Calling a function in the HTML window the course sits inside - Captivate 8

Hi,

I've scoured the forums for an answer to this but as yet have come up blank.

Our LMS launches a course in a popup window and inside of this the .htm Captivate output file sits.

Currently this pop up window has a button in it which executes a function.  The problem is this button is rather unsightly sitting above the course in the HTML window and I'd like to be able to call this function from inside the Captivate course itself.

The function is called closeSCOContent() and it closes the course window but crucially forwards the user to a feedback page.

So essentially is it possible to call this function using the Javascript function in Captivate 8?

I hope I've explained that sufficiently

Many thanks!

You should be able to call the function, but you'd need to know where it is as far as parenting/children/opener. Sounds like there is a frameset inside of the popup.

Hi,

This gave me the nudge in the right direction I needed, after a bit of basic frameset research I've got the desired functionality.

Huge thanks!
