[Xerte-dev] Re: How to display page id?

Wed Nov 27 15:50:00 GMT 2013

XOT automatically creates a unique id for each page as it is created, shown
in the xml for the page as linkID. A typical value might be
linkID="PG1366967268944". However this information has to date not been
displayed to the page Author or to anyone viewing the learning object. As
this value was not available to the author I added the PageID attribute to
pages so that connections could be specified for the connector pages.

As I have indicated in a previous post, PageID became redundant for XOT
once Julian implemented the Page Link feature, so I removed the PageID
attribute from the XOT Connector pages, as there were two versions of the
xwd form definitions for the connector pages, one for XOT and one for
Xerte. Since there was only one form definition for each of the
non-connector pages I left the PageID in as an optional attribute to retain
compatibility with Xerte.

If there is any plan to make a unique identifier visiible to the author  /
reviewer then it might be appropriate to use the unique identifier created
by XOT and to dispense completely with the PageID attribute.

In saying this I am assuming that changes to xwd files are no longer being
updated to desktop Xerte.

Kind regards

Johnathan
