<br>Flash has something like a 98% penetration rate.<br>That's a pretty small slice to cover for what I'm guessing would be a fairly difficult (code intensive) process.<br><br>Although I'm not sure what you mean by "gracefully degrade".<br>Can you elaborate?<br><br><br>> From: hal@cleveratom.co.uk<br>> To: xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<br>> Subject: Re: [Xerte] custom interfacy<br>> Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 13:42:04 +0000<br>> <br>> Hi All - I am just joining the list and picking up threads as they <br>> arrive. I realise I am new to the party and probably need to lurk and <br>> read a bit more before getting involved.<br>> <br>> However, I was wondering about the accessibility issues and <br>> specifically how I might gracefully degrade from Flash to, say, <br>> Javascript if an end user does not (and cannot) have the Flash player <br>> installed into their browser. Graceful degrade from Javascript to HTML <br>> would be the next step, and probably then pass all kinds of <br>> compatibility and accessibility tests.<br>> <br>> I have used Xerte all of three days and am loving the interface, but <br>> have a great deal still to learn.<br>> <br>> On that, I was hoping for some guidance on the interactivity and <br>> building quizzes, and am frantically reading all I can find. What <br>> would be really useful is a sample quiz that uses minimal scripting to <br>> illustrate the architecture, then a more advanced quiz that uses a <br>> little more scripting that illustrates the power of what is possible <br>> through Action Script.<br>> <br>> I am not a web coder, by the way, but am looking to develop Scorm <br>> objects that are both visually pleasing and educationally rich.<br>> <br>> Hal<br>> --<br>> Hal MacLean<br>> Director of Learning<br>> +44 (0)7957 538915<br>> <br>> www.cleveratom.co.uk<br>> +44 (0)845 868 9020<br>> <br>> Cleveratom Limited,<br>> Fenchurch House,<br>> 93 Springfield Road, Chelmsford,<br>> Essex, CM2 6JL.<br>> <br>> __________________________________<br>> Cleveratom Limited is a company registered<br>> in England and Wales with company<br>> number 6008130.
