[Xerte] Re: Setting Focus on the SWF

Cool.

So it can be called from the .rlo instead of the .swf.
I don't like putting code in swfs (other than compiled routines).

The wrapper function is callJS(funcName, params);

which wraps ExternalInterface.call(funcName, params);

and since that's all it does the only reason or it to be there is because ExternalInterface isn't directly accessible from the Xerte script.

Wait a sec.

Where are you placing the code now?

In the rlo or in the loaded swf?

If that call works from the .rlo, leave it there.

J, does the wrapper already exist then?

Yes Dave, that works on its own.  And only opens one browser window when tested.:-)  Thank you.

Julian:

if (mdm != undefined){
//WHAT DO I PUT HERE?
} else {
flash.external.ExternalInterface.call("document.getElementById(\"rlo\").focus");   
}

Do I put this in the SWF or rlo?

Oh..........I see..........I think....

I'm sorry to be dim but can you be a bit more specific.  Where do I put this code?  And how do I try it out?

if (mdm != undefined){
  //we are at author time: the mdm scripting obejcts are available
} else {
  //we must be in the browser...
}
