Ooooh, aaaahhh, I think that might be a collection (a zip of html et  
al for Browse to deal with), not an Activity (as in regular executable  
code) though there really should be no distinction if we get this  
feature right. I'll try to take a look later, but it could well be a  
MIME issue, the 'collections' are designated .xol and may well be  
being served differently.

Thanks Tabitha, and hi Fabiana! I've cc'ed David Farning (and the dev  
list) to keep them in the loop on this, I think I saw Dave upload an  
early test .xol to the activities.sl.org site, so he might have some  
inside information.

Will send another email once I've had the chance to re-test in Safari  
with a .xol file.

Regards,
--Gary
