May 19, 200917 yr Hi there, I am new to web-design. I know the basic design skill (html), but no much about other languages. I have a project which requires me to make a web-listening test. It would be something like this : http://www.delosis.com/listening/home.html I think they're using Java but I'm not sure. Could somebody give me some guides on what to read/learn so that I would be able to create something like this. Thanks a lot.
May 19, 200917 yr Looks like Flash. From the size of the file, and length of the clips I'd assume that the audio files are embedded into the Flash. What you need is to create Flash app, which loads each pair of clips after the other, and in ActionScript (part of Flash) keep track of the answers. I only tried the first two clips, but what happens after you do all 30?

I only tried the first two clips, but what happens after you do all 30? you could see your results after all 30. does it has any java component? i saw this- <script LANGUAGE=JavaScript1.1> or by all means i just have to read up something on Flash app ? please advise.
May 19, 200917 yr The test is made with Flash, the Javascript is just to embed the Flash file into the web page. The results thing should do be doable with Flash too PS: Don't confuse Java with Javascript, they're very different

May 19, 200917 yr OK Thanks a lot :-) can i assume i just google for Flash app i should be able to do something like this? I'm afraid it's not as simple as that. There's a learning curve to Flash. First of all you need Adobe Flash (which costs money), then you need to learn how to use it, obviously enough to make your application and I can't say it's easy. There's plenty of tutorials out there though which should help you get going.
