Hello Ernie,

Thanks for your detailed input because last time you didn't advise to replace mainnoflash.jsp as well, you only asked for mainflash.jsp :)

However, I followed your instructions and it's still not working ... not sure what is going wrong as I don't see anything unusual in log files as well.

I can't insert images here so I am attaching a document, steps I followed with screenshots for your review.

Hi Atif,

I had a look at the attached document and I'm pretty certain that I know what's happening.

If you look at the messages above, I mentioned that we have been working on turning the learner and monitor interface to non-Flash interfaces.

However, on the last picture of your document, you are trying to open LAMS Author. But, LAMS Author is still 100% a Flash interface and probably will remain like this for some time.

The main reason for this is because LAMS Author require some features that are still quite complex to do with HTML5 and SVGs, like drag and drop, multiple level branching, etc.

So I think teacher will still be required to use Flash for creating sequences.

Having said that though, students would not longer require flash as their interface will be fully non-Flash. So they'll be able to use tablets or mobiles to access their LAMS sequence without loosing any functionality.

Same thing for teachers/tutors that need to monitor their lessons.

I hope this clarifies the scope a bit better.

Thanks,

Ernie

Hi Ernie, my apologies I must have lost it some where in the conversation track. Didn't notice that Author interface is not mobile enabled at the moment. But you have rightly said that mobile interface for Author is not really necessary if Learner and Monitor interface are Mobile enabled.

However, I have tested the Learner interface and it's working great, will get back to you if we found any problems with it. When we should expect nonflash Monitor interface in CVS ?

Great thanks and have a great evening.

It's already there... have a look at this post above for details on how to access it.

Thanks,

Thanks, I was actually using my Moodle to access learner and monitor interface.

Ah, ok... so if you are coming from Moodle, you probably won't see it though.

Once we finished with this interface, we'll link it from Moodle. No worries.

Thanks,

Ernie
