Multiple Personality Quiz

August 28th, 2008

A personality quiz keeps a separate score of how many times the answer for each personality is selected and then displays a result based on all the scores. This particular version allows for 4 personalities and therefore has 15 results pages depending on how the final scores are split between them (four pages for almost all one personality, six pages for mostly two of the four personalities, four pages for even splits between three personalities, and one for when all four have similar scores).

Analysis Quiz

August 26th, 2008

The first alternative that I created to multiple choice quizes is what I call an analysis quiz. There are no right or wrong answers, instead each answer has a score allocated to it and the scores of all the selected answers are added together. The result of the quiz is determined based on that final score.

This unobtrusive multiple choice quiz allows up to 6 answers per question and can display one or two questions per page. Apart from the number of questions and answers it works almost identically to the first multiple choice quiz that I ever wrote.

Well it is actually the third multiple choice quiz script that I wrote.

Provided that it isn’t actually blocked on the server, it is relatively easy to find out when any web page was last modified even if the page doesn’t include that information within the text that the page displays.
