Can I publish captivate 7 to IIS 7 webserver?

I currently use UPK (oracle based tool) to deliver the eLearning content to end users which is published onto IIS 7 web server.
I want to switch to Captivate 7 to deliver this content but I am unsure if I will be able to publish to the IIS 7 web server.
I know you can publish files to be placed on a platform (this is the same concept as my current set up) but as I am not from a technical back ground I am unsure if I can use the current set up for Captivate. Or will I need a third party app?
The ICT guys here are also unsure as they are not familiar with Captivate.
Can anyone advise please?

In theory yes. But in practice, whether you use HTML5 or not depends more on what kind of device and browser the end user is using to access your content. If you're intending to deliver content to people on iPads or phones then you'll definitely need HTML5 output. But don't expect it to work anywhere near as well as the HTM/SWF output from the same project file.
HTML5 MUST be served from a web server anyway. It's not going to work reliably (or at all) if delivered from a network or CD ROM, etc.

How can I get Captivate to revert to the top of the screen for each slide after published?

I have a project captured in 1024x768. If the user has many toolbars in browser, they have to scroll to see the whole screen. If they use F11 in IE, this virtually eliminate the problem. In MAC however, there is no F11 feature. So, how can I get the published Captivate file to load each new screen at the top scroll position? I have tried changing the html and tried adding Multiple Actions on success to click boxes with Go to Next slide and Execute JavaScript command: onload='window.scrollTo(0,1)'. Neither are working. Any idea how to get the screens to stop holding the previous screen position?
Thanks!

Hi GoldenCJ,
Please remove "onload" from your javascript command. The "onload" event is fired when a html page(or any other page for that matter) is loaded. In your case the page is already loaded, that is, the page is loaded again when the user moves from one slide to another. Hence your javascript will not be executed.
So just have
"window.scrollTo(0,0)" as your javascript.
This should work fine.
P.S. The execution of the javascript is browser dependent and browser settings dependent.I tried with chrome,IE 6 and FF 3.5, it is working. Please make sure that your target audience have javascript enabled in their browser.
Thanks

Captivate 4 can't publish or preview files/sound layers appear black

After re-installing Captivate 4, I was unable to preview or publish files. Additionally, my sound layers appeared as black, empty layers.
I had a difficult time finding a solution, so I wanted to post it here in case somebody else has the same problem.
I was indicating in my searches that I was unable to publish or preview files in C4 and could not find a solution, then I switched the focus of my searches to the audio layers and that's when I found a solution at: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2009/03/adobe_captivate_4_installation.html
Now, I have to say this for anyone who may not be aware. You should always back up your registry anytime you make changes to it and that changes to the registry can cause problems. Having said that, here is the fix I used:.
Adobe Captivate 4 Installation Issues on Microsoft Windows XP
You can use SubInAcl tool from Microsoft to try fixing the permission issues in the Windows Registry.
Close all instances of Adobe Captivate and do the following steps -
1) Download the SubInAcl tool from Microsoft Download Center and install it.
2) Download this zip file
3) Extract the zip file in a temporary folder. You will get two files - restoreRegPermCP4.bat, restoreCP4regentries.bat
4) Copy the restoreRegPermCP4.bat to the folder which has SubInAcl.exe installed. Typically this would be at C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\.
5) Double click to run the restoreRegPermCP4.bat file.
6) Copy the restoreCP4regentries.bat to the folder in which Captivate 4 is installed. Typically it is at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 4
7) Open command prompt and navigate to that folder.
8) Type restoreCP4regentries.bat and press enter.
9) Make sure that all the messages that popup say "DllRegisterServer in 'some dll name' Succeeded"
This should have fixed the registry issues and things should work fine.
I hope this saves someone hours of searching for a solution.

So glad it helped you! I know what you mean about Adobe.
Take Care!

How can I publish a project so that the link to embedded flv is not lost?

When publishing an Adobe Captivate 3 project, the embedded flv file does not play.
How can I publish a project so that the link to embedded flv is not lost?

I am not really sure, if I understand you right. But try this:
Don’t place a picture, but draw a box and use the "Fill" command to put a picture into it.
(Don’t click onto the color swatch, but onto the blue link "Fill".)
In this case responsivness should work.

Using external XML document to update / change text fields inside of published captivate output.

Hello
I currently have a project where the client has requested to have the ability to update the text fields inside the project at a later date.
This is due to the nature of the content changing rather rapidly, i would like to set this up so the client can manage this them selfs.
What would the best way to do this be?
I'm thinking XML, an external XML sheet were by Captivate imports the text from this XML sheet and then displays it within the specific text fields contained within the captivate output.
This way the client would just update the external XML document(cut and paste the text in) and then the text would be dynamically updated in the published Captivate document.
any help would be amazing !
Thanks in advance
Nick

Hi Lieve
But isn't this thread more about an end user having an ability to change text after the Captivate has been published and delivered? I could see where that might be useful if making changes then publishing to create a new output. But I'm interpreting that the situation here is that a Captivate project has been published and delivered, and some mechanism is desired that allows the recipient to modify an external XML file to influence changes in the already compiled Captivate output.
Cheers... Rick

In C4: What determines the max number of slide one can successfully publish?

