Hi all
Many thanks Ron for sorting that for Sarah. She's worth sorting things for and it's a great learning object...

It now works on all browsers for me but it is still slow in loading for Chrome - in fact it wasn't till I went past it and came back that it worked - however when I reloaded the page it was v quick.

And - Sarah - if you're happy for me to pop it on the Xerte showcase area let me know

Hi Sarah
just use a tool like Format Factory http://www.pcfreetime.com/ you can drag all of your .wav files onto the Format factory window, select convert to mp3 and it will convert them each in turn maintaining the file names except creating mp3 copies.

Now here's a very early xmas present to save your weekend... as I accessed your project folder yesterday to investigate the issue I've just done this for you and directly uploaded the files in one go which you wouldn't have been able to do. All you have to do is visit the properties of that LO and delete the wav files (which will now show as unused) to save space.

I'm sure Alistair and others will report back as to whether this has indeed fixed what seemed like an image issue

Perhaps you'll provide alistair with a copy given your weekend is now saved!
;-)

HTH
Ron

Thanks, all, some really useful suggestions in there (and a long weekend ahead converting all my audio!).

Regards
Sarah
