Dear All
I would like some advice regarding my content
Now, my html file generate from reload pack to SCORM and then when
upload to my server, status show only incomplete when user don't pass
score 80% and status show complete when user pass score more than 80,
which is what we want, but we also want the responses and raw score
reported on successful completion. So far we have no score reported;
only the Successful completion is reported and incomplete even when
they complete but fail.

I'm used quite template flash CS4, I want to server show status status
as are, and also score/response.

Your help would be appreciated as I am pretty new at this.
Regards
Tukgae

OK. Somewhere in your Flash file it should make the call to send the
items you indicated. I am not sure if they are already there in your
template or if you will have to add them. They should look something
like this.

quiz3_DoFSCommand("CMISetScore", ".92"); // Send the raw score of 92

or

quiz3_DoFSCommand("MM_cmiSendScore", ".92"); // Send the raw score of
92

For interactions such as student responses the call will be something
like this.

quiz3_DoFSCommand("MM_cmiSendInteractionInfo", ... );

It is too difficult to tell how these are actually implemented in the
Flash file itself. But there is code in the JavaScript that you sent
that seems to handle everything you are wanting to report to the LMS.
Finding the correct function and making sure they are triggered is
your challenge. The answer is in the ActionScript and not in the
JavaScript.

But if you wanted to circumvent this invloved JavaScript, you could
just call out JS yourself. But I think with student responses, you
might want to find the proper ActionScript within your template.

Sorry, I got side tracked with work. :)

I have only quickly looked over the AS code. I have a few questions.

Do you have a Submit button in your project somewhere? It appears that
this button contains code to build the interactions.

Is this a custom template or is it provided with some Adobe product?

When I have more time later tonight I will look over this in more
detail. Is there anyway you could upload the FLA file to this group or
e-mail to me?

Try putting an alert in your JavaScript. Add it as the first line of the quiz3_DoFSCommand function.

alert("command\n" + command);
alert("args\n" + args);

This will show you if the function is being called and if the correct data is being sent.

Back tracking from the JavaScript to the ActionScript... In the SubmitClicked function there is a call...

this.sendQuestionInteractionData(_obj);

I would try placing a trace in the sendQuestionInteractionData function. You want to make sure that this is being called and also that the object being passed to the function contains all the data it should be.

The above function then calls to...

tadapter.sendInteractionData(...); // lots of data being passed to the function

tadapter is an alias to tracking_adapter, which would appear to be a MovieClip. Without knowing what code is within tracking_adapter I can only guess at the issue. It could be that the function sendInteractionData within it is not calling to correct ExternalInterface function in your JavaScript.

There should be an ExternalInterface call to the JavaScript function quiz3_DoFSCommand. Or it could be an fscommand that is calling to the JavaScript function quiz3_DoFSCommand. If it is a fscommand, I would really suggest you switch it to ExternalInterface. In any case, it should be passing "MM_cmiSendInteractionInfo" in one of it's parameters.

Hope this helps.

Charles P.
