Creating Quiz In Flash With Questions Passed Through Flashvars
Oct 13, 2011
I am getting questions from the database (just text) and then passing them to flash via flash vars.I want one question to be displayed then the user will answer (text) and click a button and then the next question will be displayed for them to answer and so on.I am not hoping for overly specific advice but as I am very new to flash/actionscript am just looking for broad advice (or links ?) on how to approach this. Can I do it all from one frame just using actionscript?I think what I am really after (assuming I am not way off track) is if all the questions should be handled at once which I guess will require some kind of loop that listens for some buttonclick event to move to the next question ..... or be 'reloading' the flash movie and dealing with only 1 question at a time.

I want one question to be displayed (just text) and then the user will type in their answer (just text) then they should press a button to move onto the next question to do the same. The number of questions is not set and depends on how many questions the asker has created, these are passed through flashvars from the backend database.
So can I just do this in the one frame with a loop or something going through each param in flashvar ? Or would a better way be reload the page (it's going on a website) after each question answered passing the flash a single question.

Anyone know where to start thinking about logic for an XML quiz with multiple correct answers, that when the user gets the question right, that question is removed from the random array of questions so we never need to answer it again?

I'm trying to create a simple quiz that picks questions from an XML file, then checks the answer the user enters against the answers stored in the same XML file. Every time you press blue_btn it should bring up a new question. Right now I'm stuck -- it shows only the last question in the XML file, when I enter the right answer it tells me it's wrong, and when I press blue_btn again nothing happens.

I wanted to randomise my quiz questions and to allow all questions to appear but no similar questions should appear twice. I tried to use arrays to do it but I kept having errors.

I need to display a word passed to the flash movie through flashvars. My objective is to display this word centered inside a black rectangle which length adapts to the word length. The box should be on top of everything, aligned with the right margin of the Flash Movie and 100px from the top margin.

I'm working on a quiz-style piece right now and in short it's several pages of multi choice questions, each rewarding a certain point amount that is added up at the end and given specific results based on the point range scored. (i.e. 10-20 = good, 21-30 = great... etc)
For code I've stopped here:
if (answercheck == 40 - 52){
trace("Feedback: Range 40 - 52");
form.gotoAndStop(3);
form.AnswerTotal.Number = answercheck;
}
Answercheck is the var with the total points accumulated. Form is the mc with the feedback frames based on their point totals. AnswerTotal is the dynamic text box I'm trying to load the exact point total the user acquired into at the end.

For my project i am creating a quiz on the Romans. There are only three questions that the user must answer with three possible answers in frames 3,4 and 5.I want to know the code that would help me to allow a Jpeg (an evaluation of the answer given on each frame) to be placed on frame 6 ready for the user to receive feedback for each answer they have given. So when the user selects an answer, the corresponding jpeg to that answer is placed ready on frame 6 for their arrival after they have answered the third question.

I'm trying to create an application that receives variables passed through FlashVars and makes use of the new TLFTextField. I have run into an issue with accessing the FlashVars after declaring a TLFTextField variable.
The code I have is as follows:
ActionScript Code:
import fl.text.TLFTextField;
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
[code]....
The HTML file is passing a FlashVars value of "title=ThisIsTheTitle" If I run the code, the tf TextField is empty. If I comment out the last line that creates the TLFTextField, the FlashVars come through fine and the tf TextField displays the "title" variable that was passed through FlashVars.If I change the last line to read:
ActionScript Code:
var titleTLF:TextField = new TextField();
It works fine (the "title" variable from FlashVars is show in the tf TextField). I don't understand why delcaring a TLFTextField prevents the FlashVars from being accessed.

I am sending variables from my html page:
Code:
<param name="FlashVars" value="nameCheck=boo&imageCheck=image01.jpg">
...in the parameters section of the flash object code.
I know that to extract the info I need to basically use:
Code:
var paramObj:Object = LoaderInfo(this.root.loaderInfo).parameters;
...in my as3 code but I am wondering what would be the syntax to return a text field containing the sent variable 'boo' and fill an image area with the file name from the variable 'imageCheck'?

I am still using flash 6.0, the version the school gave me, anyway first of all are there any updates available somewhere? I'm still with the original 6.0000000 version. I am creating a flash quiz using the templates available, it's really easy and everything is going well. However, is there a way to redirect the user (getURL) if he has a percentage of say, 80% or higher?

