Double click does not work in published simulation. html5

I published my simulation both as html5 and swf.  In the publish folder, I double-clicked the index.html to launch the elearning and then play through it. The issue I noticed is that double clicked did not work in some of my slides.

If I launched the elearning using the .htm extension from the published folder, the simulation accepted the double click action.

    You're double clicking an html file to launch the course?

    What does the url look like when it's launched?

    If it starts with "file:///C:/" you're playing the file locally in your browser, and some functionality won't work.

    You'll likely get no warnings, no errors, it just won't work correctly. I'm not sure if this is the case with a double-click event, but it may be.

    For best results, you should upload your files to a webserver, or test in a dev area of your LMS.

    Yes, I am launching the course from a published folder.

    what I meant of double-click, is the action simulation which I recorded in the slides. For example, the text caption instruction will say "Double click on Incidents".   I am sure that the selected 'double click' check box in the clickbox properties:

    It does not work when I launch the project in html5 or using .index html

    Double-click can be a little tricky to implement in a browser-based environment because if there is any action available to a single click in the same instance then the browser will execute that action at the first click of the double-click.  Essentially, it doesn't wait to see if there's a second click following up close behind.

    That's why we built the Double-Click Delay option into CpExtra:
