Hi I would like to revisit the question - can I publish Scratch projects elsewhere?

There is one thread that is 13 pages long and so much information it is now confusing.

Can a moderator summarise the best options please...with details of what to include, where to find relevant files, how to write and save any HTML coded pages, etc?

I wish my students to save class projects:-

1. On a CD
2. On a separate web page

NOT using Camtasia, etc. options and best Scratch projects allow users to interact IMHO :-)

THANK YOU :-)

Do you mean if you have legal permission to do it?

Or are you asking how to do it?

If you're asking the latter, if you click Link to this Project at the sidebar, you can copy and paste the code for an applet. That code is HTML, which you can put on a HTML page within the <body> tags. As for the CD, I'm not sure what you want to do with it. Do you want to have it automatically open the project when the CD is inserted? Musical CD in a player? Or maybe just using a CD to transfer the project file?

Another question is - java or flash? As you probably know, Scratch has a both a java player and a flash player at the moment. The integration of both is a little different.

Thank you for the replies. I am asking how to copy.
1. I want to create a CD of my students' projects (80!) and give to them, parents and visitors as a gift. That CD should be able to be self-contained, meaning that the new user simply double clicks a link or a Scratch file within that CD and the project will open on their Mac (or PC).
2. As for HTML linking, I have not put these projects online.
3. An interactive Flash or Java option instructions would be welcome too.
Thank you :-)

for PC, just put scratch.exe, scratch.image and all *.dll in a folder, then use cmd to create about ~80 *.cmd files with the command

Code:

START scratch.exe scratch.image path\to\project

for mac, just use bash or something and copy the files from the install folder smile

You can compile them individually using Scratch2Exe and then put the .EXEs that you made on the CD... as long as all of your recipients have Windows computers.

Thank you but we are all Mac users here :-)

Isn't there a way I can create a hyperlinked file such as HTML which then when clicked goes to a specific Scratch project and opens it from the CD?

If I put both SCRATCH players (Mac and PC) on the CD will the projects work ?

I just want to find some way of distributing the students' projects without necessitating the need to go online and access online (as some parents are 'concerned' if projects go online -- even at nice sites like Scratch. Even my LEGO project has this issue too.)

Thanks.

Does all the parents' computer already have scratch on it?

If so, just sending the files are good. If not, we need to do a couple of steps:
1. Put all of the Scratch Program's data files into the CD.
2. Make scripts that will run each project from the Scratch Program (within the CD, mentioned in #1)

If it's the latter, I could try to provide you with some information about the process for Macs...

If you have a Mac, check out the wiki page on it.

OK. thanks. I'll just put SCRATCH on CD-R with the projects.
Scratch 2.0 may have the functionality built in.

Scratch 2.0 is made in Flash and I don't think it is possible to use parameters to open projects offline like in 1.4.
