Glossary lookup not saved in activity database?

Hello!
As part of my research into learning strategies I'm interested in tracking as much of my students' activity in my Moodle courses as possible.
I would very much like the Glossary module to track the students look-up of Glossary entries, not especially those look-ups resulting of a browsing activity but more those resulting from clicking the hyperlinked words in Resource texts.
Would this be feasible in a further version of the Glossary module? Or could it be done with some hacking (in Javascript rather than PHP?)

Thanks in advance

This is a great inquiry, and I'd love to see it too.

You might be addressing the wrong forum, it sounds like a new development that those in other (more general) areas might look at too.

Try General developer forum maybe.

Hi Joseph,

a new action "view entry" has been added to record every "visit" (from hyperlinked text) to glossary entries.

It will be available in 1.5.

Thanks Eloy!

Now we'll be able to track & see whether all those efforts gone into creating glossaries & Moodle's auto-linking system are leading to actual look-up of glossary entries!
As soon as we have 1.5 stable installed I'll start the tracking study.
