Questions from database

[Anon]

I want to do this:

There are text-based questions in the database. I want to show them one by one to the user. User will see a question, select an answer (a radio button maybe, like a b c d) for it, then push the next button. Program records the answer (in a file maybe), then brings the next question from the database...

Thanx anyway 😉

Thanks for informing us of what you want to do. Do you have a question about this?

🙂 sorry i forgot to write my question. The question is of course "how can i do this with php?" Calling the same file again and again does not work...

You'd probably build a script that takes in the question ID to ask (as a post) and then displays that question.

Your script would check to see if an answer was passed and record that information, I'd suggest that you record the information in the database (that's what it's best at doing). Since your users should have to login to get access to the questions you can store there answers based on the userid.

If you script is called without a question id, you would display the first question, and if it had a question id but no answer you could force the user to answer the previous question first.

I'd guess that you'd have a form that holds the current question id, next question id, and answers that would get submitted.
