Javascript and LMS information

Hello community,

I am hoping someone on here can help answer this question.

I have a Storyline 360 course on a Moodle (version 3.2) platform. I published in in a SCORM (1.2) package and uploaded to the LMS. In the Storyline course is the following JavaScript function:
var lmsAPI = parent
var name = lmsAPI.GetStudentName();
var nameArray = name.split(",");
var fullName = nameArray[1] + " " + nameArray[0];
var player = GetPlayer();
player.SetVar("printUserName",fullName);

and this JavaScript function:
var player = GetPlayer();
var myName = lmsAPI.GetStudentName();
var array = myName.split(',');
var newName = array[1];
player.SetVar("newName", newName);

The issue I am having is that when I published the course as a Flash presentation the JavaScript function worked fine. The JavaScript pulls the learners name from the LMS without any issues. But when I publish as an HTML5 file, it stops working.

Any thoughts on this? Does JavaScript not work in an HTML5 presentation?

Thanks for any help.
