You might want to look at the "Multimedia Filters" section of your Moodle if it doesn't work straight away. <br/><br/>Basically just stick the html / java code that Answer Tips gives you into any html block on your Moodle course and you should be fine. <br/><br/>You will also be able to decide whether your users get the answer tips function on every page depending on the "Blocks" settings you have on your Moodle. Any page where your new Answer Tips block doesn't appear won't have the Answer Tips function. A handy thing to remember if you are doing exams or testing using your site!<br/><br/>Seth :-) Hi There Dorota,

I think it would probably work in your Moodle, it might depend on the type of filters you have switched on in your Moodle. You might want to look at the “Multimedia Filters” section of your Moodle if it doesn’t work straight away.

You will also be able to decide whether your users get the answer tips function on every page depending on the “Blocks” settings you have on your Moodle. Any page where your new Answer Tips block doesn’t appear won’t have the Answer Tips function. A handy thing to remember if you are doing exams or testing using your site!

Unf I'm a stubborn old windows user, so I've not ever tried out what you're talking about.(I know I'd like Mac OS, but surely there's just not as much freeware, is there?)<br/><br/>I do use the spell check feature on Firefox now, which I guess is in the same vein. I personally find it invaluable as a teacher spending a lot of time in various forums. Even though it's "txt englsh" it's still so embarrassing to make typos. Using the spel check, this doesn't happen :-D Sounds cool Micalet, thanks for the advice.
