Text Entry field validating ok in preview but not when published

Mar 28, 2018

Hi all, 

I'm creating software training and on one slide, the learner has to enter enter a space( click the spacebar) into a field. I want to validate that the learner is actually clicking the spacebar. I've used a text entry field, and entered space (spacebar click) into one of the answer choices. 

In "Preview" it works fine and the field validates correctly, however as soon as I publish the file, the text field validation doesn't seem to work anymore and instead it shows the "invalid answer" layer. 

I'm getting this behavior when testing in Review and also when testing in Scorm Cloud. Publishing setting is Flash with HTML fallback. 

 

Has anyone any experienced anything similar?

I have a slightly different question about "Invalid Answer".  My slide has a text field pre-populated (by variable) with 09.00 which is a deliberate wrong answer.  The question they must answer is "Is this the correct time?"  If they click "Yes", the Invalid Answer displays.  How do I get the Try Again feedback layer to display if they don't touch the field?  I am using SL3.
