ca (Tiki, with BigBlueButton for webinars). It has been gaining traction over the past few years and I believe this February they will be having their first online conference. I work for a provincial government and we have also been exploring live streaming of language training courses for small regional communities which do not have sufficient numbers of immigrants to support a face-to-face classes. The main challenge there has been with technology and with educating the service providers. Colleges and universities are welcoming of the technology but it has been a challenge to get the instructors embrace the technology and adapt their approach to delivering language training to fit a hybrid/blended model. Demand is definitely increasing amongst communities and administrators - it is the instructors who require the most encouragement for adopting the model into their own practices.

While not for university, there is fairly regular live streaming of professional development workshops across the country via our national adult English language training for immigrants website www.tutela.ca (Tiki, with BigBlueButton for webinars). It has been gaining traction over the past few years and I believe this February they will be having their first online conference. I work for a provincial government and we have also been exploring live streaming of language training courses for small regional communities which do not have sufficient numbers of immigrants to support a face-to-face classes. The main challenge there has been with technology and with educating the service providers. Colleges and universities are welcoming of the technology but it has been a challenge to get the instructors embrace the technology and adapt their approach to delivering language training to fit a hybrid/blended model. Demand is definitely increasing amongst communities and administrators - it is the instructors who require the most encouragement for adopting the model into their own practices. I hope that by having more instructors participate in live streaming professional development activities, they will become more open to the technology. -Greg Reader ________________________________ From: Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk To: xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2013 13:54:28 +0100 Subject: [Xerte] Re: OT: Live Streaming Events Thanks.

The fact that it all works via guest is good means Xerte is working fine. The fact that with the integration path set you get redirected to login to moodle is good that means the integration path is correct. Change auth_config.php to moodle and comment out guest. Close all browser windows or try a different browser and vist the xerte url - you should be redirected to moodle. Login to moodle and if you have xerte in the moodle directory you should be redirected to Moodle. If it's in a separate directory the in the same browser window visit the xerte url and you should be logged in? If not then xerte isn't picking up the Moodle session data. The fact that you mention inetpub suggests this is Windows and IIS?

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0. If I set auth_config to: $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle"; Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping. If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

The fact that it all works via guest is good means Xerte is working fine. The fact that with the integration path set you get redirected to login to moodle is good that means the integration path is correct. Change auth_config.php to moodle and comment out guest. Close all browser windows or try a different browser and vist the xerte url - you should be redirected to moodle. Login to moodle and if you have xerte in the moodle directory you should be redirected to Moodle. If it's in a separate directory the in the same browser window visit the xerte url and you should be logged in? If not then xerte isn't picking up the Moodle session data. The fact that you mention inetpub suggests this is Windows and IIS?

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0. If I set auth_config to: $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle"; Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping. If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

Changed the auth_config.php to moodle authentication. I then went to the xerte url and was redirected to moodle, entered my AD creds and was accepted into moodle.

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0. If I set auth_config to: $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle"; Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping. If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

Does it all work with auth_config.php set to guest? What happens if you login to moodle first and then follow the link to xot? The fact that you are being redirected when visiting xerte first suggests the integration path is correct - did you add that during install or via management.php? Can you try adding a cookie prefix in Moodle and try again? Although watch that it will log people out when you change it so do it off-peak. Just a few thoughts.

I am logged into moodle where I then click a link I added (http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits) which should take me back to the xerte site..... (the link is there as I have not installed xerte within moodle) 3. When I click the link or enter the xerte address in the same browser window I get directed back the moodle login page. Can someone please tell me where I have gone wrong?

The fact that you mention inetpub suggests this is Windows and IIS?

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0. If I set auth_config to: $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle"; Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping. If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

Does it all work with auth_config.php set to guest? What happens if you login to moodle first and then follow the link to xot? The fact that you are being redirected when visiting xerte first suggests the integration path is correct - did you add that during install or via management.php? Can you try adding a cookie prefix in Moodle and try again? Although watch that it will log people out when you change it so do it off-peak. Just a few thoughts.

I am logged into moodle where I then click a link I added (http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits) which should take me back to the xerte site... (the link is there as I have not installed xerte within moodle) 3. When I click the link or enter the xerte address in the same browser window I get directed back the moodle login page.

In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0. If I set auth_config to: $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle"; Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping. If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

Does it all work with auth_config.php set to guest? What happens if you login to moodle first and then follow the link to xot? The fact that you are being redirected when visiting xerte first suggests the integration path is correct - did you add that during install or via management.php? Can you try adding a cookie prefix in Moodle and try again? Although watch that it will log people out when you change it so do it off-peak. Just a few thoughts.

Otherwise you might as well just make the videos available. It seems a lot of places seem to think it's a good idea, but I can't find many institutions with a programme of live events. I don't see why it couldn't be part of a mooc, in fact I think that's quite a compelling use case as the course particpants can interact with the presenters in real time.

