I have a Flash based Drag and Drop Knowledge Check that I want to use in a Lectora course. We use XML for the question data. We do this so that we only need to change the XML file and can re-use the Flash file over and over again without changing it.
The Flash file correctly grabs the XML data as a standalone Flash file and when published to HTML. See URL http://www.icfhcs.com/temp/XMLIssue/standalone/flash-swf-files/index.html
However, when I include this in my Lectora it will not "see" the XML data. The XML file is added as as Additional file. In doing this ,the XML file resides in the root html folder. I add the Flash file as an animation.
The following are checked:
Initially visible
Always on Top
Auto Start
Preload animation when published to HTML
No parameters are loaded
The Flash file itself looks for ../screenName.xml" to load. Knowing that the swf file itself will be in the images folder, it needs to look up one folder level for the xml file that is loaded by Lectora into the root html folder during publishing. See this URL. It is only showing the default data ("Answer - 123")
See URL http://www.icfhcs.com/temp/XMLIssue/html/index.html
The problem is that the XML file is NOT being read. Any ideas on what I need to do?
I've also tried adding in a flash parameter but that doesn't seem to work either.
