Hi Petr!
Regarding your PS, one might add to this long (?) list of JS uses in Moodle the fact that the Hot Potatoes exercises (although not part of Moodle itself) totally rely on JS being enabled.
Too bad!

Thanks for your answer. Then why not use the shortanswer question type?

Akiva > I need the student to choose the correct out of 300 possible answers.

I simply cannot imagine why you need to ask a student to select the correct answer out of a drop-down list of 300 items. Is this a "real-world situation" or purely speculative?

> Can you create pages of learning text / theory etc within Dreamweaver and then upload the content into Moodle?

Of course you can. I do it all the time. I create all my "lessons" on my computer, as HTML documents/files, using Dreamweaver™ (but one can use any of the numerous HTML editors available). Most of my HTML documents are linked to an external CSS file and use embedded images. When I've finished editing a "lesson" HTML page, I compress it (plus the needed images) to a zip file, upload this zipped file to my Moodle course, unzip it, go to Edit / Add a Resource / Link to a file or web site and create a link to that lesson HTML page.

Unfortunately, because I do not have admin rights, I do not know where the moodledata folder is located on my institution's site, so I cannot use Dreamweaver's great integrated FTP or WebDav files upload devices.

Hope that helps,

Joseph
