[Building Sakai] problem uploading .url files via webdav.

[Adam Marshall]

We wanted to put the weblinks in a zip file which is then uploaded and
expanded from within the resources tool. The zip file is in fact an IMS CP
generated by our old VLE.

What about the 'Add Web Links (URLs)' in Resources already? That creates a
resource which redirects to the actual URL.

 

cheers,

We want to do a similar thing, ie, create "a file" that's a URL link and
upload into Resources. After a bit of experimentation, we figured that the
file doesn't actually contain the URL and must be (something like) a pointer
to a database entry that specifies the URL.

I'm connecting sakai to a data server have made a java ap to spider the
server and create directories and links to the server content via
webdav..problem is the .url links don't work from within resources, if you
click them they have to be downloaded and then they are working .url links.
Any ideas on this?
