1) OnEnter Action:- Execute javascript

var vframe = window.cpAPIInterface.getCurrentFrame();

2) On captivate slide to show the variable value:-

$$vframe$$

3) create vframe variable in captivate variable also.

Hi You are calling a function in the OnEnter action which will return currentFrame value but to show the value on screen you have to assign that function to a variable and then use on captivate stage $$variablevaluename$$.
