vigiw Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hello, I've tried creating a form for a "quiz" (not a right-wrong quiz, but one which scores numbers of values for each selection for a specific result) using Javascript, but it didn't work out. I was wondering how, using the same form, I could go about doing this in PHP (if possible). I gave up on Javascript because it kept showing "NaN" for the calculated score, even though every value is a number, but some are negative (e.g. -5 for one value; 3 for another). Any help for this would certainly be appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vigiw Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 Ok... I've created a code for my need as described above, and the form's submit button will POST to my php file. But when I submit, the PHP page comes up blank. Here's the code: <?php $q1 = $_POST['q1']; $q2 = $_POST['q2']; $q3 = $_POST['q3']; $q4 = $_POST['q4']; $q5 = $_POST['q5']; $q6 = $_POST['q6']; $q7 = $_POST['q7']; $q9 = $_POST['q9']; $q13 = $_POST['q13']; $q17 = $_POST['q17']; $q18 = $_POST['q18']; $q19 = $_POST['q19']; $q8 = $_POST['q8']; $q10 = $_POST['q10']; $q11 = $_POST['q11']; $q12 = $_POST['q12']; $q14 = $_POST['q14']; $q15 = $_POST['q15']; $q16 = $_POST['q16']; $soc = $q1 + $q2 + $q3 + $q4 + $q5 + $q6 + $q7 + $q9 + $q13 + $q17 + $q18 + $q19; echo "You are" $soc; "% Socially" if ($var >= 50) echo " Liberal<br>"; else echo " Conservative<br>"; $ec = $q8 + $q10 + $q11 + $q12 + $q14 + $q15 + $q16; echo "You are" $ec; "% Fiscally (Economcially)" if ($var >= 50) echo " Liberal<br>"; else echo " Conservative<br>"; ?> Any ideas? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You messed up the echo statements with the variables in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
