Input boxes within SCORM course on iPad

Hi,

I am doing a lot of testing at the moment on multiple devices.

I have an input box where you input a numberical value on iPad. It works absolutely fine in all the browsers when it is runs from a web link, but breaks when it is used within a SCORM window.

The value I want to put is 600 and a variable changes when it loses focus. When 600 is input the variable changes to 60. I have tried this with a few different input boxes and it misses off the last character every time. It does it on both numerical input boxes and text boxes.

Has anyone experienced this before or knows the reason why?

Or has anyone had anything work correctly on the web version yet break in the SCORM version on iPad.

Many thanks,

Elliot

Hi,

Just to update if anyone else has this problem, I could not fix the issue so was forced to create my own javascript number pad on a layer that added a character to the end of a variable each time the number button was pressed.

It would be good to have someone else clarify that this is a Storyline problem.

Many thanks,

Elliot

I cannot share it I am afraid. It is just a scorm input box that writes a variable.

You can test it easily by making an input box and having the variable next to it in a text box such as %textinput%. In a SCORM window the variable is missing the last character off.

So a user is typing 600 and the variable is showing 60 so the incorrect feedback layer is showing when it is actually correct.

I have managed to make my own inbuilt number pad using javascript. The problem now is that when a user types 600, they are double tapping the 0 which is setting off the iPad "Double tap zoom" function. This processing spike has caused the browser to crash on 1 or 2 occasions. I will keep looking for a fix.
