Getting started with Flash learning interactions

Your e-learning courseware runs on any computer with Macromedia Flash Player 6 or later and a
Flash-enabled web browser.
To track user data from the Flash learning interactions, you must have a web server-side LMS,
such as an AICC- or SCORM-compatible system. In addition, users must have Internet Explorer
4.0 or Netscape Navigator 4.0 or later (Windows), or Netscape 4.5 or later (Macintosh).
Tracking to an LMS with learning interactions does not work with Internet Explorer on the
Macintosh.

configure in a Flash document. For additional information about Flash components, see
