Linking to an html page with rich media
October 19, 2006 12:00 AM
Hi all, I was hoping someone would be able to help me out with the following problem:We use an application called CaptureStation to create training videos with linked powerpoint presentations. This simulates a classroom environment.The output medium is html, i.e. you click on the index.htm file and the video along with the presentation in synch appears in your browser window.So far so good!However, I have not been able to find a way of linking Lectora to this successfully. If I create a button with an on-click action to launch the index.htm file, Lectora creates a copy of this index.htm in the 'extern' folder and is subsequently unable to find the dependent files.Fine, so I then try to copy the entire folder into extern, but the same thing happens, i.e. Lectora copies index.htm to the level above my subfolder and the dependent files cannot be found.The only work-around to this that I've been able to discover is to copy ALL the dependent files to the 'extern' folder. This DOES work, but it's messy to have all the files at the top level that contains all the other files that lectora has added. However, the problem truly comes into its own when I try to link to another such presentation html file, I cannot do it as the names of the dependent files overlap.I hope this is clear. I'd be glad to expound further, and thank anyone for taking the time to rattle their brain cells over this :)CheerscasSystem : Lectora Enterprise Edition 2006Win XP SP21 GB RamP4 3.x GHzInternet Explorer 6
