Captivate project does not load in IE7

Feb 19, 2009 3:57 PM

Can anyone offer assistance with an IE 7 issue? We have created a project in Captivate 3. We have 8 independent projects generated within a menubuilder. We can open the project in Firefox and everything works wonderfully.... we cannot open the project in IE7. Any ideas?

    Welcome to our community, WriteSoldier

    Sorry, but we need more information.

    What is your output type? (EXE, SWF, SWF/HTML combination)
    How are you testing? For example, where are you running the content from?

    Cheers... Rick

    Hello again

    Where are you testing this? Locally or on a server?

    If you are testing from a local drive, there are a few different reasons links may fail. One has to do with Flash Player Security settings. I'm guessing that isn't the case as you cite that FireFox works and the problem is specific to IE.

    For IE you may wish to see if removing the Mark of the Web from the HTML page helps. It will look like this in the HTML code:
    <!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->

    You may also wish to adjust your IE browser settings by clicking Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab > Security section and enabling the check box labeled: Allow active content to run in files on My Computer.

    Cheers... Rick

    Soldier,
    We just released a product called Launch Pad to address these types of issues - allowing you to quickly build a web page with a menu to play multiple Captivate movies. The page dynamically loads Captivate SWFs into a designated DIV tag. It's compatible with Captivate versions 1-4, with any version of Flash Player. Extensively tested in all major browsers. More information at Launch Pad Website. Take care, Todd
