[Xerte] XOT linking to a graphic via https?

Thanks Julian/Pat

I had tried fiddler but it wasn't showing any errors. However I hadn't tried
in different browsers and it seems my test LO
http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/moodle/xertetoolkits/play.php?template_id=138
displays the image via http and https links in Firefox, Safari and Chrome
but not in IE. So now I'm wondering if it's IE or an IE plugin/add on that's
preventing the image displaying in IE. Does the above link/lo display the
image on the first page for you in IE?

Cheers

Ron

Just delete the s from https

 

That works.

Hi

I should probably know this but is there a workaround to display images in
XOT via a https rather than http link?

 

I was trying to use the graphics and sound page or even <img src= etc in a
text page to display a test graphic created on http://cacoo.com e.g.
https://cacoo.com/diagrams/fSYfwISWBkwJ5gUt-D7A9C.png but it seems like the
https link prevents the image from showing even though it's a public link
which doesn't require login. I know the image can be saved and imported but
that loses some of the advantage of dynamic linking. Is this another flash
limitation or is there a workaround?

 

Cheers

Ron
