RodWard Apr 20, 2012 8:52 PM (in response to kim.g)Does it work if you change your button type to an ordinary text button and make your final slide a little longer duration, say 1 second?

kim.g Apr 22, 2012 7:47 AM (in response to RodWard)I just tried that and it didn't work either. So far nothing I've found seems to work. I may just have to use the exit button that the skin provides when It's published.

If you read the link I pointed you to, you will discover that the Exit button on the playback control will most likely also fail.

10. Re: Creating a Quit Button
james.star215 Apr 27, 2012 8:22 AM (in response to kim.g)Here's how I did mine.
- On the last screen of my course I inserted a button. The button type is Text Button and the caption I chose was "Close". The caption is just what text you want to display on the button.
- Under the action, On Success, I chose Execute Javascript.
- Click the script window button.
- Copy and paste this code: javascript:top.window.close();
That's it. You can publish and test it locally on your computer.

And are you saying that this works 100% of the time in all browsers regardless of how the window was opened?

james.star215 Apr 30, 2012 8:18 AM (in response to Captiv8r)I wish that was the case. This was tested using Internet Explorer. Our courses are opened in their own window when being launched from the SkillSoft LMS.
Therefore, I cannot say for sure if this works for Safari, Chrome, FireFox, etc...

mandrill22 May 3, 2012 5:46 PM (in response to james.star215)It works in Chrome too.
But only when I do "Preview in Web Browser" from Captivate.
Published file does not work in Chrome, or Explorer for that matter.
