Text entry variables with additional grammar depending on which text entry boxes have been entered.
Kia ora koutou,
In a storyline module, I would like the learner to be able to type at an earlier stage various items.
Then later in the course have those items appear as a written list with commas in between and an 'and' before the last item. Which is easy enough.
The learner has the option to put up to 6 items but could write less, which is the issue.
So far I can have them input the text as a text entry.
This gets referenced forward to the list page.
BUT if I just pop the grammar in the text box ready to go with the references, if they don't fill in an item, then the grammar - like a comma - it sits there by itself.
Any easy fix in which a 'comma' or an 'and' only appears if my text entry variable has been typed in?
Storyline doesn't have that functionality built in. However, it could be done with JavaScript. I've seen posts before with JS for compiling a list, so you could search the Forum for that. Or perhaps one of the JS experts in the community will help here.
