PHP Questionnaire

[DLloyd]

Hi everyone, i am marking a number of php questionnaire forms on my webpage and they connect up to a Mysql database, so far so good. However, the part i am having trouble with is... i need certain questionnaires to only be released for fixed periods of time (for example 1/2 weeks). Would anyone be able to help me out and give me some idea of how i would go about this?

 

Thanks

Define 'released'. Available for public perusal?

 

Define '1/2 week'. Are you counting by days hours or seconds?

Hi, by released, i mean the questionnaire will be able to be selected by a member of the public, this will be when it is released, and before released it should be invisible. I currently have two questionnaires in a list box that users can select from. 

 

and in terms of '1/2 week', i would say counting by days would be my best option.

 

Thanks again.

Assuming that the questionnaire contents are in a table which contains not only the questions but the title and a date field that you can call "release_date". Set that field to be the date you want it to be available and maybe have another field to close it so that when the page is called for and you query your db you select only those who have a release date and close date within your current window of time, ie, release <= today and expire >= today.
