Question

Captivate inserting a ;

I have created a quiz in Captivate that should email the results back to me. When the email is generated there is an additional ";" at the end of the email address. This messes up my email program (Lotus Notes) so when I send the email it gets returned as undeliverable because "no route to domain server... check DNS configuration. Is there a way to prevent the ; from being added to the email address?

Thanks
Dave

Dave,

Yes - edit the HTM file that Captivate generates and see if you can check
for the ";" in any of the functions/variables. Captivate sends the data to
the JS/HTM file and the HTM file generates the e-mail.

Regards,

Andrew

Thanks for the response.
I have gone into the HTML file but I am unable to find where it is inserting a ";". I have found the variable and get statement but cannot see where it inserts the ;. Any thoughts?

The process works when sent from Outlook but not from Lotus Notes (in case that helps).

The simplest things always seam to the biggest pains.

Thanks for any help. It is critical for us to get this method to work in the interim while we are moving to an LMS (at which point this will become obsolete)
