Quiz Results - Attachment Only?

I have upgraded to CP2 and was testing the e-mail reporting
function and now see the results as an attachment; is this the only
way now or is there a setting to allow results to be sent in the
message body? I have a server-side script that parses the body to
port the results to a SQL DB and this would require a re-write....
Anyone? Thank you.

You might try this debug test.
Open the HTML page.
Insert the Javascript code --- alert(gstrEmailBody); --- in
the sendemail() function. Will look like this --
function sendMail()
alert(gstrEmailBody);
document.emailForm.action = 'mailto:' + gstrEmailTo +
'?subject=' + gstrEmailSubject
document.emailForm.elements["Results"].value = "\r" +
gstrEmailBody;
document.emailForm.submit();
Save the HTML page.
Run the test.
When you click the send e-mail button in the test, you should
get a gray box with the following content---
Core Data
"Status","Location","Raw Score","Max Score","Min
Score","Time"
"failed","5","20","50","0","00:00:26"
Interaction Data
"Date","Time","Interaction ID","Objective ID","Interaction
Type","Correct Response","Student
Response","Result","Weight","Latency"
"03/01/2007","08:30:34","Interaction10082","Quiz10030","choice","A","C","W","10","00:00:05 "
"03/01/2007","08:30:38","Interaction10245","Quiz10030","true-false","true","false","W","10 ","00:00:04"
"03/01/2007","08:30:42","Interaction10284","Quiz10030","fill-in","the
word","kkk","W","10","00:00:02"
"03/01/2007","08:30:46","Interaction10322","Quiz10030","long-fill-in","yes","yes","C","10" ,"00:00:03"
"03/01/2007","08:30:52","Interaction10356","Quiz10030","matching","0.A,1.B","0.A,1.B","C", "10","00:00:05"
The exact content will depend on the number and types of
questions.
If you see the box, click OK. If this box shows the correct
data then you problem is the browser or server does not support the
javascript code for sending e-mail.
The javascript code is ---
document.emailForm.action = 'mailto:' + gstrEmailTo +
'?subject=' + gstrEmailSubject
document.emailForm.elements["Results"].value = "\r" +
gstrEmailBody;
document.emailForm.submit();
You should check with your IT staff to solve this problem.
As stated before, if you publish as a stand alone, you will
not get any details or attachments.
Hope this helps.

  • How do i prevent a slide that is after the quiz results page from showing?

    HI guys, I am trying to achieve the following in Captivate 6:
    1) Users answer questions. They have 2 attempts to pass with 70% or above.
    2) At the quiz results page, if the score is less than 70%, users get a button to retake the quiz. After the second attempt, If the percent is 70% or above, they can click a button to view a certificate or click a button to see a transcript. If the percent is less than 70%, they click a button to get a transcript but NOT a certificate.
    How can i accomplish this since i cannot add buttons to the quiz results page.

    Thanks for the feedback.
    I am trying to implement a simple hide/show routine and it does not work. This is what I want.
    I have two buttons (one to save a certifcate and one to save a course transcript).  I want to display those on the quiz results screen. The user has two chances to make a 70% or more on the quiz.
    If the user obtains less than 70% score on the first try, on the quiz results slide I want to hide the button to save the certificate but keep the one for the transcript. If the user passes with 70 or more, then both icons remain on screen.
    IF the user obtains less than 70% after the second try, the quiz results should only show the transcript button. If they pass with 70% or more, then both icons remain on screen.
    I tried advance interactions to hide or show the icons in the "on slide enter" on the quiz results screen but that did not work.
    This is an example of what i tried. if cpQuizInfoQuizPassPercent is less than 70% hide btncert. I also tried hiding the button and then assigning actions to show the button on passing the 70% but that did not work either.
    Suggestions?

  • Continue Button on Quiz Results Slide NOT Working Properly

    I'm experiencing a functionality issue with the "Continue"
    button on the Quiz Results slide:
    Situation 1: After initially completing the quiz, I need to
    click the "Continue" button on the Quiz Results slide only once to
    advance to the next (and last) slide in the quiz movie. This is
    fine & works as I would expect.
    Situation 2: After initially completing the quiz, if instead
    I choose to review the quiz, later when I get to the Quiz Results
    slide, I need to click the "Continue" button TWICE to advance to
    the next (and last) slide in the quiz movie. This does NOT work as
    I would expect.
    Any idea why only 1 click is needed in the Situation 1 while
    2 clicks are needed in Situation 2? Any way to fix Situation 2 so
    that only 1 click is needed?
    Thanks much!

