Broken web link in published file

Sep 19, 2011

Hi there!

So here is my problem. We created a project, published it to a local drive, and follwed the zipping instructions to upload/unzip the file to our server for students to access. When the file is published to the local drive, the web link works fine, but when I put it on our server, the link no longer works. A cursor displays indicating that it is clickable, but when clicked it seems to just refresh the current slide. Do you know why this might be happening?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks, Brian!

This is a bit of a different scenario. We have faculty members working within the tool (saving locally), and we (the ID team) then go to their computer, zip the files, upload them to a server, and then unzip the files. It works locally, but not in the actual environment that will be used by students.

I turned off the popup blocker, but no luck. I tried copying and pasting onto the screen, using insert hyperlink, and using a web object to open an external webpage, but that did not work either. Could it be that I have to save it as a ppt as opposed to a pptx? Then publish the file?

Thanks again!
