Trying to get the OOo2 extension v2 beta2 to work for a new site hosted at an eZ partner using eZ publish 3.7.2 on SLES9.

Using Mozilla 1.7.12 and Firefox on OpenSuSE Linux 10.0, the following pupup menu entries is missing:

http://ez.no/community/contribs/import_export/oasis_open_document_extension
shows a Screenshot with a popup menu with the the three bottom entries:
* Export OpenOffice.org
* Import OpenOffice.org
* Replace OpenOffice.org

If these meny entries possibly are available in IE only, will they become available on Linux too?

Hi Terje,

this menu is available under Linux also. It's a standard eZ publish JS popup menu. Verify that the extension is enabled. Also try to clear the cache after the extension is enabled.

Hi Bård,

I use a remote eZ publish hosting provider.
Where do I verify if OOo2 is enabled?

A follow up solution:
My fault, the menu did work correctly yet also on my OpenSuse 10 desktop. The especially thing was that I had to left click once with the mouse pointing directly on the folder icon, and then the popup menu pop apperar. If I click on the folder name instead, it doesn't work.

Rgds,
Terje

That is the "standard" behavior. Left click on the icon to get the context menu, left click on the node name to view the node.

Thinking of it, it might make sense to display the context menu on right clicking on the link as well? Or is that evil because it'd override the browser context menu?
