how do you embed jquery in a Captivate project so that other objects and slides can call the library?

jQuery is already linked to a published Captivate project a long as it is HTML5. You don't have to do anything.

Hi Kris,

Were you able to implement this solution?  Let me know if there are any challenges. Using this solution you will be able to initite/embed jQuery in the start of the course and then write jQuery based scripts throughout the course for all slides and objects.

In Captivate project, on the first slide, go to Actions > On Enter > Execute JavaScript

You can use any of these two scripts:

1.

var scriptLink = '<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>'

$(scriptLink).appendTo("head")

2.

var script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.src = 'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js';
document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(script);
