OK I see some really nice Virtual Tours, however I'm using IE 6 and Microsoft decided to make it so you have to click the APPLET to "Activate and use this control". Its very annoying because as a viewer you think you can click on a link once but you have to actually click it twice. I noticed it tonight when I went to http://www.virtualscarborough.co.uk/towntour/towntour.html Thats a beautiful site by the way :)
Anywho I know many use Netscape and Firefox which has no problems but alot of people are using the latest version of IE 7 or at least ver 6.0.2
OK now for the fix. I'm posting this because I love tourweaver and sorta feel at home with other VT crazies :) Here are the simple steps to get rid of that stupid dotted line.
1. Download the applet_fix.zip file from http://www.ihearyadevelopments.com/virtualtour/save/applet_fix.zip and unzip the single file (applet_fix.js) to your folder in which you publish your HTML files and zipped skin file. This file is a JavaScript File. You should have something like
Resource "Folder" - Scene "Folder" - applet_fix.js - Skin_yourvirtualtour.zip - Tourviewer_yourvirtualtour.html - yourvirtualtour.html - twviewer.jar
2. Open up your Tourviewer_yourvirtualtour.html into your favorite HTML editor. You will see something like this. between the dotted line