    CapManZ,
    Whether the Continue button on the Quiz Results slide
    requires one or two clicks is mysterious indeed. See
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=67&catid=464&threadid =1302278
    for another discussion about its misbehavor.
    Actually, the number of clicks required depends on how long
    you wait after the Quiz Results slide appears, prior to clicking
    the Continue button. In your situation 1 you probably answered
    questions rather than using the skip button, so you viewed the
    question slides for a while prior to arriving at results. In your
    situation 2 you probably used the Skip button to zip through the
    slides to return to the results screen. Try this. In situation 2,
    when you get to the Quiz Results slide, instead of clicking the
    Continue button, go get a cuppa joe and then see if a single click
    will work. If so please let me know.
    I've experimented with a Captivate 2 multiple choice quiz in
    a slide show that contained only 10 questions and the Results
    slide. I added a text caption with fade in and fade out enabled
    (the default) to the Results slide. I found that after the caption
    fades in, one click on the continue button advances the slide. So I
    used the caption's appearance to help measure the timing.
    In the tests below I skipped as rapidly as possible, pausing
    at various slides to see how it affected the single click
    threshold.
    Skip all slides: 28 sec
    View slide 1 for 60 sec and then skip: 28 sec
    Skip to slide 5, pause 30 sec, and then skip: 13 sec
    Skip to slide 10, pause 30 sec, and then skip: 2-3 sec
    Answer each slide (took more than 30 sec): 2-3 sec
    Skip all slides, click Continue as fast as possible: 2-3 sec
    I also reduced the number of question slides in the quiz and
    skipped all slides.
    7 questions: 18 sec
    3 questions: 7 sec
    I believe the threshold value (the duration required before
    clicking the Continue button advances to the next slide) is
    composed of two durations which add together to determine the
    threshold. The Result's slide's timeline probably sets the
    threshold's lower limit. Clicks prior to 3 seconds are ignored.
    Time per slide and number of slides left to go sets the upper limit
    for the threshold. The slower the movement, the lower the
    threshold.
    Several conclusions:
    This probably isn't a situation in which the first click is
    ignored. Instead the first click reduces the threshold's value to
    the lower limit. The second click would then typically occur after
    3 additional seconds, particularly if the user is surprised that
    the first click didn't work and pauses slightly. A very fast
    additional click on the Continue button is ignored as well.
    Long quizzes will cause more complaints about the issue
    because of what you experienced. It typically takes longer to
    answer the quiz than review it.
    Perhaps there's a workaround that would alert the user that
    the Continue button is ready for clicking. I'm thinking that since
    the text caption fade-in coincides with being ready to continue, an
    image or the like might do the trick. Any suggestions out there?
    Humm, a better alternative might be to show some images of
    snacks on the results slide background. Through suggestive selling,
    the user realizes it's time for a break and clicks Continue after
    returning with that cuppa joe. And the sound you hear? It's the
    Captivate developers giggling if they read my conclusions. Too bad
    they're mum, since some real info might make it easier to make
    Captivate behave. Ah well.

  • How do I only get certain questions appear in the quiz results?

    I have created a course through Captivate 6, throughout the course there are questions to guage the learners attention. There is also a quiz at the end. However, captivate includes on the questions throughout the course on the quiz results which I do not want to happen.
    Can anyone advise how I can only get certain questions appear on the quiz results please?

    Branch aware turns off the playbar in 6 (not in 7 any more, at least not for me).
    Could you explain more in detail what you want, because I don't understand it. You want the user to answer all questions, but the score should only show what? If you don't want some questions to have a score added to the Quiz total, you can indicate that in the Properties of that Question slide.
    And please, tell the exact number (3 versions of 6), and also if you have to report to a LMS?

  • Quiz results not appearing in email body

    Using Captivate 2, I set up a quiz that is supposed to send
    its results to e-mail. In the Quiz Manager, on the Reporting tab, I
    have the following settings:
    Enable resporting for this project (checked)
    LMS: email
    Report Pass or Fail: report status as defined by report data
    Choose report data: report quiz results and slide views
    Report score to LMS as: score
    Reporting Level: report interactions and the score
    Then I publish my project. When I run the .htm, no e-mail is
    generated. The only way I can get an email to generate at all, is
    if I click on the Pass/Fail Options tab in the Quiz Manager, and
    set "If passing grade:" action: send email to: (the email address).
    This does generate an e-mail, but the body is blank, with no
    results reported within (even though I specifiying that I want the
    data in the above settings).

