Hello,

I surch to download the files for memory exercices on the website
http://www.teaching-tools.de.vu/ (Michael Rottmeier) but it's impossible. I
arrive only on a error page.

Have someone this zip files ? My address : samper@...

Thank's for your help.

Samuel Perrin

None of Michael's downloads seem to be working. I'm copying him on this
email, in case he wants to fix the problem.

Cheers,
Martin

Hello,

another question.

I try the last version of Hot Potatoes 6.3.0.4 and I note that the files htm
don't work with IE8 (Jmix, Jmatch) but very good with Google Chrome. Are you
noting the same to you ?

Old files work very good with IE8

A+
Samuel

URL please! No-one else has reported any problems with IE8. Or do you
mean with JMemory?

Cheer,s
Martin

Hi Samuel

Please post the URL so we can see the same file you are looking at.

IE will often "protect" you from executing JavaScript in the context of
your local computer, unless you tell it to allow the JavaScript to run.
It doesn't usually protect you in the same way from JavaScript on the web.

Hello,

I tried several computers and browsers to download from the website of
Michael Rottmeier. I can see the exemples but I can't download the Sources
Files (zip), always the same page as before yesterday. I don't know the
reason but I want to have the Source Files of FlashCards. If someone have
this...

Thank's and best regards.

Is it possible to set the Hot Potato quiz so that only one question will show at
a time? Not the mode `show one question at a time' – but forcing it to do this
so the student cannot browse ahead?

This tutorial shows you how to edit the source files to make this happen:

<http://hotpot.uvic.ca/howto/hacking_workshop/task_08_1.htm>

If you haven't edited source files before, you'll probably want to start
from the beginning of the tutorial.

Cheers,
Martin

Hi there,

I don't think we can help if you keep the exercise a secret from us!

Hi Natasa,

Michael Rottmeier's jMemory adaptation uses the colours you set for the links
and visited links to control the colours of the squares in the memory exercise.

The visited link colour will be the colour of the squares before the mouse is
hovered over them.  The link colour will be the colour the square changes to
when you pass the mouse over it, and also the colour of the background when the
square is clicked upon.

Either the title or text colour (not sure which as in my exercises both are the
same) control the colour of the "jmemory" caption which appears on the squares
and also of the colour of any text you use for a word that is part of a pair.

I hope this helps.

Deborah

Hi there,

Where are the links in this exercise? I don't see any.

Cheers,
Martin

This JavaScript is what changes the colour of the squares:

function Highlight(id){
	 if (M[id][1][1] == 0){
		 document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor = '#ffffff';
		 }
}

function Unhighlight(id){
	 switch (M[id][1][1]) {
		 case 0 : document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor =
'#c0c0c0'; break;
		 case 1 : document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor =
'#ffffff'; break;
		 }
}

Martin

Hi Natasa

As far as I can see, your page contains only one anchor (a) element, and
that is to download the flash player. So, the css selectors a:visited
and a:hover are only going to affect that one link (and that link
appears only if you don't have a recent version of Flash installed).
That's why you're not seeing any effect.

Michael is using javascript to modify the colours of the blocks in the
table, if that is what you're asking about. Here is the code which is
doing that:

function Highlight(id){
    if (M[id][1][1] == 0) {
      document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor = '#ffffff';
    }
}

function Unhighlight(id){
    switch (M[id][1][1]) {
      case 0 :
        document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor = '#c0c0c0'; break;
      case 1 :
        document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor = '#ffffff'; break;
    }
}

You're talking about a:hover and a:visited. The <a> element creates a
link. I didn't see any links on the page.

There are two instances of this line in the code:

setTimeout('ShowLogo()', 1000);

These set a timeout of one second (1000 milliseconds) to call the
"ShowLogo()" function. This is the only time-limit-related call I can
find in Michael's code, so you might try increasing the time limit:

setTimeout('ShowLogo()', 2000);

Cheers,
Martin

Hello :-)

Thank's at all for your help. I can create memory exercices with Jquiz.

I have noticed that in the title bar of an exercice, if I insert the
caractere " ' " (apostrophe), the exercice will not be created correctly.

Bug ?

Cordialy.
