asp_web_howto thread: Quiz management system


Message #1 by "L. Scott" <lscott@m...> on Tue, 30 Oct 2001 09:32:29 +0200
I've got a database (Access) of question, which I want to use as a

backend for a quiz.  Any suggestions on a script which can do this (for

multiple quizzes, and a database of question which can change from time

to time), as well as keep tract of user results.  I use session

variables (one being a userid, which is also kept in a database) to keep

track of users after they log in.  Maybe this varable can be used to

tract individual scores, and write it into the database.



Thank you in advance

Leon Scott

Hi,



You have to track with userid. You have to store question in database with

srnos. and then srno should be selected by generated unique random number

abd that question will be loaded into the page but on the page you can keep

diffenet sr. nos. while displaying. And while scoring you have to make an

loop which will count the numbers where the answer matches with ans in

database.

Scott,



        I think an XML database will be better suited for your application.



regards,

Dennis.