    I'm trying to do the same thing... having set up a small
    quiz, a pass mark, and asking for an email to show the score only,
    nothing is generated running it locally. But after uploading to my
    server and running it from there I do in fact get an email. The
    data is in an attachment POSTDATA.ATT which Windows doesn't know
    how to open. But if you change the extension to csv then XL opens
    it fine and reports as requested. The user is identified by the
    sender of the email.

  • How to send quiz results to a web page?

    Okay, this should have taken 2 minutes, not 2 hours. Very frustrating. Here is the situation:
    * Downloaded Captivate 5 Trial Version
    * Created based quiz (which took forever to figure out how to set the correct answers -- HORRIBLE user interface for setup, but that is another issue)
    * I want the results sent to a web page. I will code the web page & database calls, etc. to handle the information (I am a web developer). Just need the information sent somewhere!
    Several big issues here:
    1. When setting up a URL for the "Pass or Fail", nothing happens. User not taken anywhere. No "Post Results" button shown. The Captivate file just ends and that's it. ??
    2. Finally figured out that I needed the "Internal Server" option chosen to have a Post Results button shown. Okay.
    So when I click Post Results (after answering the 5 questions correctly), I am shown a login box. Why? What is this for? This is not needed. I am going to an INTERNAL SERVER. It is none of Adobe's business what this person's name/email is. What gives? Okay... anyways, I enter my own Adobe login information. It then says "Connecting..." then I get a Status Message that says "Unknown Error". Keep in mind this will be used by a general audience, of which approximately 99.9% will not have an Adobe ID, nor should they need one.
    How I can easily have the Captivate file redirect the user to pages like this: Confirm.aspx?pass=yes or Confirm.aspx?pass=no.
    I don't need anything fancy. But I do need something that works. This is terribly frustrating and I'm about to say it just doesn't work. Please tell me I am wrong.
    Thank for your time and for reading this.
    -Randy

    The Quiz Results slide's Continue button actions are set under Quiz Preferences > Pass or Fail > If Passing Grade etc. By default, the Continue button is set to just continue on to the next slide after the Quiz Results.
    After the user clicks the Continue button on the Quiz Results slide any Pass/Fail actions you've set up there will be evaluated and executed.
    So if the user achieved a passing score, and you set up an action such as Go to URL in Current Window for that case, then the user should find themselves redirected to that URL.  If there was a different action for Failure, and the user failed, then that should happen.  But either of these will only happen after the Continue button is clicked.
    I tested this by setting www.google.com as the go to URL and it worked.  To see if the URL is the issue, try using another URL that you know everyone can get to.  If that works, try to find out why the URL you want to use is not working.  If no URL works, something else is interfering with the action.

  • Want to open another project from Quiz Results - can't get it to work.

    I have been trying to get my course to open another project (an instruction slide) after the user completes a quiz and it is not working. The course always closes after the quiz results. I have set the Project End Options and the Pass or Fail options to all open another project (the instruction slide), but instead, after the user clicks 'Continue' on the quiz results page, the course always closes. What could I be missing? (Am using Captivate 5.)

    Just finally getting my head above water and am able to respond and update. Yes, I was using a tool called RELOAD to update the imsmanifest file. Actually a great tool that I can recommend now that I worked out the kinks with Captivate. Please see this post for more information. http://www.caddicks.com/blog/2012/02/17/how-to-publish-a-multi-file-captivate-project-as-a -single-scorm-course/#comment-249711
    Here's a quick summary of how I ended up resolving this - I can't even remember all the different options I tried until I settled on this! I never resolved the issue with launching another project from the quiz results page, but found a workaround that works even better.
    The course starts with a brief introduction module. The 'Continue' button on the last slide is set to launch another project, which opens the course's 'main menu.'
    The 'main menu' project has several buttons that launch appropriate sub-topic projects.
    On the last slide of each of the 'sub-topic' projects has the 'Continue' button set to launch the 'main menu' again. Each of these had quiz questions, but feedback was set at the question level only - no quiz results page.
    The last option on the 'main menu' project was a 'Course Completion' button - which launches a project containing the final quiz. (NOTE: This was always the only project that had the "Show score at the end of the quiz" set to display under Preferences / Quiz / Settings. After a lot of hair-pulling, I realized that it wasn't necessary to open another project to accomplish what I wanted to do, which was return the user to some basic instructions before they retook the quiz.)Here is how the last project was set up.
    The first slide is a content slide with instructions for the quiz. When the user clicks the "Back" button from this slide, it will launch the 'main menu' project. 'Next' simply goes to the next slide.
    Slides 2-5 are quiz questions
    Slide 6 is the quiz results slide (turned on under Preferences / Quiz / Settings). Buttons are: Review Quiz and Continue.
    Slide 7 is a content slide with instructions on what to do next. This slide has a text button that I called "Retry" and under Properties / Reporting for the button the "Include in quiz" is NOT checked. The Retry button takes the user back to the first slide in the quiz.

