Loading "local" xml files is considered a security risk... from a server it is lower risk...

This will only get worse as Firefox will eventually implement this blocking too which is why we should move to using JSON for data transport...

Yes, template.xml is fine in the validator.

The template.xml file. But I don’t think that is the problem. I think it is browser security as they work online.

What xml files do I run through the validator?

Have you ran the xml through an xml validator?

I’ve found this very useful on occasion: http://www.w3schools.com/xml/xml_validator.asp

Not a feature that I can see. On the tablet I get ‘project data has not loaded’ in Opera, Chrome and the built in browser – only FF will load the LO.

Is this a browser security ‘feature’?

They’re fine when played from a webserver. But they need to play locally on machines which don’t have internet connections i.e. tablet computers in locations with no wifi available. With Firefox on a tablet the LOs will load only the first two videos will play, other browsers get the ‘project data has not loaded’ message.

Played locally on a desktop I get this message in Chrome:

Sorry - I think that may be because access to our xerte server is blocked to users off-campus.

Can you play the LOs from here instead:

There is a problem, I’m not sure it is xerte related:

Hi

When I try to play LOs in any browser other than Firefox (using the downloaded deployment zip) I get a message in the browser saying “The project data has not loaded.” This occurs on desktop machines and the Android tablets I ultimately want to deploy the LOs on.

I’m happy just to use Firefox on the tablet, the problem (which may be related?) is that only the first two videos chosen (whichever two I choose of the four available, it doesn’t matter) will play. Subsequent videos just hang and when I return to the videos that worked a moment earlier they hang too.

These are the LOs I’m working on:
https://xerte.uwe.ac.uk/play.php?template_id=314
https://xerte.uwe.ac.uk/play.php?template_id=303

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Oli
