Julian has already answered your question re languages: " But the languages used are PHP, javascript and actionscript mostly, and xerte itself, jquery in the new stuff" But are you just looking to develop e-learning content or to extend the functionality already available? You can develop plenty of different e-learning content with Xerte and Xerte Online Toolkits without any scripting at all by using the templates provided. Look at the info and examples linked from http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerteDownload either Xerte or Xerte Online Toolkits and try them outLook at the recordings and presentations from the AGM last week http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/agm.htm Then come back and ask more specific questions if you need to.

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Query on Flash animation I am in the stage of researching, trying to compare and contrast between Xerte and other e-learning development toolsand I asked the languages so that I'd know which languages I've already learnt and which ones that I haven't and these would help my decision making. For example I'm already familiar with PHP and javascript but I haven't learnt actionscript and jquery. Knowing these fact would ease my decision in developing project. I just need to know please. If it's too much then please at least mention the major ones that are built in Xerte. Suhaila From: Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Query on Flash animationYou’ll be better off defining the problem you want to solve, then figuring out how to solve it. Learning a new language is hard without a goal, because you really need to know what you’re trying to accomplish. If you learn those you’ll be able to pick up any language in the future. What do you program in right now? Are you interested in server side stuff, or front end stuff?

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Query on Flash animation Are those the only languages have been written in Xerte so far? I'd like to know all the languages as it'd be easier for decision making in the e-learning development tools. Thank you so much.SuhailaFrom: Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Query on Flash animation Oh I see. I can't really say what do I want to do specifically now because I'm researching for development tools for e-learning as part of my dissertation project. Is there some kind of manual or tutorial that specifically tells which part of xerte were written in which language? Suhaila From: Julian.Tenney at nottingham.ac.uk

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Query on Flash animationDDifferent parts of it are written in different languages, so it depends on what you want to do. So, what do you want to do?

Subject: [Xerte] Re: Query on Flash animation Oh that's brilliant but what do you mean by the language depends on what you want to do? Does Xerte support various scripting languages? I thought that in case Xerte doesn't have some toolkit or function that I want then maybe I could write some scripts so that's why I asked which language does Xerte support.

Subject: [Xerte] Query on Flash animation Hello. I've gone through the Toolkits Page Types and under Media - Flash Animation, it stated that  "Flash movies can bring interactivity and animation to your learning objects, and allow them to include custom content not possible with toolkits natively." The second part isn't clear to me probably because I'm not a native english speaker. I understand that Xerte is capable in importing flash movie but I need to know if it can also include flash animation object which user can interact with. For example; From flash, I designed a banner flying effect if a user clicks a particular button on Xerte or I designed a button from flash and import this to xerte so that when user clicks that button it should have some rollover effect or something like that. Can Xerte do those? And what's the script / programming language to use if I want to extend Xerte toolkits? Cheers,Suhaila
