Glossary entries do not appear in pop-up window

Glossary entries do not appear in pop-up window

Hi all, i'am new to Moodle, could you help me out with this problem.

On my installation http://tat-praxis.de/moodle/ i used Moodle 1.7.+ and i used Moodle 1.8.+ on my local XAMPP installation. Under each installation i have the same problem.

When I tried to view the content in the Glossary Pop Up window i only see the “close window” button.


What can i do?

Thanks in advance

Helmut

Just to confirm and elaborate on Helmut's post. I too am new- but I thought I had tried out the glossary feature and found it working. With the latest install (1.8+), I get the same behaviour. The link seems to be correct- and pointing to the specific entry:

http://openbook.kolel.org/mod/glossary/showentry.php?courseid=3&concept=Torah

but instead of the actual definition, I get a generic search window with the word as a link that requires a second click.

Is this an issue with permissions or the specific theme?

Hm I don't understand what you mean. Could you please post a screen shot showing exactly what happens?

Here is a little more detail. I have two glossaries: one is the main glossary (global) and one is a secondary glossary specific for a course. From the course, the secondary glossary (not global) has the words' definitions displayed from its glossary (as it is supposed to), but words that link to the main (global) glossary, instead of the definition display the term that links to the definition.


The problem seems to be the "&displayformat=dictionary" at the end of the link
ie.
http://openbook.kolel.org/mod/glossary/showentry.php?courseid=1&concept=Siddur

is missing. If you manually add this bit to the generated link the definition DOES display.

Easy instructions on how to modify the showentry.php script to add this snippet would solve the problem. Help anyone?

http://openbook.kolel.org/mod/glossary/showentry.php?courseid=1&eid=97&displayformat=dictionary

and that displays the proper definition.

However, when I click on a word in the course text that has automatic linking, the link is:

http://openbook.kolel.org/mod/glossary/showentry.php?courseid=1&concept=Siddur

which shows the correct entry- but requires a (in my mind, unnecessary) click.
