[Xerte] Is there a way to make an exit button?

[Dave Burnett]

Possibility of security issues?
Maybe with 8 you need to add the AllowDomain or something?
Just shooting in the dark.

getURL should work. Check the case.

So how do you access external javascript? I've added the following to the script section of the html page:
 
function closeWindow () {    // closes this window    self.close ();}
 
I've tried calling it with:
 
getUrl('javascript:closeWindow()');
 
and:
 
ExternalInterface.call('closeWindow');
 
Neither work, so I know I'm not doing it right. What's the correct command and syntax? fsCommand?

You've got it - it will have to be some javascript. I don't know if you can close the window without that 'a script is trying to close this window' security dialog.
 
Let me know how you get on - I could add a close function to the html pages Xerte publishes,

Is there a command that will close the Flash window? rootIcon.exit(); leaves the "Loading Complete" message on screen. Or will I have to call some javascript in the html page that launches the course?