Using C4.
I am required by policy to use an original PowerPoint file. The total number of slide equals 72 (file size 38,201 KB when completed). The internal customer wants a "kicky" presentation based on her slides, so I must use some of the Captivate tools (e.g. zoom area, highlight box -- about the limit of my skills). And there must be spoken narration, not the text to speech feature. Total time for the 72 slides is 22.5 minutes when all is done. When published the narration is good, but the "kicky" part fails. Specifically some highlight boxes do not appear on many slides.
I deleted the table-of-contents feature. The most unusual tools that I'm using are the certificate widget, and a page turning widget.
I tried breaking the presentation into two parts. Part 1 was 58 slides and I experienced the same behavior. I've not tried part two yet.
In the past, I practiced, on my computer, with the aggregator. Is this the best route? We have no experience hosting an aggregator project on our server. Are there any special concerns about doing so? (I'm not the person who does this. He is out of the office at this time). Would daisy-chaining be a better route? (if so, what is the best source for instruction to do this?)

Again, I did not see the elephant in the room. I neglected to notice a default setting. Once corrected, everything works. My bad.
But, I would still like to know what determines the maximum number of slides on can successfully publish without Aggregator or daisy-chaining.

you open the SCORM all look well, but if you open and URL and return to the
SCORM, the buttons go away.
You need recalled the page in web navigator to see again.

Mass Publish Captivate Projects

This may sound crazy, but I am looking for a way to mass publish captivate files.
I am looking for something along the lines of:
     •Some menu option I wasn’t able to find
     •Command line interface
     •Magic
I have over 350 captivate projects that need to be exported to both Flash and SCORM. Thanks to a series of unfortunate events, my teams past 7 months of Captivate 4 work has recently been re-exported with Captivate 5 just in time for Flash Player 10.1.102.64 to render them unplayable.
I have waited for an update of Flash Player, but our go live date is approaching fast and I can’t just wait on hopes any longer. This leaves me with installing the manual Captivate 5 hotfix and re-re-reporting 371 projects… twice; once in Flash and another in SCORM.
Any suggestions anyone may have would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Carlos

Hi Harsh,
You can mass upload Projects by using the standard Project Template available, just add another Field "GENERATE_DOCUMENT_ID" in the template and set it too TRUE. It will generate the new UNIQUE_DOC_NAME for the new project which you are creating via the Workbook.
Sample workbook sent to you mail id mentioned above.
Hope it helps!!

Can't Place Captivate 6 swf or html5 File into Muse v3.2.

Once I purchase version, can I publish on any website?

Hello! I am brand, brand-spanking new to Captivate and Adobe products. I asked the Adobe Help Desk if, after purchasing Captivate to create e-learning, I could just let my students access them. The Help Desk people told me that, no, my students each had to purchase a license in order to even see the e-learning that I had created for them. I thought this is ridiculous so thought I'd ask y'all what the real situation is. Once I purchase a version, can't I just publish my e-learning to any website I want?
Thanks!

Yes you can just publish your projects to HTML/SWF or HTML5, upload them to a website and give the link to anyone to view in their web browser. The Help Desk person obviously misunderstood your question and thought you were asking if end users could also use Captivate itself, rather than just view the output.

How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?

How can I Publish to a Folder just one of the several websites I have created using iWeb?
it drives me nuts having to emove all the other websites when I want to upload one.
Sparrow

For iWeb, I like to do only one site per domain file. I move domain files out of the Application Support folder and place them inside project or client folders, or in DropBox. Once you duplicate a domain file and begin customizing it, it will load and behave as a separate project/site.
I publish each iWeb domain/project direct to a server via FTP. Sometime I publish to a folder, then upload via FTP manually.
iWeb is a remarkable tool, especially when you work from scratch with blank tamplates
Here are a few of my iWeb sites:

Can XML Publisher add a digital certificate (cert.pfx) via the xdo.cfg file or do I need to upgrade and use BI Publisher instead?

Hi Guys
I need to add a digital certificate to a clients customer statements and invoices. XML Publisher 5.6.3 has been used originally to design the templates as RTF. I have the following questions please...
1. Can an RTF template be used or do I need to convert it to a pdf template?
2. Can XML publisher even be used or do I need to get the DBAs to install BI Publisher. XML Publisher doesn't even have the signature properties in the admin screens that BI Publisher has.
Below is a copy of the xdo.cfg file which currently does not add the pfx file...

How can I publish a photo book using an iPad

Can someone walk me through publishing a hard back photo book using an iPad .I have iPhoto app installed

I don't believe you can create and publish a book directly from the iPhoto for iOS app. You can create a journal which can be published to iCloud, but that's the only sharing feature I can find. There may be third-party software that can do this; the HP Photobook App has been mentioned, but I know nothing about it. Otherwise, if you want to create a book, I think you'll have to transfer your photos to a computer and use software there (iPhoto for Mac OS X, if you have a Mac).

How can I publish an ics file to a remote server from my calendar server?

I am running Lion Server and have Calendar Service up and running. I have an account with a couple of calendars, one of which I'd like to publish to a remote server, as an .ics file.
