These code samples would capture data such as Having interactions sent via email is not a complete solution as my users at my institution are taking online learning from general-use computers that can not be configured for their personal email.Ī easy method of doing this would be by providing standard ASP and PHP code samples within Captivate that can be modified to point to the respective databases depending on what developers are using. Whether using Access or MSSQL or MySQL, these are the options I am faced with everyday. At this present moment I am using another authoring Tool that publishes to HTML and allows me to do that seemlessly published to HTML, but would like to use Captivate because of the strengths Captivate/Flash has regarding presentation and design. I am VERY interested in such a feature as many of my projects require storing Captivate Quiz results and surveys in a database.

I noted in a post from Phillip Hutchison ( ) that Adobe is interested in receiving feedback from users who would like to capture Captivate Interactions within a database without using a LMS.

I’d still like to know what you all think, though, so even if you email Shameer, I’d appreciate it if you left a comment on this post, too. If you’d like to send an email directly to a Captivate product manager, shoot it over to Shameer Ayyappan (shameer at adobe dot com).
#ADOBE CAPTIVATE SCORM UPDATE#
Update 12/1/08: I realized I posted this at a pretty bad time, with the long Thanksgiving weekend and all that Black Friday/Cyber Monday stuff going on. Please note that I don’t work for Adobe, I’m just helping them get some user feedback this blog post is in response to a conversation I had with some members of the Captivate product team a couple of days ago. Be sure to use a valid email address when posting so Adobe can contact you for clarification if needed. Please write up a short summary of the functionality you’d like to see, and a clear example of how you would use it, if it were available. This is your chance to tell them exactly what you’d like to see. For example, would you store data directly to a database without using an LMS, or perhaps use web-based services to store the data? They want to hear from YOU about your situation and what you would like to be able to do with the Captivate score and interaction data. As you may know, Captivate already provides a mechanism for sending this data to an LMS via SCORM or AICC (and a couple of other options), but the Captivate team also knows that some of you are asking for more. Go to Templates\Publish\ and replace manifest.xml with the new file.Adobe is investigating the needs of Captivate users regarding how you would like to store your quiz interaction and score data.Go to Templates\Publish\SCORM\1_2\SCORM_support\ and replace scorm_support.js with the new file.Go to Captivate's Templates\Publish\SCORM\1_2\ folder and replace Default.htm with the new file.While you're still in the Templates\Publish\ folder, replace standard.js with the new file.Go to Templates\Publish\ and replace manifest2004.xml with the new file.They won't be used, but they'll prevent Captivate from throwing the error. The error is safe to ignore, but if you prefer not to see the error, leave the scorm_support.htm and scorm_support.swf files as-is.
