The eLab Player is a light-weight (100K) and unique Macromedia Flash SWF [1] movie that is composed of a series of intelligent, interchangeable and reusable templated pages that manages the output presentation.
Easy to use, Easy to create!
This Flash movie can be modified, re-ordered at will and populated by content structured in the XML file it calls. In addition, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) technology is leveraged to format the data, so that every aspect of the final output can be controlled from the outside.
With this approach, the instructional designer need only update the XML document to change any aspect of the content displayed in the Flash SWF movie.

Faster Development & Rapid Integration
The eLab Editor is a standalone desktop authoring application that enables the rapid integration of course content into pre-defined learning activities or Learning Objects. The eLab Editor permits the designer to determine the course structure, integrate the content, determine which media elements will appear, set quiz and interactivity parameters.
Once the course is built, the eLab Editor generates an XML file and a CSS file that interacts with the eLab Player.

Fast and Easy Content modification and updates
The very nature of Documedia's eLab Editor is to facilitate rapid integration, manage product content, make modifications and update without the intervention of a Flash developer.
Because the content is separate from the player in a universal and flexible format such as XML, translation of the course text is simplified and rapid. The eLab Editor authoring application can be purchased on a per-use basis.

The eLab Player, which contains the interface, doesn't require any modification unless of course it is to reflect cultural needs, i.e.: text flowing from right-to-left rather then left-to-right.
Documedia can develop a custom player and additional custom templates to meet client's needs.
