[Xerte-dev] Re: FW: [Xerte] Prototype for new Media Lesson template - feedback and ideas needed!

Mon Sep 1 08:39:48 BST 2014

Hi Fay,

Again... I love this template!
On my desktop computer it works great in FF 31.0 and Chrome 36.0, in IE 
11 the side panel doesn't show the map and sometimes the text is on the 
bottom of the panel.
Have to test on my phone and iPad and on the Mac. Will tell you that later.

I have a few questions/ ideas:
I'm wondering if it's possible to have a quiz (or other interactivity) 
and depending on the outcome it will navigate to a new page?
Is it possible to add an interactivity (any) and when you submit the 
video starts again?
Will the template be responsive?
In the light of the new editor, is it possible to use the editor in the 
text- and title fields?
Is it possible to have more pages behind each other in this template?
It's very useful to embed this in a 'normal' Xerte object so your option 
to strip away the top and bottom is very good.
Will this also be possible the other way around?

Bye,
Inge
