Date variable at runtime?

Is there a way to pull in the current date (in any format) at runtime? I have a summary page that I want to show the system date in DD/MM/YYYY format.

Here you'll find some info and a demo on how to do just that.

Is Javascript supported for the iPad? I didn't think the Articulate Mobile Player supported it. The project I am evaluating this software for will be on iPad and Android tablets.

You are correct. JavaScript is not supported in the Articulate Mobile Player, but JavaScript triggers are supported in the Flash and HTML5 published formats.

JavaScript triggers are supported in the Flash and HTML5 published formats. You can use JavaScript when viewing a HTML5-published course in some browser, e.g. Safari on iPad. However, JavaScript is not supported in the Articulate Mobile Player for iPad. And, officially, Android is not supported yet.
