Re: revBrowser or revGoURL?

If you are on MS windows, one option is to load your tests in a separate 
hta window. To do this first create an empty html file template and save 
it with .hta extension, then insert the following tag into the head 
section of the html (right after title section):

HTA:APPLICATION
ID=whatever
ICON=
APPLICATIONNAME=write app name here
VERSION = 1
SHOWINTASKBAR=yes
BORDER=thick
BORDERSTYLE=normal
SINGLEINSTANCE=yes
SYSMENU=yes
WINDOWSTATE=normal
MAXIMIZEBUTTON=yes
MINIMIZEBUTTON=yes
CAPTION=yes
CONTEXTMENU=yes
INNERBORDER=no
NAVIGABLE=yes
SCROLL=no
SCROLLFLAT=yes
SELECTION=no

everything else is like in an ordinary html document, including 
javascript and css. So either put your tests right there (it can be run 
from a website too), or additionally create a frame or an iframe where 
you load your tests in. In this case the iframe should contain a few 
additional properties: src=http://tests.html; application=yes trusted 
= yes. If you store this hta file locally, then tests can be loaded 
and executed in the iframe. I am not experienced with revBrowser though...


One more way would be to load the tests in a popup window using 
javascript like this:
a href=# onClick='window.open(test1.html, test, toolbar=0, 
status=0, top=1, left=100, height=50, width=500);'test1/a


Maybe someone will provide better alternatives...

Hello all,

I am looking at two possible ways to approach a requested feature...I 
am working with ESL teachers and they are using a service to create a 
grammar test - an HTML javaScript test.  They would like to use these 
pre-created tests in conjunction with a login and would also like to 
make sure the students cannot navigate from the test or see the 
address of the test.  So, my questions...


1.  I tried to work with revBrowser but was unable to get the 
javaScript to work.  Is there a way to get javaScript to function in 
revBrowser like it does in the web browser?


2.  Can I call the file to open in the web browser using revGoURL but 
make sure the navigation bar isn't visible and prevent students from 
navigating away from the test?


Answers to these questions and/or any other suggestions/solutions 
would be much appreciated!  I am still wrapping my mind around all of 
Rev's internet capabilities and I'm sure I've missed something...


Thanks!

Sharon
