A Moodle filter plug-in to embed ChemCollective Virtual Lab problems using the Vlab Java applet. It embeds any assigments (both local and global).

NOTICE: this software is in no way endorsed by or affiliated with the official ChemCollective project or team.

This filter will replace links to a Vlab file (.xml) in [vlab]...[/vlab] block with a java applet that plays that ChemCollective Virtual Lab inline

To install (on Moodle 2):

Un-compress the Zip/Gzip archive, and copy the folder renamed 'vlabembed' to your moodle/filter/ directory.
Log in to Moodle as admininstrator, go to Site Administration | Plugins | Filters | Manage Filters.
Choose 'On' or 'Off but available' in the drop-down menu next to 'VlabEmbed'.
Configure plugin width, height, language (available codes: BR - Brasilian Portugese, CA - Català, DE - Deutsch, ES - Español, FR - Français, GR - Greek, RU - Russian, UK - Ukrainian) and autodownload facilities.

Usage

The syntax to embed a project:

[vlab]http-link to a Vlab problem file (.xml)[/vlab]

Tested in Moodle 2.9.
No javascript, no database access - very simple!
Filter syntax is case-sensitive.
The plug-in is internationalized in Moodle 2 in Deutsch, Russian, and Ukrainian.
