Looping

Hey there!

I have come accross a problem in using the following code:

" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">


Addition

The code works fine, but what I am trying to do with this code is make it work as a loop.

What I want is when the user hits enter (answers the question) it will take you to another question (20 questions in total). Then after that, it will display what questions you got wrong and what questions you got right. When I tried to loop it before, it just gave me two questions instead of one and it wouldn't let you know if you were right or wrong. The loop never ended.

Plus, I want to make the text bigger. The text box I can make bigger no problem , but the actual sum I can only make it as big as +6.

Could someone please help me with this?

it's been many years(20+) since i've done any real programming, and never with javascript, so i won't be able to give you any working code but here's a link to the type of loop i'd probably use called a while loop :- http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_loop_while.asp i hope this will be of some help to you until someone else with better knowledge/experience has the time to reply..

Hi GaryORLFC,

Just like terry1966, I'm no Javascript expert, but the biggest hurdle I see is how to retain the data between questions. If you want to be able to show what has been answered previously there should be a way for you to store the information each time a question is answered. Just to give you an example, I've revised your code a little bit just to get the loop to work properly:

JScript:

Body:

+
Compute


x

I have to apologize for mutilating the code you provided but I have never written Javascript before. I'm sure there more efficient ways than the one I came up with

I used a hidden form field to temporarily store the loop counter () so we can retrieve and increment it each time the user clicks the button to check their answer. Using cookies may be something to look into or better yet server-side scripting.

HTH.
