Exit Button wont work when published

I'm not sure it's the same thing, but we used to have a problem that a SCORM title would not record a status in our LMS (Kallidus) unless we put an extra action on the Exit button in the Lectora title. However, the exit button always did it's primary job without the extra action (i.e. exited the course), but with the new action added we also found that it recorded a status in the LMS. We now always use this for SCORM publication.Here's what to do (based on an entry in our WIKI):CauseThe course will issue the LMSFinish() statement letting the LMS know the user is finished with the course and for the API adapter to collect all the information. At that point, once it has collected all the data, Lectora leaves it to the LMS to close the window. WorkaroundIf the LMS does not have this functionality (like Kallidus) you need to add an extra action to your exit buttons (in addition to the usual exit title/close window) that states:> On Mouse Click> Go To> Web Addressjavascript:window.top.close()This action will close the window. It is recommend that the action is delayed for 2 seconds to avoid the window closing before the API adapter can capture all the information.Keep the original action on the exit button {Exit title/close window} but in addition add this action with the recommended delay.Edited By: montague on 2008-4-9 7:55:56