I have made a start on my quiz, in order to complete the criterions I have to create a project (a quiz in my case) which uses a variety of methods and tools e.g. drag and drop features, user text input and numeric input etc.I had planned on creating 4 topics and 4 questions in each. Having searched the forum it appears that the common consensus for creating a quiz is to set up your questions in a XML file however I have no idea how to use this or what it is. Moreover from my research I found I appear to be doing things slightly different to other people who are doing or did a quiz. This difference is how the answers are input; I will be user input text fields along, multiply choice buttons etc. I also am placing my questions in different places for different sections and I am also required to use video.This may still be able to be done however I only have 29 days to complete the task and the way I'm planning will be quicker as I understand how it works at least. The first problem I am having is how to code for the input text. I plan on allowing for the user to input a word and then to compare that word against the correct answer. This also brings me onto my second problem. Once a section of questions has been completed I plan on taking the user to a screen which displays how many answers they got correct. This would involve tracking their answers and comparing them to a set of correct answers however I have no idea how to do this. (from what i have learnt recently the use of an array maybe?).
The final problem I am having at the moment is setting up a 'barrier of sorts' In my first question i have set up a mask which applies only to the image I have also placed on the stage. The mask is applied to a circle which can be dragged around displaying small sections of the picture at a time. I wish to stop the circle leaving the picture as it falls under the background once it as left the area of the image. This results it in disappearing. I have no idea how to solve this and I could not find information on it. The solution I think would be to stop the masked circle leaving the area of the picture OR to reset it back to original position if it is released outside the images area.My quiz is far from complete at the moment and I have not yet even finished the frames for each of the questions however these problems are fundamental to the quiz's success and so I felt I needed to confront them now.I can upload what I have done so far and send the link in a pm so you can see what I mean (if it is not already clear)

I am writing a module and I have a section in this flash file where a quiz comes up and if you don't click on the right answer it tells you to try again. If you click on the right answer it will load the next swf file. But I can't get this last part to work. The quiz is within an xml file.
var current:Number = 0;
var qbox:Sprite = new Sprite;
var quiz:XML; var xloader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
qbox.x = 10; qbox.y = 125; this.addChild(qbox);

I know there are quite a few examples of drag and drop quizzes but what I need is a tad bit different. I will have a list of answers that a user must put in the correct order in some slots. When the user drags a particular answer onto a slot even if it isn't exactly on top but nearby, the target will sense this and snap the answer into the slot. The user can change the order at anytime.
[URL]
Ok at this site it has exactly the snap motion to the target that I wanted. Although I don't need the feature where the movieclip goes back to it's original location if it is not placed in the correct target. In fact I can't have that because the quiz results will tell the user after they finish putting their answers in the order they believe to be correct, whether or not their order of answers was correct after they click the submit button.

I had an existing client ask me about the possibility of building an online quiz. I am fairly adept at working "inside" Flash, but always run into problems when trying to export data "from" Flash anywhere else. I am also trying to figure out if Flash is the best application to build this quiz (I see other possible apps like Captivate, but don't know if they are necessary for what I am trying to do).
What I need to do:
I need to create a Login screen to attach the final text score to an individual.
Create (50) separate screens for 50 questions with multiple answers for each (simple enough) with submit buttons once the answer(s) are chosen.
Each time an answer is submitted it has a certain "weight" toward the total score (which I am guessing that I could track into a variable inside Flash?) When the test is complete all I need to do is send that Person's Name/Total Score to a database. Is this something best accomplished using Flash?

I have a flash file that I am trying to debug. It loads a second flash file which it passes data to, and then that data is sent to a server. Unfortunately the data isnt coming out how it should.
I would like to know if anyone knows of a way to see what data is being passed to the embeded flash file from the original flash file. I need to make sure the data going to it is correct.

I have a simple quiz (Q and A) to design that contains both input fields as well as dynamic fields which gets a value (text or number) from an onClick action. When i submit the form, using the code from this thread (http://board.flashkit.com/board/show...hreadid=766156), i managed to get the input fields content to get saved on to the CSV file, however the dynamic content doesn't. it only works when i literally type the value in the text field.

I am having trouble loading a quiz.swf into another another movie. To generate my quiz I goto
File > New > Templates > Quiz > Quiz_style_1
And in the first frame of the example quiz I add:
stop(); // To prevent playback
this._lockroot = true; // to preserve the heirarchy
Then I publish the quiz as testquizex.swf, and I can test this movie and it works fine by itself. Then in a different movie I start with a blank scene I add a keyframe and I insert
stop();
var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
mc.loadMovie("testquizex.swf");
Now the movie imports and loads into the frame and I can navigate through to the first question page, but the quiz doesn't actually work anymore i.e. drop targets dont work and the score won't increase. Is there anything else I have to do to the stock quiz template to make it importable into another project?

I'd like it to display a question on one page, then have a next button which takes the user to another page telling them if that question was correct or not, and if it is correct they can move on to the next question (by clicking another next button) and if they got it wrong, have to go back and answer it again. However I have no clue how to do this! which includes a quiz. Would it be a better idea to create the quiz in Flash or something and then embed it into my Java application? Or just do the whole thing in Java?

Useful link or resource or idea for creating a quiz in flash.My quiz has got these features that has to be mapped with the functionality
a) total of 150 questions divided in 4 modules
b) a time limit of 180 mts
c) option box or radio button for choices
d) mark for review functionality
e) negative marking
f) final review of correct and wrong answers
this is very similar to BITSAT exam conducted in India, by BITS PILANI as a online exam.

I have made a quiz from mixing and matching from various tutorials of the internet, and now want to make the questions (multiple choice) and possibly the answers appear shuffled. The xml looks like this:
<quiz>
<title>Quiz</title>
<items>
<item>
<question>In which continent is the country Japan located?</question>
<answer correct="y">Asia</answer>
<answer>Europe</answer>
<answer>Africa</answer>
<answer>America</answer>
</item>
and here is what I've got so far with the actionscript!
