Send it to me offline at alistair at techdis.ac.uk and I'll see if it
uploads in the JISC TechDis sandpit if you like?

I have tried a couple of images and still does the same.

 

I will try it tonight on my personal p.c. at home - I have a separate
install there and will email all tomorrow. If it works I assume there is
a rights issue on the folders by default at work.

 

Regards,

Grover

ok worth checking - sometimes people fall foul of special characters in
file names or trying to use .bmp or .eps etc

 

Perhaps try another image just to check it's not a problem with the
specific image.

What's the file name and file type of the image you have uploaded?

Is there a particular environment (I,e, java) or setting (enable
macromedia) on the webpage I need to have in order to view/upload this?
I am still not able to see where the error is?

Please help?

I have already tried that. 

 I am importing this from a personal folder and it is showing in the
media folders
(C:\xampp\htdocs\xertetoolkits\USER-FILES\6-guest2-mediaInteractions\med
ia) there is still the same error. What I was asking was whether there
is another reason. Apologies I was not very clear...

Maybe you need to change the rights on your folders?

Apparently this is a rights issue on my personal folders? I searched
online and found a previous comment. Is there a way to get around this
that you can comment on?

Hi there,

 

I am trying to add a hotspot image to a learning object. I am following
the tutorial step by step and whenever I try to import media it gives me
this error? Even when I try to import a background...

 

Please assist...
