Hi Julian

Thanks for the quick responses - its quite frustrating.

[cid:image002.png at 01D10014.3DBBAA70]

I have actually used all of the above and the offline Zip version is on the college webserver. Both archive and offline give the active x/java error messages when trying to open locally. The offline zip will run from the URL but there are 4 instances of Xerte just displaying the small X placeholder boxes rather than the images but they all display fine within Xerte and have been added with the insert image and not just copied/pasted in?

Cheers
Julie

Which export package are you choosing?
There is an option for local deployment, if indeed you want to deploy it locally.
Otherwise, put it on a web server if that's what you will do with it and try it from there,

HTH,

Julian

Hi
Everything is working brilliantly thank you. I like this version and found it really easy to work with and only touched on a few of its many features but we are just having trouble running from the index file. I have selected the HTML option rather than Flash on the Xerte settings but here are the 2 errors. (We are working on a college network here but I did save it all locally on my C drive)

What happens exactly? I'm a bit confused by 'active x controls in explorer', what do you mean?
What js errors do you see, and when?

Can you post screenshots? Tom knows the export code the best, but will need a bit more info to figure out what's going wrong.

Is everything else working OK?

Hello
We have upgraded to Version 3 and I am having trouble with every form of export with active x controls in explorer, java script errors etc. I need to publish my learning object on our college webservers so other people can run and download it as part of a project we have taken part in I have used the archive one and offline with no success. . Can someone please assist?

Thank you
Julie

Upgrading is the best option for most organisations. Exporting and importing into a new install isn't practical or necessary for organisational installations with lots of existing LO's. Just follow the upgrade instructions and obviously back-up first then test before restoring access to everyone.

As Julian says very few issues with existing projects especially if already version 2.1.

Yes, LO's made in XoT 2.x are 1 on 1 compatible with LO's in XoT 3.0
You just need to export the LO's as zip and import the zips in XoT 3.0

I have used this on a new server. The old server had XoT 2.0 installed. The new server has XoT 3.0 installed.

However, I have not tested an udate from XoT 2.x to XoT 3.0 on the same server. Maybe Tom can respond on that?

rob

Hi

Before I ask our IT folks to upgrade XOT to version 3, can I be reassured there is backwards compatibility? i.e. Will LOs we made in version 2 still be editable and usable in version 3?

AIso, is there anything in particular we need to be careful of when upgrading?

Thanks
Oli
