Hi,

I'm looking to hire someone to create a survey for my website; this is not a one question poll but a bit more complicated. The survey questions have all been written, it just now needs to be implemented.

If interested, here's the possible issues: This is a 20 question survey with multiple choice answers; however, on some questions, people need to be able to click/check MORE than one answer.

I'm interested in having the results of the survey displayed only when takers have completed the *whole* survey. (Results showing percentages for each answer and total votes cast for each question.)

If you're not a web designer but know of a *specific script* that can do what I need (or can be customized to do what I need), please let me know. (I say *specific script* as some folks have tried to help by pointing me to script sites, but this hasn't helped.)

Web designers can contact me at:

Thank you much!

If you don't mind if it's hard coded, that should be easy.

Good luck,

Hi Max,

Forgive me, but I'm quite ignorant to "computer-speak" and am not a programmer. So I don't know what "hard coded" means.

Please elucidate.
And is this something you can/want to do? I can be emailed privately if you want to discuss.

Thanks!

This script: http://www.event-handler.com/

It's a very robust script, and the free version will handle most anything you need done. Additionally, once it is set up your quizzes/polls/surveys are created by filling in the blanks of a form, and it creates the html for you. I've installed this script for numerous clients who have all loved it.

Let me know if you need help installing it ...

Hi Tiffany,

I checked out the link, and the "You Tell Me" poll looks like it could work. Do you know, does the "checkbox" design option for anwers allow one to check more than one answer to a particular question? (It does on another survey I just found, but I like the design and features of this one better.) The "Recommend to a Friend" feature would be of great use too.

Since you have experience with this script and probably know all there is about it, I would be interested in having you set this up for me.

Please email me or let me know how I may contact you. Thanks.

Marc – thank you for your suggestion. The survey script you mentioned only allows up to 15 questions, unfortunately. But I appreciate it.

'hard-code' means that it is writen into the code. The other option would be to store the information somewhere else [database], and put it into the code where needed. With the second option, you can build an admin section, where you can modify settings and view data.

Yes, I can make something like this. But haven't the time. I've actually been working on an advanced polling script for over 3 weeks, but probably won't be done for another month. If you can hold out that long, I plan to offer it for free to the public. [no promises :)]

Hope you find what you'r looking for,

Mark Hensler
If there is no answer on Google, then there is no question.

Yes, a checkbox (the square ones) on a form will allow you to select more than one option. If you don't want people to be able to select more than one option, use radio buttons (the round ones). That applies to every form, not just with a script Smiling

There are ways of limiting checkboxes to only allow one choice, using javascript or other such things, but why reinvent the wheel when you can just use a radio button? Smiling
