Hi

In response to a request for information on synching text with audio, elsewhere on the Forum, I have attached a Word doc explaining how I have made words or phrases links which autoplay some audio on click. No audio player controls are displayed; the learner just hears the audio and can click again to hear the audio again. Here an example (on page 3) of how the learner experiences this
languagehub.uk/xerte/play.php?template_id=310#page3

This involves inserting and editing a bit of code in Source view. It's time-consuming to do if you have lots of recordings, and if you (like me) are not confident in editing code, it's easier to do if you are inserting the code into a blank Source view window (e.g. for an item in Categories). Many thanks to Takeshi Adachi of the University of Reading, UK, for showing me how to do this.

Best wishes
