Several hotspots each to an external link in each pano?

Yes, but I have just added hotspots to one pano atm.

Just done a quick test.

Two panos in the tour. Each has three hotspots, one of each type (polygon, rectangular and point) and each with a different external link.

It all works fine in Firefox on Windows XP SP3.

I'm using the latest version of APT - V1.1 beta 7:

John,

Yes I can confirm this, I have had a problem accessing external URLS from hotspots. I have noticed this for some time, with versions APT 1.1.0 beta 6 & 7, using IE and Firefox on Windows 7.

Brian

Is there anything unusual about those problem URLs? Some 'odd' syntax, perhaps?

I had no problems with hotspots linking to external URLs when conducting a quick test using Beta 7 and FF with Windows XP:

MediaVets, I have tried several urls and none work, here are two of the urls that I have tried that do not work, please could you try them and see if they work or not on your system, the syntax on these does not look unusual.

Brian,

Now I am very confused.

I created a new tour with hotspots linking to your URLs.

The hotspots don't work, on local playback.
.......

I checked that my test tour I did the other day with hotspots linked to external URLs still worked - and it does.
.......

I hand edited the XML for the above working example and changed my original URLs to your URLs on the hotspots - and it works, the hotspots link to your external URLs just fine on local playback..
........

I am now at at a loss to explain what's going on.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce this behavior, nor locally, nor on external servers.
Thus it will be quite difficult to investigate it. We think this may be due to text encoding of URL in xml.
Could anyone who reproduced the bug tell us :
embedding xml or not?
which browser?
if known : which text encoding in web browser and in text editor?

thanks

Hi
Same problem with the "logo" feature. The link to a website does not work. Operated locally on firefox last version, XP SP3.

Bonne chance pour cette recherche difficile !
