Sounds like the "start a new file" fix. What happens when you just click on the swf file? Are you using preloading settings? If, so have you changed them to see if it works better? ... View more

I code all of my own SCORM calls so I'm just looking at CP's. I haven't tested this but I think you can execute this javascript: You may have to set the "true" to "false" if neither work. If the module is complete: SCORM2004_Finish("EXIT_TYPE_FINISH", "true") If it is not complete: SCORM2004_Finish("EXIT_TYPE_SUSPEND", "true") ... View more

I just did a test and mine showed up first. Also if you launch the skin in the html page, it will then load the content.swf so your playbar shows up first. Even if you click on the swf it will load the content. ... View more

That's a tricky question. What version of SCORM? I think first you need to see what javascript is being called when you exit. A SCORM finish call should take care of the exiting, but not always. In our LMS running in the 2004 player we had to do a fix for 1.2 courses. We use the following code to capture the URL and return to the course menu. //build an array of the parameters (sessionid, rootclass, etc.) and their values from the current URL. function getUrlVars() {     var vars = [], hash;     var hashes = window.top.location.href.slice(window.top.location.href.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');     for(var i = 0; i < hashes.length; i++)     {         hash = hashes.split('=');         vars.push(hash[0]);         vars[hash[0]] = hash[1];     }     return vars; } function modClose(){ //window.top.close(); //Replace 'window.top.close' command with redirect to course index location using URL parameter values from getUrlVars() function. window.top.location="/learn6.asp?sessionid="+(getUrlVars()['sessionid'])+"&rootclass="+(getUrlVars()['rootclass'])+"&classid="+(getUrlVars()['classid'])+"&c=&courseid=0&mode="; } ...

The way we operate when using Captivate is that the Instructional Design creates the main content in Captivate and I (programmer) create all interactions in Flash concurrently. My storyboards only contain the quizzes and other elements that connot be easily created in Captivate. After years of doing this we have quite an extensive library of Flash quizzes, mostly xml driven models that are easily customizable, so now even are Flash question slides are rapid development. Some you don't even need to recompile just change the xml and include the swf. It took a lot of time to initially create all of this, so I think you may be better of using widgets or simple Flash animations to achieve your goals. ... View more

Create your smartshape with variable text (not as a button), duplicate it, align it with the first smart shape and give it a transparent fill. Make the duplicate act as a button with hand cursor. Group them and it will work. ... View more

I would look into the SCORM cloud, as it is maintained by someone else and the subscription it very fairly priced. LMS's can be very pricey, especially for hosted solutions, see Taleo Learn or Blackboard. ... View more

With AS3, this is one of the typical functions of a movieclip as a button with children, as the smartshape with text would be. When the cursor runs over the text part it loses the hand cursor. The mouseChildren would need to be set to false. I would think this could be easily added by Adobe for future functionality. ... View more

Since you want to make sure that they fill in the comment, I would make default text, "Please enter your comment". Creat a variable with the same text as the default text.Validate your text entry with an action that checks if the entry (which is assigned in a variable) is different than the default text. Hide the playbar or custom next button and then show either when the text is different. ... View more

Set your completion to normal in the advanced LMS settings so that the user is started on the first page when returning for review.. If the user fails why not send them back to the first slide? This would then become the new bookmark. In your preferences you can execute different actions upon failure. Why automatically close the course on the user? ... View more

Your server has to be set up to stream video. GoDaddy does NOT support streaming video. It should be able to accomodate progressive download. That should be the option checked when you import the video to Captivate. If you are using streaming or progressive download, there is nothing to preload. You could also try using a preload script, but it will not work in IE. <video controls="controls" preload="auto">   <source src="sample.mp4" type="video/mp4" />   ...   Your browser does not support the video tag. </video> ...

This sounds like it could be coming from you LMS. If you don't specify a length of time for your course in the SCORM section of your preferences, you course shouldn't time-out. If you are not using bookmarking (resume data) and have chosen to send data at the end of your project, your LMS could definitely time-out since no SCORM calls are being made. ... View more

There was a thread about this a while ago. The solution in that case was that there was something on a master slide that was rendering on top of the button in the HTML5 version. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1349686?tstart=0 ... View more

If I'm understanding you problem correctly, since you are on a master slide, draw a smart shape button somewhere on the slide, set it to pause, no action when clicked, and make it the same color as the background. ... View more

I would create a branching scenario, where you have four links on the first slide, but three are inactive until you complete the first chapter, then activate the next chapter link ans so on. When you get to the end of the chapter have the course navigate back the slide 1. This way it will work with SCORM. In a manifest you can specify that SCO's are completed in order, but it is not a requirement for 1.2 LMS's to handle this and 2004's implementation is iffy. If you want to hand code a SCORM 2004 manifest good luck. I wrote all of the ones we use, but they are very basic.
