Link to SWF or HTML file from LMS?

Hello,
Can someone please tell me how I should link to the captivate file from LMS.  Is it better to link to the SWF file or the HTML file (or in this case, the HTML full-screen file)?
I would also appreciate it if you could tell me why one file is better than the other to link to from LMS.
Thank you,
Justin

If you are using an LMS for the purpose of tracking data about the user's interaction with your course, it will be either using SCORM or AICC standard to achieve that.  In both cases you need the HTM file that Captivate publishes because there is quite a lot of JavaScript involved in the API communication between the course modules and the LMS.  If you were only uploading the SWF file, the LMS wouldn't be able to "talk" to your course.
In the case of SCORM, you upload your course as a zip file that contains everything it needs to operate and communicate with the LMS.  This zip file, and all the files it contains, is what the LMS expects.
Having said this, there are some pseudo LMS systems out there that are really more akin to content management systems (CMS) since all they really do is deliver the files to the user and track the fact that they did so.  They don't read or record scoring coming back from the course too well.  In some cases these types of LMS will expect to get the course as a single file only (because they're more used to courses in the form of PDF files or PPT presentations) and so the SWF file is about the only one you CAN upload to them with any chance of delivering content.  I don't recommend you go for these types of systems.

  • Published a swf or html file from Flash (on Mac) that contains flv video can only play on Mac?

    I created a flash file that contains a flv file inside. After I published it on my Mac in both html and swf format and it played well. But when I copied all this folder include the swf, html and the source flv to test on a pc it played well but the video part (flv) was blank. So I copied the .fla file to pc and published again, then it works fine (including the flv video part) on both pc and Mac. All the settings were same while publishing.
    So I wonder what's wrong with publish from Mac side? I work with Mac and so it's very inconvenient to publish my work on PC.

    Hi kglad,
    Here's the link: http://ben-wang-van.bugs3.com/test.html
    This is the simple test. As you can see the video part (after the text) is empty and the flv file is actually the same location.
    From last experience, if I pubulish this video from PC and upload them and then will play fine.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot!!!

  • Write HTML Files from java application

    Hello,
    i have to write HTML files from a java application.
    I am asking if anybody can give me a hint about a good simple solution (library) which can do some of the job for me.
    i know FOP for example is good to create pdf or html from xml, but i dont want to go via xml.
    the sites i need are really very simple presents emails.
    body and maybe a link for next and pervious.
    however, thank you in advance.
    a little hint will also help :)
    Sako.

    That, too, is my question.
    Be the "server" local or remote, wouldn't JSPs still
    be the easier solution? No. it will not. because you need a server. Server for a stand alone application is not esier. according to who said JSPs are easy?
    Its very very difficult.
    >
    When answering, please clarify. I'm a bit of a newbie
    here. :)To get sence about how hard is JSP, check Struts. this is very good open source Framework to simplify the JSPs. but it still complecated enough.
    or Tapestry my lovely open srouce Framework.
    its easier than Struts. but sill complecated because of the documentation.
    All in all, using JSP is the purpose of Java in the internet. but not for me. My application will not be available in the internet, i.e. no server, i.e. no need for JSP.
    i hope that helps a little.

  • Flash CC does not publish swf and html files

    I'm having issues with Flash CC. When I go to publish my movie the status bar appeaers then quickly disappears and the html and swf files are not created. I'm also not able to export the movie as a quicktime or AVI file. Is there specific settings I must have to publish and export? Note: I am working with AS3 and tried to do a simpple test with a box moving left to right and I have the same problem.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Are you sure the HTML and SWF are not currently in use? For example if you publish and preview it in a browser, it can lock those files because they're "in use". Then Flash cannot overwrite them. You'd need to close the browser or any Flash Players displaying them. If that still won't overwrite, delete the files and see if they're re-created.
    If no files are being created at all, gointo publish settings and set a path to export the SWF and HTML file to, don't leaving it at the default (same folder as FLA). Try various places in fact to test permissions.
    If you're on Windows you could try running Flash CC as Administrator to also get around any file writing permission issues. Right-click on the Flash icon and select Run as Administrator.
    I've only really encountered this when my SWF/HTML was in use or stuck in a process.

