This is a demonstration of how the Actions Editor, HTTP Post, ASP, and an Access Database can be used to build a simple Learning Management System (LMS). The features of this LMS include:
UserName and Password Access to Lesson Menu
Storage of basic user information such as the user's first name, last name, address, social security number, and E-Mail address
Ability to change password
Ability to update user information
Administrator access to a Reports Menu
Lesson Menu with checkmarks for lessons marked as completed
Bookmarking within each lesson with the ability to start over or resume a lesson
Exam with storage of score, date/time, and student responses
Certificate of Completion printed for passing exam
Printable table of questions, correct answers, and student responses
Navigation from the Lesson Menu to individual lessons and back is handled with JavaScript where a parameter is passed (UserName) to allow for the continual posting/querying of Database for the current user. Navigation to a bookmarked page within a book is also handled with JavaScript with the page ID being stored in the Database and retrieved from the Database.
Note: The Reports Menu will normally only be available to anyone with Administrator access. For the sake of this demonstration, if you click on the Company Logo, you will get access to this menu to view any of the available reports. Note also that for this demonstration, there are several objects available on the bottom-left side of the page that would not be there in an actual application. These include: a button to view the last page's ID number, the current username, and the ID number of the current page. These are there to allow us to check to see that things are working the way they should, especially the passing of the username variable between books using JavaScript.
