I noted in a post from Phillip Hutchison (http://pipwerks.com) that Adobe is interested in receiving feedback from users who would like to capture Captivate Interactions within a database without using a LMS.

I am VERY interested in such a feature as many of my projects require storing Captivate Quiz results and surveys in a database. At this present moment I am using another authoring Tool that publishes to HTML and allows me to do that seemlessly published to HTML, but would like to use Captivate because of the strengths Captivate/Flash has regarding presentation and design. Whether using Access or MSSQL or MySQL, these are the options I am faced with everyday.

Having interactions sent via email is not a complete solution as my users at my institution are taking online learning from general-use computers that can not be configured for their personal email.

A easy method of doing this would be by providing standard ASP and PHP code samples within Captivate that can be modified to point to the respective databases depending on what developers are using.

These code samples would capture data such as;
1. The ID of the quiz/survey
2. Title of the quiz/survey
3. User Name
4. Email address of the user
5. Total Score
6. Passing Status
7. Interactions of the quiz/survey
8. Question/Survey info
9. Time/Date Info

The above would make Captivate a truly powerful tool that fits the real-world requirements that developers meet in their work.

I thank you for your time and the opportunity to share.
Have a good day.

We’re not headed in this direction at the moment, but I am interested to consider the possibility and see how it might also play with the LETSI roadmap, etc.

thanks for tweeting. i didn’t point people to the adobe feedback page because the developers are asking for direct feedback, and need it ASAP. otherwise i heartily recommend the normal adobe feedback system.
