And remember that the associated image will try and load the results of your script, because what’s really happening is the image will try and load (expression(script(--yourcode--), engine), engine); So with a bit of nous you could probably do some funky stuff and still load the image… I have wondered whether having an optional parameter for all pages, initCode / exitCode would be useful as  way of executing custom code when pages initialise / exit.

It offers a COMPLETELY UNSUPPORTED way of executing code you type in the editor, because you could, if you really wanted to, do things like script(_level0.engine.score = score); but experiment at your own risk.

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Video problem in IE8 with .flvYou could probably type (unescape(FileLocation + ‘media/file.flv’)) since it gets expressioned. That might in fact mean you could do all sorts of interesting things… From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Video problem in IE8 with .flv  Someone on FlashCoders seemed to have the same issue and had to use unescape(path) in code.Since you are using Toolkits, best if you could remove any spaces or odd characters from the apth and see if that solves it. From: brichard at glam.ac.uk

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Video problem in IE8 with .flvSadly, I can't provide a link for you. It's on our test server which is restricted to on-campus access only. The presentation was made by one of our test users. She's used a media > video page with the video file path being FileLocation + 'media/Beth Pearce staff induction.flv' I can see that there are spaces in the file name. Could this be causing the problem?

Subject: [Xerte] Video problem in IE8 with .flvHi, I've got an intermittent error with .flv files not loading in Xerte in IE 8. This screenshot shows how the page should look with the video loaded correctly (XerteVideoNoError.png): <XerteVideoNoError.png>   This screenshot shows the error (XerteVideoError.png): <XerteVideoError.png>  As you can see the video fails to load and those three graphics appear instead. However, if you navigate through to the next page, then return to the video page, the video will load. Also, this does not happen every time in IE 8. I've not seen this error in other browsers. The video is a short introduction, a few minutes at most. Has anybody seen this bug, or similar, before? Are there any solutions/workarounds?