  • Can we remove the Continue button from Quiz Results?

    Hi Everyone,
    Is there any way to remove the continue button from the Quiz Results page?
    I have a captivate file in which there is a Thank you slide at the end after the Quiz results slide. Now, here's the problem - The user is just finishing the quiz and closing the browser tab - which is not showing the completion status inside LMS. The user must need to view the Thank you slide  -  so that the LMS can respond as "Completed" status.
    Now, I want to remove the Continue button on Quizzes result slide so that user doesnot need to go ahead to next slide to complete the course. And i will put the Thank You message here in Quizzes result slide only.
    Can I remove the continue button from the Quiz Results page so that it can be the last slide?
    Regards
    Vikas Sharma

    Removing the Continue button from the Quiz Results slide is NOT a good idea in my experience.  Clicking the Continue button triggers functions in Captivate to terminate the quiz and commit the score to the LMS.  If this button is not clicked, Captivate may not be sure the person has decided they're done with the quiz and wants their score to be captured by the LMS at that point.  There are often other buttons on the Quiz Results slide to offer the user the option of Retaking or Reviewing the Quiz.  Only the Continue button is designed to take them further beyond the Quiz Result slide.
    Like yourself, I have also found learners often fail to grasp the importance of the Continue button and don't realise they need to do something extra (beyond reaching the Quiz Results slide) in order for their score to be captured.  So what I usually do is rename the Continue button to something more meaningful such as: Register Your Score, or Record Quiz Results Now.  Having a name like this (and making the button nice and large and bold so that it's not easy to miss) clearly tells people that they need to click this button if they want their score to be retained.  It's just a simple change, but it practically eliminated all issues we had with people just closing down their browser when they saw the Quiz Results.

  • How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

    How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

    Use a normal question, and do not add the score to the total score. That will give you a correct score at the end. But the total number of questions, that system variable will still take into account all questions. You'll need a user variable, and calculate its value by subtracting 1 from the system variable cpQuizInfoTotalQuestionsPerProject. Same for the progress indicator if you want to show it?
    Customized Progress Indicator - Captivate blog
    If you want to allow Review, you'll have to tweak as well. You didn't specify the version, and all those questions I now mentioned.
    And my approach, since you talk about only one question: create a custom question, because you'll have total control then.

  • How do I include the quiz taker's name in the Quiz Results email?

    I'm using Adobe Captivate 4. I want to include the quiz taker's name in the Quiz Results email. Is there to do this?

    My experience with Captivate is minimal. Once again, the version that I am using is Captivate 4. I am not using an LMS. When someone takes a quiz and submits it, the email that I receive only contains the quiz ID and the test results themselves. I would like to be able to have the results include the user's name or at least his/her email address. Is their something that I can do with a variable to accomplish this? Or, is their some sort of third party widget available?
    Thanks Gene

  • Adobe Presenter 9 quiz results reporting to LMS

    We have over 50 users of AP9, and currently use a Success Factors LMS. Our AP9 quiz results are currently reporting only the cut/mastery score to the LMS student transcript, not the actual score the student gets. Any ideas? I've read all the help and tutorial material and it does not address the actual score reporting anywhere. What are the correct quiz and Reporting options settings to get actual scores reported for a final quiz? We SCORM wrap v1.2. Our LMS suppport says it is pulling what AP9 sends- which is the cut score. When we test as a learner, we can get 100% but if the mastery score is set at 80% we see as a learner we acheived 100% but only 80% score goes to our transcript. Does AP 10 function differently in this aspect than AP 9?
    Thanks, Elizabeth

  • Help! Multiple quiz results in Results Analyzer erase previous results

    I'm very new to Captivate and having trouble with the Quiz Results Analyzer. I have 3 separate quizzes and have included the button for students to "post results" and log into an Acrobat account, then I can view their scores in the Analyzer.
    I'm using C. version 6, and in the Quiz Preferences Settings, I gave each quiz a unique name, objective ID and interaction ID prefix.
    Everything works when students take quiz 1, but when they take quiz 2, the Captivate Quiz Results Analyzer completely replaces their orginal quiz score. Then when they take quiz 3, it replaces their quiz 2 score.
    Did I miss something in Captivate, or do I need to configure something differently in with Acrobat or the Analyzer?  I honestly don't remember where/how I set up the Analyzer results, and now it doesn't seem to give me any way to change things (ie, add a course, etc).
    I will admit that originally I didn't give the quizzes an Interaction ID prefix (only unique objective IDs). But I've corrected that and now I have different ID prefixes for each one, yet after retrying the quizzes, I still see they are each replacing the old scores with the most recent ones.
    Any ideas what I am doing wrong?  Thank you!

