[Xerte] Re: adding pop up action to a model

[Kemp Johnathan]

The hotspot Connector and the Scenario Connector both display a text block
over the current page content with a button to close the text block. These
text blocks are normally hidden but display when something takes place. In
the case of the Hotspot connector the learner clicks on a hotspot, in the
case of the scenario an outcome takes place.

This was about as close as I could get to a "pop up" when I did these pages.

I don't know of a function or method in Xerte similar to a javascript
alert("Some important message") method you get in javascript.

So it may be you need to add a text block with maybe a panel to act as a
background and then set their visible properties to 0. When you need to
display them set the visible property to 1 (or it may need "true").

Hope that is some help.

Kind regards

Johnathan
