Hyperlink in question

I am using Captivate 6.  When a user answers a question incorrectly, they should know that right away and I want a hyperlink to be associated with the question that goes to a site where they can research the answer.

Thanks for your response.

I added a Text Caption to the bottom of each question

     To learn more about this, click this link:

When they respond with an incorrect answer, they can got to the web page and then click next.

They only have 1 chance to answer the question.

Is there a way to have the Text Caption only appear when they have answered the question incorrectly?

That would be helpful and prevent cheating.

You're going to be out of luck trying to do this with Cp6. 

Even if you upgrade to the current Cp8 version which allows you to use Smart Shape objects as feedback captions on your quiz slides, this still doesn't allow you to include hyperlinks in the text of those shapes.

However, what you MIGHT consider doing is to use Advanced Actions in Cp8 to show a hyperlinked Smart Shape during the Quiz Review, or have that hyperlinked Smart Shape appear AFTER the user has clicked to dismiss the normal feedback caption.  Still a bit clunky but it might be sufficient for your needs.
