I suspect the answer to this is "no", but just in case - in an XOT resource is there any way for the browser back button to take the user though previously loaded pages, rather than taking them back to the site they viewed before opening the resource?

Hi Neil
This functionality was added to the Bootstrap in a previous update and you can see that working in your installation?
I believe there are plans to add it to the XOT template too and we have another developer day at the end of the month so I'll add this to our list of topics to discuss and look at.

Thanks, Ron.

I noticed it was added to the Bootstrap template during one of the latest updated (which, by the way, has vastly improved the functionality of this resource: xerte.cardiff.ac.uk/play_4069 - staff were always asking if they could link to a specific page/example, and they were always clicking out the resource when trying to get back to the main page).

I'll wait to hear whether anything come out of the developer day for XOT resources.

Thanks

Hi Neil

This is something I've been working on so it will be available at some point soon. The changes will include being able to use back/fwd buttons in browser and the ability to add ids to pages so you can link to a specific page without it linking wrongly if the number of the page changes. I also want to allow you to mark pages as 'stand-alone' pages where they are taken out of the normal linear list of pages but can still be linked to via page links.

I don't have an estimated date for when this will be available yet though.
Thanks
Fay
