Re: Flash Site Request

We're going to use the generator and scripting. Luckily that's not my

job! At least right now it's not.


The hardest part was how to determine the score without the function of

a database. Because it's only 3 questions it wasn't so bad.


I made the 3 questions then made copies (Q1 = 1, Q2 = 2, Q3 = 4) with

different names. When you answer Q1 right it loads Q2-1 (-1 stands for 1

point). If you answer the question wrong it loads Q2-0 (-0 stands for no

point). If you answer Q2-1 right it loads Q3-2 (you now have 2 points).

If you answer Q3-2 right it loads S-3 (Your score of 100%). If you draw

the paths out like a pyramid on paper it's pretty easy to follow.


It only works for yes/no and multiple choice. And if you have a lot of

question this method would be intense.
