I am experimenting with utilising a lightbox to pop up and allow learners to take notes throughout their eLearn course. These notes save to a variable Notes1.
I have worked out how to use Javascript to allow the learners to print the notes that they have taken, and also the Javascript to email. (however the email function is impracticable as it tries to open the office app)
As our office is going more and more digital, the print function is great - but is there a way or a JavaScript that would allow the text entered into the Notes1 variable to be saved to the computer? (I figure if we can export the text and print, we should be able to export to Notepad or something to be able to save it.)
I'm looking at doing something similar and just wondering if you ever got this functioning? Would yo be willing to share an example of your source files?
Just in case, Justin is no longer subscribed here, as the post is a bit older - you could always use the "contact me" button on a ELH users' profile to reach out to them directly! Feel free to look at those other posts Brian linked too as well for anyone who may be able to help.
I have just found out that the code does not work as intended any more. When creating a .pdf it does not create new lines. So I have to dig into it before I share it.

I searched these forums and found three great starting points for exporting ("saving") variables:

I am exploring a similar solution.
