That was it.  I am using the right address now, I hope.

Yes. 

What happened was that in Firefox 3, WebCT loaded the wrong file or misnamed it.  My 
SCORM package was "xerte-test.zip" and it took a long time loading, as expected, but when 
I went to SAVE it within the CE6 Create Scorm page, I noticed that instead of the zip file, it 
was showing an .swf file from my CE6 storage.  I think the Java file requestor is munged.  I 
tried in IE, and it worked fine.  Is there a known problem with Firefox 3?   Since the update 
t0 Firefox3, WebCT tests my browser each time, and complains..

Another quetion: I notice that the mp3 has to load when I run the module in CE6.  Is there a 
way to make it stream?  Alternatively, could I load an swf version of the audio and a player? 
How?

I know a little bit about Flash from using Kool Moves, which I found easier than Flash to 
come to grips with.  So I was really excited to find Xerte, which seems to be Flash centric.  I 
wonder if other Xerte also use Kool Moves.

BTW are you a banjo player?  I play English concertina and traverso.  Love it.
