i've answered this....<br><br>There are 3 databases changes. 1 of which
doesn't do anything (by<br>default it's turned off in the code), the
second one (LDAP table) you<br>can run without (it is only really useful
if you use multiple ldap<br>hosts - which was supported before, but not
quite as nicely), and one<br>table has an index on one column to make
the database queries quicker<br>- again - it'll make your database
faster, but it doesn't make a<br>difference to it technically working or
not.<br><br>So there is no upgrade path, as you don't need one. I
deliberately<br>barely ever changed the database as I didn't want to
have to write<br>upgrade scripts for people.<br><br>So, two options<br><br>1)
Download 1.7 and run a diff over the two folders. Back up your old<br>site,
then copy all of the changed 1.7 files over.<br>2) Install 1.7 then
write some PHP (or just use mysql, if your SQL is<br>good enough) to
copy all of the content from the old database tables<br>over into the
new database tables (basically a select statement tied<br>to an insert
statement).<br><br>I would do one first, and if you need to do 2.<br><br>1
should take about 10-20 minutes.<br>2 would take more like an hour,
maybe less<br><br>On Mon, Feb 6, 2012 at 10:33 AM, Julian Tenney</div><div><!----><br>_______________________________________________<br>Xerte

especially since this morning, finally, I discovered the “wizard page
package” that allows me to combine template convenience with the editing
functionality which the general Xerte provides. Pretty cool.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p

style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">I still have not figured out the
printing yet, so any input on how to place a print button, ideally on
each page, would be greatly appreciated. Can I include a button in the
interface background image? Or should I add an image, position it and
add the script to it on every page? Do I need to use an event handler
for that?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style="margin-left:36.0pt"
class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">As for the
screen size, on the published Web site / Xerte player, I can change the
screen size from default, to large, larger, full screen and fill window.
When I export my learning object as a Web page, I get the following
results:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style="margin-left:36.0pt"
