What does the scorm_support.js file do?

I am using Captivate 3.

Online course is loaded to an LMS as a series of 4 topics within a course.

Each slide contains 5 standard links to other info sources (htm files or pdfs).

These links all work in in one topic (topic 2), but 2 of the 5 links do not work in the other three topics.

Of course all links are identical in the way they are created.

When the material loads to the LMS the SCORM (1.2) files replace any prior version.

Wondering therefore if the scorm support.js file controls the way links to files from the captivate source operate?

(I have no js skills so Can't interpret the scorm support.js script)

Appreciate any advice here.

Correct answer RodWard

The scorm_support.js file contains the JavaScript code for the SCORM API that sets up the communication between the LMS and the course module being played.  This API is a mechanism that allows scoring and interaction variables to be passed back and forth between the LMS and the course.  It's not really related to the way links are called.
