<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>That is the problem, that adn the fact that flash only supports a subset of the html you will embed. It's easy to read in any html page from the web, but harder to do a relaible job formatting it. The wikipedia one works OK, but it still loses bits of the article, which is why there is a link to the full article at the bottom. Handling *any* web page would be tricky, but you can start by pasting in the URL to any web page in the wikipedia page type and seeing what happens, as all that does is load and parse the html, dumping it into a textfield,</FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT size=2>I've managed a workaround for the problem which involves going to the<BR>'customisation' pages in Goggle Maps via the 'Link' hyperlink and then<BR>pasting the URL for the <A href="http:///">http://</A> option from the embedding code and selecting<BR>the check box 'Link to Map'. I'm quoting from memory on this as far as the<BR>names of the links are concerned. The 'src=' link doesn't work, neither does<BR>the full 'embed' code.<BR><BR>At recent training sessions which I've run across the eastern region in the<BR>UK, and which have proved very popular, it has been suggested that the next<BR>version of Xerte OnLine toolkits could contain a generic 'embed' page as this<BR>is becoming increasingly popular. Customisation for different embedded<BR>applications could be handled by a drop down list, but at least the interface<BR>would be less confusing for non-technical users.<BR><BR>Kindest Regards,<BR>Thomas<BR><BR>RSCs - Stimulating and Supporting Innovation in Learning<BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<BR>[<A href="mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk">mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk</A>] On Behalf Of Costas Calcanis<BR>Sent: 15 July 2009 18:24<BR>To: Xerte discussion list<BR>Subject: RE: [Xerte] Xerte (minor) issues<BR><BR>Yes, Wikipedia, RSS, YouTube and Flick pages work fine.

So<BR>we seek for your help and advice.<BR><BR><BR><BR>1. How can you delete a not used media of a Xerte resource? When<BR>viewing the project properties, the X that is supposed to delete the "not<BR>used media" doesn't seem to do anything.<BR><BR><BR><BR>2. Is it possible to know what access rights a user has to a project<BR>that is shared to him/her? It would be really helpful to know if you have<BR>read-only or full access rights to a shared Xerte resource. Because if you<BR>have only read-only rights, then you could lose any changes you might have<BR>attempted to make.<BR><BR><BR><BR>3. Finally, we haven't been able to make the Google maps component<BR>work. Is there a way to make this work?<BR><BR><BR><BR>We are using Xerte online toolkits v1.0.2.<BR><BR><BR><BR>Regards<BR><BR><BR><BR>Costas<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>______________________________________________________________________<BR>The views expressed in this e-mail are those of the individual and not<BR>necessarily of Redbridge College.
