Using javascript in an external quiz engine to jump scenes

[mikefrost (Michael)]

I have been trialling a quiz creation package and using the exported quiz in an iframe within a scene in hype.
I would like to go to the next scene if the quiz is successful and the quiz engine gives me the option of running javascript but Im unsure how to make this work and where the javascript would be placed.

This is a screen from the quiz engine

exported quiz in an iframe within a scene in hype

If you are running a Hype JavaScript function within an iframe then it won't have access to the Hype scene (which is not at the same level) and the function won't work. Since there is a 'go to URL' option with 'Open in new browser window' checked, you could potentially send the person to a 'success' scene using this technique:

Linking to a specific scene from inside and outside of a Tumult Hype document

Tumult Hype documents are accessible from a single URL. If you name your document 'Flying' and upload it to your site, then your animation and all its scenes are accessible from http://example.com/flying.html (unless you change the name of your exported .html file). This article describes three ways to navigate between scenes: Load a scene directly from a URL (For example: http://site.com/hypedocument.html#contact) Use a button outside of your Tumult Hype document to load a scene in that docu…

So your scene name would be 'Success' and you could use a 'go to url' link containing that scene name as a hash like: http://example.com/hypedocumenthtml.html#Success
