I'm going to be working on a blog post and tutorials to show you one way to send form field data in Articulate 360/3 from to an LRS. I'd love to get some data to show prior to writing this so I can capture a screenshot.
Would you mind launching this project sample, commenting in the comments field, and submitting. Sign your name at the end of the comment if you want to appear in my post!
I did get your selections on the thumbs up/thumbs down though. I wonder if the commenting won't work on phone unless you click out of box because I have the comments to set to variable when control of text box loses focus.
Update - Yep that is it. If you do it on PC it's fine. On mobile unless the control loses focus, it won't set the variable. So the user can't just type in the field and click submit. They also have to click somewhere else on the screen after typing in the field. I think maybe I can do something to force it to lose focus.
Thank you! I did get your selections but not the comment due to the control not losing focus on mobile. It only works on mobile if you also click outside the form. :( I'll have to figure out how to adjust that.
Woo! Thank you everyone. For the most part I'm getting the comments minus some mobile ones. I'll play around with the JS Steve suggested. Below are some examples.

Got it! I just need to change some of the code because there's issues with the dashboard piece. :(

Done it via mobile. The one with the odd comment :) stupid autocorrect

I wonder if it is HTML version I did on ipad
I clicked elsewhere GeForce sending.
iPads and there images.
This might work or not.
Would a JS trigger with something like this help?
document.activeElement.blur();
I'll try that!

That was a pain in the you know what. I fixed it by Executing JS on the Submit button before any of my other Triggers. I used:
$(':focus').blur()
I also made a post! https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/i-made-storyline-360-example-send-form-field-data-lrs-milloway-msit
Matthew Bibby has a really cool way of doing this to an LMS without using javascript (not even once!) Using quiz functions.
I've found this to be really useful!

Your solution looks equally as elegant Melissa! Great stuff!
