Scrolling Text Widget - HTML5 - CP8

[Kurrykid-jzpfVq]

I am having problems with the variable data populating in the Scrolling Text Widget when publishing as HTML 5. It works with SWF.

The HTML5 is not showing it as unsupported. I've done some searching and found Javascript code for scrolling text (my way of determining if it would work with HTML5).

Any thoughts on what could be going on?

Thanks.

Can you explain more in detail? How did you check the value of the

associated variable to the Learning interaction (suspect you are not using

the older TextArea widget)?

[Kurrykid-jzpfVq]

Yes, I'm using the Learning Interaction and putting the variable in the variable box of the Interaction. I have it down to the basics and just trying to get the variable in there by clicking a button and assigning the variable with a new value.

I have confirmed it works if I publish and test with SWF.

Thanks.

I will double check tomorrow. Only latest version allows to control the

display if the variable.

It's because there is no listener on the text area widget for the variable change. Once the text area is drawn, it's basically static.

[Kurrykid-jzpfVq]

What's strange is that it appears to be listening for any input in the text area. If you put a variable in the variable name and then display it on the screen, as you type in the text area, the variable updates.

Also, the way I want to use it works in SWF.

Thanks.
