Hi, I am sure this can be done somehow and I would appreciate some tips how to implement this:

I would like to configure a quiz that contains 15 questions, each will have two radio buttons for the answer. Depending on the answer I need a counter that counts the answers given. Overall there are five different types of answers:

A, B, C, D, F

If the user selects radio button 1 of the first question counter A is incremented, button 2 increments counter B. radio button 1 of second question increments counter A, radio button 2 increments counter F, etc.

In the end I would like to know the counters and send the user an email saying 4 A answers, 2 B answers etc.

I was thinking of using the question event behind each radio button question to trigger incrementing a hidden field, but I am not sure how this can be done?

One option I was thinking is to use an SQL Statement in the Form Completion to update the database directly, I would need some information though that identifies the instance of the form the user is working on.

I appreciate any tips I can get

Thanks

Thomas

Thomas, radiobutton is done usin g the funcradiocalc($(fieldname_id)). You should already have this function available to call in your javascript file. What you need to do is javascript of something like this:

$(CountA) is a hidden textbox field; default value of 0
$(CountB) is a hidden textbox field; default value of 0

switch (funcradiocalc($(RadioA_fieldID)))
{
case 'A':
$(CountA) = $(CountA) + 1
break;
case 'B':
$(CountB) = $(CountB) + 1
break;
}

switch (funcradiocalc($(RadioB_fieldID)))
{
case 'A':
$(CountA) = $(CountA) + 1
break;
case 'B':
$(CountB) = $(CountB) + 1
break;
}

Try this simple method of having only two radio buttons with A/B choices and see if this works out first and then you can append everything else. -- David

Thanks David;

I am just wondering where would I place this script that you wrote above?

Also I am wondering why the code that I placed in the Submit / JavaScript isn't working?
