Albert Ip expresses dissatisfaction with the solution to the SCORM cross-domain problem presented in the Engelbrecht article and outlines an approach which has been used in Australia that has successfully overcome this problem. The solution described by these authors proposes that "before the rendering of any content, a SCO should query the LMS for [namespace].session.style. SCO for the style sheet to be applied and write the style information to the client browser." This approach contrasts with the Dynamic Appearance model, proposed by the Canadian Department of National Defense, which requires that learning objects be written in XML (in my mind, a much more sane and portable approach). This paper is available as a zipped MS-Word file (which is what you'll get if you click on the link).
