[Xerte] Re: XOT exported to DVD - web links no longer working?

[Nicki Keating]

Thanks Pat, that certainly seems to have done the trick (at least, on the one PC I've just tried it on!).  I renamed the index.htm file that _was_ produced automatically when you export the ZIP file, to index.hta and all is well again. 

Cheers

Nicki

i think it needs to be within a .hta on a DVD doesn't it? (which
translates as a security setting)
