Can't view Storyline showcase demos

Hi Jeff, I was able to view them.  Wanted to add a link to the page to make it easy for others to test it and tell you: Storyline Showcase

Rustled up some direct links to some of the showcase items so you don't have to wait!

Thanks Jill. Yep, those are the links I cannot play. I just tried in Firefox's "safe mode" too, which disables all custom Firefox add-ons. No luck. I browsed to cnet.com to ensure that Flash still played, though, and it did. So, again, the issue doesn't appear to be Flash itself. This is disappointing.

I'll try from another computer. Perhaps there is something on this computer that's causing the issue.

Hi Jeff,

Those demos are served from Amazon S3.  Do you have a firewall that is preventing you from viewing them?

Hi Brian,

I am using Windows Firewall as well as my router's firewall. I disabled the Windows Firewall but still could not view the pages. I am able to view them from another machine (running XP Pro SP3 and FF 3.6) on the same internal network, so the router is not blocking anything.

I also disabled my antivirus software because it runs a proxy that is uses to monitor Web traffic. But even with that disabled, I am still unable to view the demos. I can reach the pages on Amazon -- the loader (the lines zipping around in a circle) displays for the demos -- and I don't get any error messages, such as 404 or a server-side 500 type error.

HEy Jeff, try this one http://www.test.elearninglaboratory.co.uk/story.html

This will rule out if you are blocking amazon s3

Hi Beaker -- er, Phil,

I was able to run that one.    Thanks for providing the test link.

well that means for some reason you cannot view S3 content

I cannot think of a reason though

Well, I hadn't tried every single link. Just the first 4 or 5.  I just tried them all, and I am able to view the following two:

http://articulate.demos.s3.amazonaws.com/dc_fundamentals/story.html

and

http://articulate.demos.s3.amazonaws.com/periodic_table/story.html

*sigh*

Hi Jeff,

Try resetting your browser to the default settings.
