Hey, I am a moodle Manager from the last two years, I recently ran across the need of storing the variables used in one scorm package in the next one too.

I had a module1 that takes the city and some private information.

I want that details to be shared in the module2 aswell.

Making variables global, I've heard it can be done using js. I have some programming knowledge, but I am stuck in this. Please help me. I am using Adobe Captivate for making scorm packages.

    You should check with RodWard as he makes a really cool product called CpExtra. I know one of the features is to store variables locally and then have them picked up by another module. He would know better than I of course.

    Thanks for the rap Paul.

    Details about CpExtra and data persistence options can be found here:

    It needs to be mentioned that using Local Storage persistence means your learner must continue using the same computer for completion of all modules as the data is being stored on THAT computer, not on the LMS.
