[Xerte] How to use the judge function correctly

[Paul Swanson]

Dave, I believe if you set the rs property of the response, you can
address it directly.

 

>From the Help:

 

Common Response Properties

All interaction responses share some common properties:

 

name

The name of the icon you will see on the document tree.

 

id

An id that refers to the theoretical 'page' that contains the content
associated with an interaction response. The id property is optional.

 

rs

An id that refers to the actual interactive element, such as the button
itself. The rs property is optional. You will use this when scripting
interactions.

 

type

The type of response. This is set automatically.

 

erase

This setting of 1 or 0 determines whether the contents of this response
are erased when other responses on the interaction are matched.

 

exit

A boolean (0 or 1) value that determines whether the response will cause
the interaction to exit, or not. Interactions that are set to perpetual
will not exit, regardless of the response setting. You can force an
interaction to exit by calling it's exit method: id.exit();

Aha. I think i see what is happening.

Patrick, is there any way to address the responses object directly?
Something like:
interaction.responses[1].status

What I'm really driving at is there any way to dynamically set the
correct status T/F?

Well I replied to this, but sent an attachment and it appears to have
lost itself in the ether.

 

So http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/~cczpl/response.rlo
<http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/%7Ecczpl/response.rlo> 

 

basically

 

Set up an interaction, give it an id

 

Add to the interaction (i've used check boxes) a series of items, giving
each one an id, a response and a correct attribute

 

At some point, run some code and add to that code
<<interactionid>>.judge()

	Hmm.
	
	My interaction (id question) has 4 responses with names, id's,
correct set to 1.
	
	If I debug:
	question.responses.length
	
	I get 0

	Hello

	 

	I don't know how this function works, but I can possibly help as
thus

	 

	INTERACTION.prototype.judge = function() {
	 //check that each response whose correct is not undefined
	 //has the same status as correct
	 for (var i = 0; i<this.responses.length; i++) {
	  if (this.responses[i].correct != undefined) {
	   //trace(this.responses[i].correct +" "
+this.responses[i].status);
	   if (this.responses[i].correct != this.responses[i].status) {
	    //doesn't match - user cannot have matched all correctly
	    return false;
	   }
	  }
	 }
	 return true;
	};

	 

	That is the flash source code of the function, so it looks like
you need to set responses for the interactions for a judge to work.

	 

	Pat

		Hi List, 
		
		another beginner's question. Imagine the following
structure: 
		-- page 1 
		---- interaction: id=question1 
		-------- button 1: correct=0 
		-------- button 2: correct=0 
		-------- button 3: correct=1 
		-- page 2 
		---- script: question1.judge() 
		
		The script returns undefined, regardless of what the
user clicks. I also tried false and true instead of 0 and 1. What's
wrong?
