Hi,

The projects on squeakcmi.org do not open on the olpc. Not
the ones that have been there nor the sample one I put there that was done on my
home computer using etoys/olpc and uploaded with the tag 'olpc'. Is it a problem with the browser?

I have been able to move olpc projects in and out with email and with a jump drive but would like to make the resources on our site useful on the olpc too.

When I try to open the 'olpc' project from our website on my home computer I get this message:

Reading an instance of MorphExtensionPlus:
Which modern class should it translate to?
Let me type the name now

Let me think about it

Let me find a conversion file on the disk

What is the answer?

Thanks,
Kathleen

You need to change the javascript on your website - in particular the
displaySqueaklet() function, which needs to check if it is running on
an XO, and if so, simply redirect to the project itself rather than
embedding it on the page. There is no Squeak browser plugin on the XO
currently.

The next Squeakland release will be able to read OLPC projects, but
the current one can not.
