FYI – the link to “A handy workaround for making a quiz slide auto-advance” will not open. What’s up?

Hi Kate- the link works OK for me. Maybe it was just temporarily down earlier when you tried… is it OK for you now?

I’m not able to get the zip file for the auto advance. It comes up as empty or corrupted. Is there another way to access it?

Thanks.

Joyce and Kate,

I’ve had some other users experience corrupt file downloads from my site. I’ve asked that they try downloading with another browser or in some cases a different machine all-together. Either way, one of these methods helped correct the issue.

Note: There are known issues with IE7 and XP where a zip file might not download.

I hope this helps!

Joyce and Kate,

I made a modification to my site that should have fixed the IE zip corruption. Please try the download again and make sure you delete the original download first.

Thanks.
