Course detecting SCORM 2004 but sending 1.2 commands

Question

I've been testing Captivate 2.0 courses within SABA 5.2.0.2.
Everything works correctly but when the course is successfully
completed, it won't move to transcript. I contacted SABA and
provided them with the course to test in their lab. Here is was
they are telling me:
"the content set a variable to determine which version of
SCORM the LMS system support, and it tries SCORM 2004 first.
However, as it detects SCORM 2004 in Saba, it sends SCORM 1.2
commands. The completion status was not interpreted correctly.
I made a change to scorm_support.js and set to detect SCORM
1.2 first, then the content works correctly."
When I create the course, I select SCORM 1.2 which is what we
want to use for our courses as this time.
I do I configure the course to detect 1.2 first (or even only
detect 1.2)? I work with several content developers who are not
programmers and are not comfortable with changing code.

Answer 1

This has been answered in other threads, but I forget the
exact steps.
The HTML file that Captivate generates contains all the SCORM
communication javascript code. Somewhere in there is the API
detection
that SABA support is talking about. I believe it's fairly
easy to change
which is looked for first...but, again, I forget the steps.
Maybe you can simply ask SABA support since they figured it
out?
Or search these forums for content something like 'API change
1.2 to
2004', likely posts by Andrew Chemey.
