Ok this might help but is going to make this a long message! I've stripped out Adam's sig's to make it slightly shorter. This is an old sent item I have in my Outlook from when we discussed all this before. I'm sure it can be found in the archives too but don't have time. It's obviously the top message that's most relevant but the thread gives the background.

BTW not sure if the .js attachement ever got through because my sent item says it was blocked.

Subject: RE: [Xerte] interesting problem when using SCORM in Moodle
Works in Moodle too!
Also fixes the example shared by Adam earlier!
Also fixes LO’s I’d tested in Moodle previously just by replacing the flash.js file!
So to summarise:
Problem only happened with LO’s set to full screen or fill window exported as scorm and imported into Moodle. Which is what made it seem so intermittent.
None of the changes today to scormRLO.htm fixed this without causing the firefox problem.
Checking flash.js and replacing the following:
document.writeln('<br>');
document.writeln('<center><div id="sco" style="width:' + rloWidth + 'px; height:' + rloHeight + 'px;">');
with the following
document.writeln('<div id="sco" style="width:' + rloWidth + 'px; height:' + rloHeight + 'px;">');
fixed it offline and in Moodle.
.js file attached for anyone with the disappearing problem to try.
I think we got there!
Cheers

Good. Now it's Moodle's problem... and the question will be 'what happens in the ADL test suite' if anything's wrong ;-)
apiwrapper.js is pretty much the ADL supplied wrapper, so there oughtn't to be issues there.
flash.js is my own flash embedding code - Pat found a problem in there earlier fixed it.
I'll update all the downloads tomorrow so at least we have a good step forward. I know it works in WebCT, so I'd say there's a good chance it will work in another LMS...

Works in IE no disappearing and no FF squishing.
So then copied scormRLO.htm to my XOT test file - same old disappearing problem.
So out of curiosity copied apiwrapper.js and flash.js from your LO to mine: Works in IE no disappearing and no FF squishing!
So then copied the .js files one by one to another copy of my LO. apiwrapper.js no difference. flash.js fixes problem.
So then compared differences between the two .js files
Mine had:
document.writeln('<br>');
document.writeln('<center><div id="sco" style="width:' + rloWidth + 'px; height:' + rloHeight + 'px;">');
as lines 1 and 2
Yours has:
document.writeln('<div id="sco" style="width:' + rloWidth + 'px; height:' + rloHeight + 'px;">');
as line 1 replacing 1
replacing line 1 and 2 in mine with 1 from yours seems to fix the problem
Off to test in Moodle!

Confirm for me what happens when you take the zip fie at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/~cczjrt/scormTest.zip
Unzip those files into a folder... run the .htm.
It works? Or not? Don't mix any of these files with any of your own. We need to get to a place where we have one set of working files - I was thinking maybe you are taking just the .htm and dropping it into your own project - I need to know these files work or not as they work for me at work, and they work for me at home.
I could see your flash.js was different to mine, so lets take it a step at a time,

It aint the cache and btw the link in your message containing: “Let’s wipe our minds and get on a common set of files.“
To quote “That example doesn’t have the doctype at the top of the file.”! ;-)
So I added the doc type and it fixes the disappearing problem in IE but creates the squishing problem in Firefox.
Adding the docype to your example does the same thing.
Please try the attached not another non XOT LO.
So just to make it 100% clear. The disappearing problem only happens in IE with LO’s set to full screen or fill window. Using the new scormRLO.htm file with doctype added fixes that problem but introduces a problem of squishing vertically in Firefox.

That does work in both browsers but...
1. Something must have changed because your previous version wasn’t displaying full screen.
2. It would help if we were all using an XOT created LO rather than a local file because...
3. Given that this one worked I copied scormRLO.htm pasted in the folder of the test LO I sent to the list and changed the line pointing to test.rlo to point to learingobject.rlo result – back to the same problem – flashes and disappears!

Just finished testing and Yes it does seem to fix it for me! However I made the change locally and then re-imported so as you say there may be some caching going on in Adam’s case.
This is great Julian (and Adam) thanks! – it’s cropped up many times but I’ve never seen the error Adam reported so never associated it with the default screen size. A lot of people will be very happy! ;-)
Presumably you will add this to the downloads at some point?
Also I can find it but to save a few minutes where does the scormRLO.htm sit in the XOT directory or is it created dynamically? Would be good to be able to replace a file so that it’s fixed on existing installations.

Subject: RE: [Xerte] interesting problem when using SCORM in Moodle
I posted about this issue previously (see subject: scorm object white screen) but hadn’t discovered that it was the default size option that was causing the problem. Thanks Adam! At least knowing that’s the conflict provides a short term solution e.g. set size to default. This has actually cropped up many times but has seemed intermittent – it now seems clear that the difference is the default size setting.
I’ve just tested the same LO I was using previously to test the problem and as soon as that’s set to default rather than full screen or full window the LO works when imported as a scorm. However as Adam says when imported as a normal zip the fill window works too. It seems likely that there’s some incompatibility between the Moodle scorm code and the full screen fill window code.
You’re right Julian – given that the only interaction tracked at the moment is the Quiz page type there’s few advantages and many disadvantage exporting and importing as scorm. I usually recommend that people either link to and use the moodle quiz for quizzes or separate LO’s so that only LO’s using the quiz page are exported and imported and the others are just linked or embedded.
It would be good to identify where the code conflict lies and fix it at some point because dynamic sizing is definitely desirable but I simply don’t have time to explore that at the moment.

The problem needs looking into. I think it is something to do with the styles in the html. Compare the code in scormRLO.htm to the code in a normal index.htm –that might help track it down.
But why export it anyway? Why not just link to the resource from moodle? That way you can easily edit and update the resource from toolkits, copy it, give it, duplicate it and adapt it - and all that good stuff…

Hi all
Been experimenting with Moodle using some Xerte RLOs and uncovered a problem. Exporting a XOT RLO as scorm and importing into Moodle using the ‘add an IMS package’ works fine and runs as should. However, setting the ‘default size’ in XOT for the RLO to either Full Screen or Fill Screen breaks the RLO in Moodle – it completely disappears and leaves the following error :
Webpage error details

If I export the RLO as a zip package and then link to the index.htm page it displays fine from Moodle with the screen default size set.
Any ideas why this might be? I’d prefer it if we could use the full screen option so that the RLO resizes to match the users browser window – and still import as scorm (most our students will use laptops which chop off the bottom of the default sized RLO)

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Scorm and Moodle - XOT
We don’t have moodle here to test, but obviously we’d like to make it work (for everyone, first time).
Nigel I’m guessing you used the most up to date zip – so wondering if we have some JS somewhere we’ve not added in.

I had a similar issue with a scorm package in moodle and it was resolved by setting the Theme Selector in Moodle to the 'standard' theme.

It should all be documented in the archives and yes the simple solution is to set the default display mode to default rather than full screen or fill window and then play with the moodle frame settings so that it fits nicely in the SCORM window.
I can't recall either if we fixed this with newer html/js but I think we did. Too busy with something else right now to track back or check.

Yeah, this has echoes in the further reaches of my mind, but I can’t remember the solution: it’s down to the div getting resized to 0,0 if I recall correctly? Try the other screen settings?

Memory reminds me it’s something to do with a bug in either moodle or one of the toolkit window size options not playing nicely with moodle?

Hi
Not sure if this has been covered before or not, have searched archives but was unable to find anything. I have an LO and have exported it as a scorm package. I imported into Moodle as a Scorm activity, when I run it the Title Page briefly appears along with interface then all I get is a blank page. Any ideas?
