Hyperlink from RTF file to SCORM page.
February 3, 2005 12:00 AM
I am trying to put a link into an RTF file that when clicked, will bring up a screen in a scorm lesson. The educational need for this is to link to a page containing citations and referernces for the research. I tried to link to the actual page by creating a link in Word and saving as RTF, then publishing to SCORM.When I launch the course and then go to the screen in question and click the link in the RTF window, I recieve a number of error messages - 'unable to find API adapter', followed by, 'Unable to find the LMS's API Implementation, LMSInitialize was unsuccessful.If there is another way to do this that is SCORM compliant, please let me know. Thanks.

OK, let me ask another way - if I want to use a Text Area (external RTF document) in my SCORM title, and I want to add a link to an existing page in the title, how could I do that?OK, let me ask another way - if I want to use a Text Area (external RTF document) in my SCORM title, and I want to add a link to an existing page in the title, how could I do that?
You can't just go directly to the page using an href because there is exit logic on the page you need to gto through when transitioning between pages. However, if you know the name of the html page you want to go to ... you can issue a javascript:trivExitPage( 'where_i_want_to_go.html' ) to do the exit page. Remember that you are in an inner frame, so you want to access the function from the correct frameset's perspective.Clear as Mud?Tim V
The SCORM course must be properly imported into the LMS and launched using the LMS interface when the student is logged in. Another course or html page cannot be the one to launch it.
