1: Image in introductory page is too big

Hi Ernie
I've got another question for you today :-|
In LAMS 2.4 you can add an introductory page to a lesson, with an image of the sequence. If this image is too big (i.e. the sequence is very long) the browsers aren't able to display the entire image and, which is more important, some browsers don't display scroll bar. [Of course, this depends on the dimensions of the screen, too, but I can't check my students' computers].
Maybe this problem could be fixed by adding the attributes of height and width (e.g. 80% and 80%) to the img tag in the page.
Below I copy-and-pasted part of the html code of the introductory page, but I couldn' find it in my server files. Where is this code? And my innocent question: is it possible to simply add attributes to solve the problem? If it is too hard to do, no problem, I won't use it.
Thanks a lot! :)
Luca

Hi Luca,

This is a good point.

We have a way of doing this already for another interface. So we'll use this method we have to ensure that the image is not too big for display.

Thanks,

Ernie

BTW Luca, how big (number of activities) is your design? Thanks

Hi Ernie!
My design has about 55-60 activities and some of them are branching activities... Too many! :)
Thanks
Luca

That is indeed quite a lot! :-)

Just as a curiosity... are you doing all your course in one long sequence? If so, I imagine you get the students to do some activities each week and then they continue with the lesson the following week?

Thanks

Ciao.
Yes, it's a 10-hour-sequence, more or less. I have students in very different contexts, so I'll open the sequence next week (hopefully :-) ) and I'll let them completely free to choose their pace without any constriction. They will have time until the end of May to complete it. In my opinion it's important that they could see the whole sequence, because they will choose the pace in a more conscious fashion.
Ciao!
