webwork exercises inside <reading-questions> env.

[Geoffrey Cox]

Is there a trick to get a <webwork> exercise to be interactive and display the "Activate" button when the exercise is within a <reading-questions> environment?

The exercise works as intended if it is moved outside this environment. Below is a snippet of the code that I am testing.

<subsection xml:id="interactive-exercises">

  <title>Test your Understanding</title>  

  <reading-questions>

    <title> Some Questions </title>

    <exercise>

      <webwork>

        <statement>

          <p><m>1+2=</m><var name="'3'" width="5" /></p>

        </statement>

      </webwork>

    </exercise>

  </reading-questions>

  <exercise>

    <webwork>

      <statement>

        <p><m>1+2=</m><var name="'3'" width="5" /></p>

      </statement>

    </webwork>

  </exercise>

</subsection>

Here is the output. Note that the 2nd exercise has the "Activate" button.

I've got a suspicion - let me check in a bit.

Not a trick - fully documented. ;-)

Read:

Subsection 38.4.2: HTML output
https://pretextbook.org/doc/guide/html/webwork-processing.html#webwork-html-output

First few lines are stale, then it becomes interesting reading.

Short answer: WW problems in HTML can be "static" or "dynamic", based on
location. Defaults are partly one way, partly the other, and can be overruled
in the publisher file.

Great, thanks! I knew it had to be something I was missing.
