Question

Hello!

Im using CP9 to create a project containing a quiz which post the results to an internal server using the internalserverreporting.php. After the learner has completed the project s/he will recieve a certifikate.

Is it possible to use the learner name reported to the internal server within the project? So that the learner doesent have to enter his or her name twice (we are not using an LMS). In that case, what is the name of the variable? I've tried googling it for daysbut cant find anything.

If there isint a variable, do you have any suggestions on how to solve this? Perhaps JavaScript?

Thank you!

Captivate creates automatically two user variables in each project (look in Variables dialog box) for use with internal server. One of them is cpQuizInfoStudentName. You can always insert that variable in a text container using the X button in the Character part of the Properties panel.

Thank you Lilybiri, however i cant get it to work.

I've got my certificate slide after the quiz result slide where the user puts in name and e-mail in the grey box (is it possible to change layout/language on this box?).

On this slide i've got a text box with "$$cpQuizInfoStudentName$$ has completed..." but the only text showing is "has completed...".

Any suggestions?

Thank you

I'm sorry, have no experience with an internal server at all, only with LMS.