  • How to generate individual HTML files from linked help?

    Hi folks,
    I'm trying to figure out how to generate individual web pages - based on heading types - from a help project this is linked to a FrameMaker book.
    I'm linking to the FM book, rather than importing, because the import process ruins my graphics. So, I know how to create individual web help pages using the import process; but that's not an option for me. (The graphics issue is a whole other discussion, which I've since given up on.)
    So, I'm using TCS 3.5 (RH9 and FM10). I've successfully linked to the FM book. Each topic represents a complete chapter and includes a single Heading 1 for the title and several Heading 2's. Again, these are all in the same help topic because I'm linked to the FM book.
    What I want to do is generate the web help so that new web pages (files) are created. In other words, I want breaks before each Heading 2. I want the resulting web pages to be named based on the Heading 2.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks for reading,
    Tom

    I’m not sure I understand the problem (I’m using FM 10, RH9, TCS3):  You can adjust .isf and all Conversion/CSS mapping, etc settings for an existing project (Linked or Imported) at:
    File > Project Settings > FrameMaker Document > Edit Conversion settings for FrameMaker documents: (click Edit button).
    Then, Go to FrameMaker Settings > Paragraph > Heading 1 etc. and click the box for Pagination.
    What I don’t know is if you have to re-do your linking process from scratch to do your pagination settings right the first time (like create a new project with your Frame docs, which shouldn’t be hard to test if you have saved your CSS, Master Pages etc), or already have an .isf file  with proper settings that you can specify at time of first import/linking. I already had these in place when I set up my linked project of a Frame book with 13 chapters – 350 pages – resulting in over 300 separate HTML files/topics (set H1, H2, and H3 levels to paginate). I don’t know if you can change these things post-linking, but it can definitely be done!
    There is definitely no reason to have to have an entire FM chapter as one topic in RH. You may have to create a new project to achieve your desired results, I am not sure.
    I hope this is helpful. Regarding RH ruining your images, I know what you mean. Through a painstaking process of research, trial, and error, I found that these Image options in the Conversion Settings produced the best results for me, though not as good as “ideal:”
    ·         Check the box for “Use Distiller to Generate Image”
    ·         Leave the “Do Not Regenerate Images” and “Preserve 3D Images” boxes unchecked
    ·         Under Preferred Dimensions: Check “Maintain Aspect Ratio” and check Width and Height – Set both to 0pt. (*This one was a key tip.) Leave “Scale” unchecked. (Scaling seems to do terrible things in RH.)
    ·         I left the Max Dimensions settings unchecked.
    ·         Set my personal preferences for margins (2pt all sides) and borders (solid, gray, 1 pt)
    ·         Under Advanced, Default format of PNG with color bit depth of 24. My graphics are all screenshots, so this is the reason for this in my instance.

  • Manipulate the .swf's html file.

    to recode them.
    Thanks.

    From last experience, if I pubulish this video from PC and upload them and then will play fine.

    I am generating HTML wrapper dynamically and it runs

    Problem is that my SWF file which resides somewhere else on

    Please help.

    Hi zetokore, and welcome to the Community!
    You cannot separate the HTM and SWF files, so don't try.
    These files are designed to be symbiotic and must be accessed from
    the same location. Your "getaround" won't work because if you link
    to the SWF instead of theHTM, the output will be warped ... the HTM
    file contains sizing parameters for display of the SWF; so without
    proper sizing, the SWF will appear warped.
    In short - you'll have to live with it, because what you are
    seeing is Captivate's designed behavior.
    To emphasize the point: Design and record your Captivate
    projects at the size they are to be displayed to the end-user ...
    always! And - again always - link to the HTM file, never to the
    SWF.
    .
