story.html not opening in ASUS Transformer tablet

Sep 14, 2012

Hi, I've created a short storyline piece that I want to be able to open offline on the tablet. I've tried publishing it for LMS, WEB, CD etc. ported it over from my PC to the tablet and it still doesn't want to open the file. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Mike

Hm...I only have an iPad, but I don't know if tablets allow you to open individual exe or html files, so it won't store natively.  I think you'd have to host it on the web and access it from your tablet.

Maybe there's an app that let's you test web projects and you could store/open individual files with it?  Are you more or less trying to make an app for your tablet?

Hi Mike I had exactly the same issue with my ASUS Transformer tablet and I ended up using a usb drive.This was after I had downloaded Chrome and Dolphin to try and replicate the browser, as flash is already installed. I have not given up yet and have some other ideas, anyway hope that helps? Maybe worth putting in a request for a revised mobile app for Android not to self! Chat54

I had the same issue: trying to open the story.html file wouldn't work on my Asus Android Tablet. This issue was solved by downloading "SWF Player - Flash Fileviewer". Once installed, the story.html file will load into your default Android browser and properly display the local Storyline files stored on the tablet for offline viewing.

Hope that helps!

We ended up resolving our issue by updating the firmware of the tablets and then installing a Flash workaround for them. These articles may be helpful:

The SWF player was more of a 'band-aid' solution.

Cheers,
