<P><FONT size=2>Hi<BR><BR>A few small things have been bugging me about Xerte desktop, though<BR>these may have been 'resolved' in later versions - I'm using v2.5.4<BR>(yeah, I know, but there was a project I needed to finish and didn't<BR>want to add the complication of a newer version):<BR><BR>1. It would be good if File | Publish were to prompt you for a publish<BR>directory, rather than just dumping all files in the current directory.<BR><BR>2. How come a published web doc with .htm extension works fine and loads<BR>the application, but change the extension to .html and only the<BR>preloader is called? Is ".htm" hard-coded in the Flash and/or the .rlo<BR>file? I can't see a mention of "htm" in rloObject.js or the generated<BR>.htm file.<BR><BR>2a. Could a Xerte app be placed in a .php doc?<BR><BR>3. Even if you save a Xerte doc then exit, you still get prompted to<BR>save. A check for file alteration would be nice.<BR><BR>4. A basic metadata tagger with SCORM export would be useful. I mean<BR>really basic, just title, keywords and description. For that matter, IMS<BR>export with basic metadata would be handy too. Or you could have basic<BR>metadata in a File | Properties dialogue, say.<BR><BR>5. A syntax checker, much as Flash has, might be useful for script<BR>chunks. Still, that might make folk lazy... ;)<BR><BR>That's all - just had to get them off my chest :o)<BR><BR>Cheers<BR><BR>Fred<BR><BR>Fred Riley<BR>Learning Technologist<BR>School of Nursing, Midwifery and Physiotherapy, University of Nottingham<BR>Vcard: <A href="http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/nursing/sonet/about/fr_uon.vcf">http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/nursing/sonet/about/fr_uon.vcf</A><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Xerte mailing list<BR>Xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<BR><A href="http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte">http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/xerte</A><BR></FONT></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
