Hi,


In Question object there is Limitation property.
In that calculate number of attempts automatically options availabale.

I don't want this option for my question's.
I don't want the message when user attempts wrong option. How can I ignore this message?

I tried with
1]Checked calculate number of attempts automatically option with blank attempts.
2]Checked calculate number of attempts automatically option with 0 attempts.
3]Un-Checked calculate number of attempts automatically option.
But I don't getting proper result.

Please give solution for this.

Thanks
Varsha

Hi Varsha,

if I understand correctly you want to hide the "attemp" from being shown? A little hack will do this:
1) right click on the page that contains the question object and choose "Actions".
2) Add a javascript action to the afterdisplay event.
3) Insert the following javascript:
HideObject("OBJ_XY_q_attempts_container");
(replace OBJ_XY with the identifier of you question object, HideObject is one of the nice javascript functions courselab offers)

Best,

Peter

If you download the samples in the How too's you can look at the coding behind them.
I've been trying to collect some useful stuff for http://friendsofcourselab.info it's a bit sparse in appearing though!
 
I have the same problem. I hope someone could give us help regarding this matter.

Thanks in advance
 
 
What are you trying to achieve?

 
 
 
I'm just new to course lab and I'm targeting to use it on my next project. Thank you very much that someone reply on this problem.

I'm trying to take out the number of attempts when someone got a wrong answer. because what i did when someone got a wrong answer in the question i used goto to go back to the slide where the correct answer could be found. then return again to the question and there's a message box that pops as a warning. I tried to take out the warning messages on the properties of single box question but what happen it will just display a blank pop up.
Is there any extra coding for this?
can you also help me where could i found more examples on action coding of course lab.

I really appreciate your kindness for helping me.
 
 
 
 
Fist set the question to allow recurring appraoch, this will let you re-enter the question page without any pop up warnings.
