  Hi @choql,

  I am assuminh that you are using Open Sesame 4 and OSWeb 2.0, since mouse response are not supported in OSWeb 1.4. Can you confirm?

  Can you also confirm whether your task is running when you run it locally in the browser?

  Best,

  Fabrice.

  Hi Fabrice,

  Thank you for your response. Yes, I am using OpenSesame 4/OSWeb 2.0 for my study. When I try to run it locally in the browser, I get an 'OSWebCompatibilityError.' I think my python inline_script using cursor_roi is the issue. Is there a different way to record the subject's responses and create a 'correct' variable? I attached a screenshot of the inline_script as a reference.

  Hi @choql ,

  Python inline_script is in not supported by OSWeb. The solution would be to write an inline_javascript item that does the same thing:

  if (cursor_roi === answer) {
      correct = 1
  } else {
      correct = 0
  

  For more information about using JavaScript in OpenSesame, see:

  And for an overview of supported functionality in OSWeb, see:

  Hi Sebastiaan,

  Thank you so much! I have a quick question. I'm also trying to log cursor_roi to see which answer the child selected, but even after entering 'cursor_roi' variable in the logger, the excel output from OSWeb does not seem to include the variable. Could you help me with this issue?
