Thanks John

I have tried the link provided but the same fault is occurring (small video clips are playing in full screen mode), so happy to wait for a fix :-)

Many thanks

Jason

Hi Jason,

I think Julian's mail filter might have been a little zealous... there wasn't any javascript in the file that I received... which would explain the missing content ;-)

Can you wait until Monday/Tuesday? If not then you can try the latest file here http://code.google.com/p/xerteonlinetoolkits/source/browse/branches/2.0/modules/xerte/parent_templates/Nottingham/models_html5/perspectives.html?r=1051 (click view raw file) on the right...

I tried Julian's file but now the video page doesn't load at all, I'm using Chrome. I get the title and slide number but its devoid of content.

Will revert to the old file until there is a fix.

Thanks

Jason

Importance: High

Guys,

I'm not convinced that this code will fire consistently:

        //tweak for swf player for flv having full screen button active in thumbnails
        $(window).load(function () {
                $("#thumbHolder .thumbMedia").append('<div class="thumbCover"></div>');
                $("#thumbHolder .thumbCover").css({'position':'absolute','z-index':'1'});
                $("#thumbHolder .thumbVideo").css({'position':'absolute','z-index':'0'})
                $('#thumbHolder embed').attr({'wmode':'opaque'});

                $("#thumbHolder .thumbCover").each(function() {
                        $(this).width($(this).prev().width());
                        $(this).height($(this).prev().height());
                });
        });

It works when you go straight to that page (when window loads!) using &page=xx but not if you navigate to that page later...

I think it needs to be incorporated into perspectives.pageChanged with a check on the .built flag of the page... Sorry, I would have a go myself but i'm swamped today and tomorrow so it will be the weekend at the earliest...

You should be able to replace modules/Xerte/parent_templates/Notitngham/models_html5/perspectives.html with the attached file,

Let me know what happens,

Julian

Hi Julian

Is there a timeframe for this fix?  It would be good to include this page type for a number of our Learning packages, would be grateful to know if there is any progress.

Many thanks

Subject: [Xerte] multiple perspectives playing in full screen mode

Hi everyone

How do I stop "multiple perspectives" page types from playing in full screen?

The first video plays ok in the larger frame size but when I click on the other smaller frames they play in full screen mode.  I cant see my text that I want learners to read. This works in Flash in 1.8 but not having much luck in html5.  Please see my example below.

Many thanks
