Video Page Does Not Function Properly When Published
August 21, 2009 12:00 AM
Dwayne,
I tried your method and everything works except that when I first load the page, all 4 of my videos begin to play as soon as the page loads because of the "on show" action. You don't actually see any of the videos at first, you just hear all the audio for all 4 start playing at once. Once I click on any of the buttons though, everything works as it should from that point on. I just can't figure out how to keep the videos from playing as soon as the page loads.

All of the videos are initially invisible. When clicked, each button has actions associated with them to make them show and play the corresponding video, and stop/hide any of the other 3 videos that could possibly be playing. When I preview the page in Lectora, everything works properly. For example, if Video 1 is playing and I click the button for Video 3, Video 1 instantly stops playing, is hidden, and Video 3 appears and begins to play. I also have a variable set to make the user watch all 4 videos before continuing. After I publish to HTML, the page does not work properly. When published, the first button I click(whether it's Video 1,2,3, or 4) functions as it should, the video becomes visible and begins to play. However, when I click a button for another video, all it does is stop the video that is currently playing. I must click the same button for a second time to actually get it to play. I have tried rearranging the order of my actions but have not been able to get it to work. I am baffled why it works perfectly when previewed, but not after I publish it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jesse
