You can insert native HTML5 web objects into the slides by clicking Objects >

Type the URL for web object in Address field. You can also browse for OAM, pdf,

Auto Load |
Choose this option if you want to load the object automatically in output. By default, this option remains selected when you create web object. In edit mode, after loading the object, mouse over the object to view the content. If you are unable to see the content after enabling the option, see this forum thread more for information. |
To display the web object in the slide, choose the following options: |
|
Border |
Select this option, if you want to view the border for the web object. |
Scrolling |
Select this |
Loading Animation |
Select this option, if you want any animation within the web object to load. |
To display the web object in a new browser window, choose the following options: |
|
Default |
Select this |
Full Screen |
Select this |
Custom |
Select this option, if you want to view the web object within defined width and height dimensions. |
To insert objects like pdf or zip files, it is recommended that you place the pdf, zip, or svg file in a web server, and then use the url to the file.
For example, after placing the objects
- pdf: localhost:8012/<filename>.pdf
svg : localhost:8012/<filename>.svg
When you preview the slide, you can see that the objects are included in the output.

If after inserting the YouTube widget, the video does not play after publishing. In such situations, update the widget.
For more information, see YouTube widget issues in SWF output.
Click the Embed code option, if you would like to embed any web object, such

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_VW-KBt0Sbk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Opomba:
After publishing or previewing the project, if you see the error message, the object cannot be displayed in a frame, see this forum post for more information.

You can change the height and width of the embedded video by changing the size of web object container. The video maintains its width by following the width of the web object container and maintains its aspect ratio for height.
You can also embed videos without using the iframe tag, although it is recommended using it. You can use the object and the embed tags, as shown below:
<object data=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/_VW-KBt0Sbk " width="560" height="315"></object>
<embed width="420" height="315" src=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/_VW-KBt0Sbk "></embed>
In Adobe Captivate, web objects and HTML 5 animations (when layered with other shapes) always appear on top
As a work around this issue in HTML5, perform the following:
- In your Captivate installation folder, open the AdobeCaptivate.ini file.
- Edit the file to change the value of UseWidget7 to 1 as follows:
UseWidget7=1 - Close and relaunch Adobe Captivate.
You can now position your web objects on top or bottom, and they appear as expected in HTML 5.
Opomba:
This workaround is applicable for HTML5 publish option and for static pages or animations only.
When referring to a http website (in a web object) in an https secured LMS environment, the LMS does not allow the content to launch an un-secured website.
The content launches fine in the Captivate preview server because it is http based. However it does not work in SCORM cloud or Captivate Prime as those LMSs are https based.
Click jacking is a threat to security and Captivate does not support redirecting to a different website.
Opomba:
Some websites may not allow you to open it in another page or window. To test whether a site is supported in the Web object, you can have a simple HTML page with an iframe, and see if your URL works. If it works there, it also works in the web object.
