Play It Now! ready right now

elmer | August 30, 2005 - 16:37

This is the official launch of this particular new feature. 'Play It Now!' uses an embedded Flash player to play the MP3 directly from the website. Along with download capability and RSS2 feed with enclosures, 'Play It Now!' gives the author and the reader maximum flexibility in accessing podcasts on Classcaster. If you want to hear me go on about it a bit, just chose a link below.

Testing the Play It Now! feature.

elmer | August 30, 2005 - 13:45

Update: It worked! So, now you call up, record, save and the MP3 is playable from the site, downloadable, and included in an RSS2 feed for podcasting. Nice:)

If this worked right, there should be an embedded Flash object that will play the MP3.

Another test for enclosures.

We have a couple of odd things going on here, but I hope this works. There should be an enclosure tag in the RSS2 feed.

Spell checking

elmer | August 19, 2005 - 08:44

Steve Nelson wonders about spell checking for posting. There are 2 really good answers to this question that add spell checking to any text box in your browser. For MSFT IE, try ieSpell, and for Firefox/Mozilla try SpellBound. Both do the same thing: add spell checking capabilities to browser-based text boxes. The cool thing is that they work not just with Classcaster, but with any web form including web email clients:)

Also, Steve, you may want to enable comments on posts that ask questions:)
