[Xerte] Re: Google Map page

Fri Feb 10 00:19:58 GMT 2012

Hi Jonathan and Alistair,

I'm not sure about this. I have no folder in my trusted locations settings,
I am using IE9 under Windows 7 with Flash 11.1 (Active X) and Version 10.1
for the plugin.

I'm not having any problems as you can see in the attached screenshot which
shows all this information - so apologies for the size!

In order to narrow down the possible causes, it would probably be best if
you could confirm you have the same problem with my LO. If you do, then it's
something to do with the setup on your workstations, if you don't, then it
must be the version of XoT (or the web-server?) that you are using - I think
that's probably right, but at least it should narrow down the list of
suspects.

My LO (as a reminder) can be viewed at: 

http://vcam-serendipity.dyndns.org/toolkits/preview.php?template_id=2

Please let me know how you get on. I'm actually quite pleased that it's now
working, because it wasn't working properly at all before.

Kindest regards, Thomas.

Thanks for this.

Changes made so I can see the maps now but they look mixed up - see
screenshots.

Hello Alistair,

It depends on the version of Flash Player you have installed as to where you
change the settings. You don't need admin permissions.

On the latest version of flash player, just right click on the Xerte project
screen and select Global Settings, then the advanced tab, then select the
trusted location setting. Add a folder ensuring that includes your project
folder as one of its child folders.

You will need to close and re-open your browser after making the changes.

Alternatively you may be able to get at the settings via control panel /
systems and security / flash player.

Kind regards

Johnathan

Hi Johnathan

I'm getting blanks too on 3 different browsers but I'm not sure where I
change the flash player settings - do I need admin rights to do that?

Hello Everyone,

Thomas thank you for trying this out.

Things are getting very strange.

I have created a brand new pageTemplates project. Added three map pages with
the url's that I used before and which I included in my first email.

I have compared the map.rlm file in the projects model folder with the
map.rlm file in the xerte svn and it is identical.

I published the project, zipped it up and opened it on a different PC that
does not have Xerte installed. At first no maps displayed until I set the
Flash Player Global settings / Advanced / Trusted Location Settings ... to
include the parent folder in which the project folder was placed.

Then on reopening my browser and then the index.htm the maps started
displaying and I got the same results in both Opera and Firefox.

The stoke page displayed a map of nottingham (but if I click on the map a
window opens to display the map of stoke)

The nottingham page displayed a map of southern Stoke on Trent (but if I
click on it a window opens to display the map of nottingham).

The london page displays a map of nottingham but zoomed in more than the
first map so it is mostly west bridgford (but if I click on it a window
opens to display a map of london)

I have attached the zip of the project.

I would be very interested to see if others get the same results with this
project.

Kind regards

Johnathan

Hi Jonathan,

I'm unable to replicate your issue, I'm afraid. I've been 'playing' with the
new features and have embedded three maps and a table which you can view at:

Are there any issues with the Google map page at the moment? Could the
page's performance have been affected by changes to the main xmlEngine.swf
or wizard.swf which I noticed had been updated when I refreshed my svn copy
today? I have installed both of these new files into my xerte installation

I have created a page templates project with a google map page and get
exactly the same results as my individual template page.

Create a xerte project

Add 3 google map pages

page 1 paste in the link for st3 and change the tooltip to Stoke on Trent

page 2 paste in the link for ng2 and change the tooltip to Nottingham

page 3 paste in the link for nw1 and change the tooltip to london

Now save and close Xerte

Now open Xerte and open your project and preview it

I get 

page 1 tooltip stoke on trent but map is nottingham

page 2 tooltip is nottingham but map is stoke on trent

page 3 tooltip is london but map is West bridgford

the links as pasted in are

Page 1 = http://maps.google.com/maps?q=ST3,+United+Kingdom

Can anyone replicate this?
