Details:

The Sample Run-Time Environment does not properly handle the existence of the “../”syntax properly when it occurs within href URI values within an imsmanifest.xml.  During validation, href values containing a ‘../’ expression will either generate the Best Practice Warning produced when files in the content package are not referenced in the manifest, or an error message indicating the resource whose path contains the ‘../’ could not be found in the package.  This issue was partially resolved in the SCORM 2004 3rd Edition Sample Run-Time Environment Version 1.0.1.  However, the issue still exists for href values which contain the ‘../’ syntax and are referenced through a resource dependency element.
