Been making some more updates to the player, so that it can pull in html resources – and not all of the html tags need to be explicitly defined in the XSL (see point 2 in last entry). I;ve tested it with more content and have been trying with ‘full’ html documents – ie one’s which have all the head, meta tags etc. So far some of these are working and others aren’t. I;ve found that if the html resource has a doctype tag then the xml parser moans about the xml not being well formed – which is what it should moan about I guess.

I’ve made a few updates to the login and course selection pages, so that any errors – such as username not existing, or the username exisitng but not currently assigned to any courses – are handled more elegantly. By elegantly, I mean that the user doesn’t just get the whole java error message printed on screen!

I’m making some changes to the error handling, so that all error messages can be stored in a log file, rather than just appearing either on screen or in the JBoss server window.
