Hi,
i have a web application in which some people should be able to create form
adding questions and possible answers.
basically user should:
1. type the question (which will be displayed to customer)
2. select type of answers (closed, open, list, multiple answer, and so
on...)
3. add possible answers (could be several answers for 1 questions)
what do i wonder it's how to do it in easy and nice way.
I mean:
1. should i have 1 page asking for question title, 1 page for answer type
and (for each possible answer) 1 page for each answer ?
2. should i have AJAX which will store data into session before storing
into DB ? in this case it could be a 3 div content: 1 for question, 1 for
new anwser type (a combobox for example) and 1 div for each new answer...
but in this case how can i allow user to tell to system "hey, i need to add
another answer for this question" ?
i really would appreciate some help as it is not so hard to do it but to do
it nice and well (userfriendly in fact) it is a little more complex.
thanks a lot for your help.
Alain,
I would make everything on a single page.
A text input for the Question Title
A dropdown list for the different types
A textarea for the answer section
Then below the form just put two buttons:
"Finished" which will save the last question and take them to your homepage
"Submit Another" which will save the current question and then blank our the
answer textarea
You can use AJAX to make it seemless as far as the submission of data goes,
or you could do <?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?> as your submit action.
