Since we are talking about CSS, let me mention a problem I'm just having. I was trying to customize some of our exercises adding some XHTML compliant tags to...
Hi Josep, Can you tell us what changes you made to the CSS and XHTML? They don't seem to be documented in the normal way, with comments, so it's difficult to...
All I did was to introduce a few divs to have borders around some of the text in the text window. I also introduced a div in the Title window. I was going to...
I can confirm what I said in my previous message. I'm running version 6.2 release 4 build 2. When I introduce changes in the text reading area and I exit the...
Hi Josep, This does seem to be made with an old version of Hot Potatoes, but that shouldn't have any effect on saving data. The only way you could lose data...
I'm sorry to bother you again, Martin. I've followed all the steps in Michael Rottmeier's intructions to add its customization, but it doesn't seem to work....

Hi Cynthia, I think you must have chosen (in the configuration screen) to create a separate JavaScript file, and then forgotten to upload that file to the ...
Hi, some time ago I created a new set of interface files to make it easier to create exercises with Michael's modified source files. You may want to download...
Hi, thanks for HP. It's been part of my working life for years now, and I really appreciate it. I have a problem with looong answering times in scorm packages,...
Hi Josep, The problem and the solution: All your < span style="font-weight > have no closing quotations. They must be < span style="font-weight" >. So,...
Hi there, I think you might be able to improve performance by moving the call to API.LMSCommit( '');, like this: //old version: ...... API.LMSCommit(''); } } ...
Hi Martin, and thanks for your answer. Committing a lot is a good idea. The thing I stil find hard to understand is why the code loops through, sets and...
Hi there, The exercise saves everything it can to the LMS whenever it initiates a connection, just to minimize the chance of anything being lost. However, if...
I'm trying to see if I can get the JCross to give more immediate feedback on the entries. I see that there is a CheckAnswers() function which will check the...
Hi Carly, That's possible, but you would have to customize the JavaScript code to make it work that way. We can do that for you, but we would have to charge...
Hi there, I've got a question. When I insert an mp3 file in a hotpot exercise e.g. in JQuiz, I get some code and the program gives me the possibility to choose...
Hi Thom, That's exactly right. The classid is the identifier for Windows Media Player. However, object tags can be nested, so that you provide several ...
Hi, This is truly bizarre. I upgraded to the most current version of Hot Potatoes and I'm still having exactly the same problem I reported a few days ago. This...
Hello Paulo and everyone, I'm curious about your file at <http://teachingtools.michael-rottmeier.de/GeneralHints_1.htm> . I downloaded it but I don't know what...
Hi Josep, Are you sure the original file is not "read only"? You can see this by right-clicking on it and choosing "Properties". If you've copied it from ...
Hi Glenys, ... .hif files are HotPot interface files. I've modified the ones downloadable from Michael's Website to fit them to his source files. To use them,...

Hi Paolo, Thanks for telling me the link to the file I'd uploaded wasn't working. I've removed that file, re-uploaded it and had Yahoo send an automatic...
Hi Glenys, You load a HIF file using Options / Load Interface File. It changes the interface of Hot Potatoes. Usually HIF files are used to change the ...
Oops! Sorry Glenys, you're right! I apologize. What I wrote in my previous post is how to load a .cfg (configuration) file. To load a .hif file, instead, do...
Thank you Martin and Stan! Well, as Stan notices, in the original file I linked there was a problem with the tags. Since it is kind of a pain to have to...
