    I've been fairly successful, but had to write a ton of JavaScript to make it happen. Everything on a page needs to be named specifically since the script rewrites all of the tab indexes and has keup and keydown listeners.

    I actually just built templates in HTML and JavaScript to control everything which works perfectly and we migrated a project out of Captivate and into pure HTML.

    For clarification you said you migrated everything out of Captivate. Did you mean you did not use Captivate at all?

    That's exactly what we did. It difficult at best to try and write scripts for the way Captivate lays everything out.

    I rebuilt the course, which looks exactly like the original Captivate and created a menu that operates the same, but it is accessible. It's much easier to build a course in HTML since you don't need to place every object with x,y locations, things just bump into the container or each other.