    Hi there Edgers
    Really hoping someone can help me out with this problem. I've used Redesigns code(Seen Below) to design a quiz in Animate.
    I have two problems, when the first question is answered, it skips to the 3rd question instead of the 2nd. I am not sure why this is as I have have checked for overlapping buttons, there are none and it does not occur on any other questions, only the first. Second problem is the quiz reult is not showing up at the end, I have the "grade" and "result" divs in my timeline but when they are reached they do not change to display the quiz results.
    Help would be much appeciated

    As a side note, this quiz appears at the end of a 8 section mulitmedia learning environment. The code obove is the only code present in the "creationcomplete" window, the rest is done in the timeline.
    George

    In you if statement you need to change  the if statement from i=7 to i==7;  when you compare you need the double equal sign.
    var FinalScoreHolder = q1 + q2 + q3 + q4 + q5 +q6 +q7;
              if (i==7){
                        //var FinalScoreHolder = q1 + q2 + q3;
                        sym.$("grade").html("You scored "+FinalScoreHolder+"%");
                        if (FinalScoreHolder >= 90) {
                        // play the timeline from the given position (ms or label)
                        sym.play("pass");
                        } else {
                        // play the timeline from the given position (ms or label)
                        sym.play("fail");

  • HELP! Lesson with 2 branches locking on Quiz Result screen when learner (of either branch) fails.

    I have a CP6 lesson which is essentially two parallel branches, with only the following slides in common:
    A "Welcome" slide
    A slide where the learner chooses his branch
    A "Congrats!  You completed the test" slide
    A "You did not answer the questions correctly" slide
    Once the learner chooses his branch, he is given a 5-question test.   If he fails the test, he is taken to a short lesson, specific to the content tested in that branch.   When he finishes the lesson, he is taken BACK to the test to try again.  If he fails, back to the lesson, then back to the test, etc.  until he passes.  (I set max attempts to "10" under "Quiz Preferences")   When he passes, he is taken to the "Congrats" slide and the lesson ends.
    I set the last question in each branch to go to the Quiz Results slide (success or fail), and I set the Quiz Preferences to jump to the "Congrats" slide if passing, and to the "You did not answer the questions correctly" slide if learner fails. 
    That's how it's supposed to work anyway.  And that's how it WAS working until I made a change somewhere and mucked it all up. 
    What is happening instead is:
    Passing test (both branches) takes learner to Quiz Results and the "Congrats" slide just fine.
    Failing test (either branch) takes learner to Quiz Results and then gets stuck there.    (In fact, if I click the "Continue" button a second time on the QR slide, the lesson still doesn't advance but all the graphics I put on that slide disappear, which is weird and not at all helpful.)
    The branching looks ok to me.   What am I missing? 
    I know I need to upgrade, and we will be soon, but not before this lesson has to be published -- which is, of course, yesterday.
    Help?  Anyone?

    Figured it out.  Had "Required" on the "Quiz: Settings" page set to "Pass Required - The user must pass the quiz to continue".  That kept the learner from continuing beyond the "Quiz Results" slide and looping back to the didactic content and retaking the quiz.
    I changed "Required" to "Required - The user must take the quiz to continue."   Learner is able to loop back/read/retest as many times as needed in order to pass the quiz.  All is well.  

  • Submit quiz results to one single .csv file

    How can I submit quiz results (over 200 people will be taking
    my captivate quiz) to a single .csv file?
    Right now, the quizes are submitted to my email address and
    attached to the email as a POSTDATA.ATT file. I have to manually go
    into my Outlook and save attachment as "FnameLname.csv”. So
    each quiz taker will have an individual .csv file! So I will have
    over 100 emails and over 100 .csv files!!!!!
    How can I make the quiz results submit to a single
    Quiz_Results.csv file on my web server instead?

    The way I would do this is to submit the scores into a
    database. In between Captivate and the database you'll need
    middleware (.asp, asp.net, ColdFusion, etc.). This middleware
    receives your data from Captivate and processes it - submitting it
    into the database. You can then write another middleware page that
    produces a report (web page table, or exports .csv file) with the
    data stored the database.
    Another possibility is to use Captivate's built-in SCORM
    functionality and submit user scores into an LMS, then run reports
    and export .csv files from your LMS.
    Sorry - I don't think this functionality is built into
    Captivate to join multiple records into one .csv file.