While not for university, there is fairly regular live streaming of professional development workshops across the country via our national adult English language training for immigrants website www.tutela.ca (Tiki, with BigBlueButton for webinars). It has been gaining traction over the past few years and I believe this February they will be having their first online conference. I work for a provincial government and we have also been exploring live streaming of language training courses for small regional communities which do not have sufficient numbers of immigrants to support a face-to-face classes. The main challenge there has been with technology and with educating the service providers. Colleges and universities are welcoming of the technology but it has been a challenge to get the instructors embrace the technology and adapt their approach to delivering language training to fit a hybrid/blended model. Demand is definitely increasing amongst communities and administrators - it is the instructors who require the most encouragement for adopting the model into their own practices. I hope that by having more instructors participate in live streaming professional development activities, they will become more open to the technology. -Greg Reader ________________________________ From: Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk To: xerte at lists.nottingham.ac.uk Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2013 13:54:28 +0100 Subject: [Xerte] Re: OT: Live Streaming Events Thanks.

It strikes me that with all the interesting stuff that happens in Universities, there is an opportunity to stream more events live, and promote a rolling programme of live events, inviting interaction with the audience as the event happens. So far, it seems that most universities have the capability to stream events live, but only a few promote any sort of coherent rolling programme of events. Does anyone know of any good examples? Do you think there is an opportunity here - or do you think it would be resisted for various reasons / non-reasons?

You can do that with Xerte still sitting inside the Moodle directory just by setting auth_config to guest rather than moodle and possibly best to remove the integration path via management too. This isn't likely to be a problem with XOT code - it's more likely a permissions or other server/config/path issue etc. You haven't really said whether any of the projects work now or have worked previously but if the answer to both is no I would try reinstalling or creating a new install with a different name and make sure it's all XOT 2.0 code and not any files from the old Moodle patch that you applied.

The fact that with the integration path set you get redirected to login to moodle is good that means the integration path is correct. Change auth_config.php to moodle and comment out guest. Close all browser windows or try a different browser and vist the xerte url - you should be redirected to moodle. Login to moodle and if you have xerte in the moodle directory you should be redirected to Moodle. If it's in a separate directory the in the same browser window visit the xerte url and you should be logged in? If not then xerte isn't picking up the Moodle session data. The fact that you mention inetpub suggests this is Windows and IIS? I don't have access to a Windows/IIS setup right now but someone else may be able to advise if there is any IIS configuration settings to control/restrict session data?

Changed the auth_config.php to moodle authentication. I then went to the xerte url and was redirected to moodle, entered my AD creds and was accepted into moodle. Clicked the link back to xerte and appear back at the moodle login page, d'oh!!! I reverted what I had changed apart from the management.php page as whenever I log in as admin to xerte management.php the site tells me "the feature is for administrators only". Help!

You need to put the xot version 2 files back e.g. the ones you replaced and then follow the instructions in the moodle readme inside the documentation folder. In short the old moodle patch stuff was built-in to the XOT code from at least 1.8 onwards so no need for a separate patch for ages. You'll need to add the path to moodle config via the management.php page in the integration path field but make sure the install works via guest authentication first. Now that we know the problem I doubt you need to worry about the moodle cookie prefix.

I am using Xerte Toolkits 2.0. If I set auth_config to: $xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Guest'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Ldap'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Db'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = 'Static'; //$xerte_toolkits_site->authentication_method = "Moodle"; Then it still redirects to the moodle page and starts looping. If I login to moodle first and then click the hyperlink I made to xerte it loops back to the moodle logon page. I installed xerte first, and then moodle - my method of moodle integration followed Ron Mitchell's patch guide where there are 5 files to change in the xerte directory: session.php management.php index.php config.php (if using 1.6 or later) \website_code\php\scorm\export.php How would I add a cookie prefix?

Does it all work with auth_config.php set to guest? What happens if you login to moodle first and then follow the link to xot? The fact that you are being redirected when visiting xerte first suggests the integration path is correct - did you add that during install or via management.php? Can you try adding a cookie prefix in Moodle and try again? Although watch that it will log people out when you change it so do it off-peak. Just a few thoughts.

What happens is: 1. I navigate to http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits 2. This redirects me to http://SERVERIP/moodle/login/index.php from where I am able to enter my AD username and password successfully. I am logged into moodle where I then click a link I added (http://SERVERIP/xertetoolkits) which should take me back to the xerte site... (the link is there as I have not installed xerte within moodle) 3. When I click the link or enter the xerte address in the same browser window I get directed back the moodle login page.

It's webbased, so you need to install it on a webserver. You can convert your Mac to your personal webserver by using a Mac version of Xampp (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-macosx.html). In the zip you can find an installation manual. Tom Helen Graves schreef op 15-10-2013 19:33: > Hi, > > I'm very interested in trying out Xerte but I'm confused by > conflicting information.

Try getting the beta 2.1 package, unpackage and replace your /modules folder with the one from the v2.1beta (make a backup first).

We will also be introducing two exciting new accessibility enhancements for the latest version of Xerte toolkits as well as pointing you to detailed guidance on how to mix and match page types to meet different learner needs. Details are here - http://jisctechdis.ac.uk/techdis/events/detail/2013/xertefriday25102013 Please note we have introduced a booking system which involves a one time registration and then a simple booking procedure. The booking system will close 24 hours before the session is due to start so in this instance it will be at 1 pm on Thursday 24th. We'd be grateful if you could share this with any relevant colleagues and we hope you'll join us. Please pass on this information to any colleagues or networks.

That template hasn't got a HTML5 model at the moment. If HTML5 is important then perhaps create a separate LO just for that content and link to it from the existing LO with a prompt that it won't work on non-flash browsers/devices.
