how to: questionnaire

Is it possible to build a questionnaire in Freeway? (Off course yes.)

Are there any suggestions how to do it? Maybe from Walter or David?

Any advise is highly appreciated.

You can build the interface for a questionnaire in Freeway, but the form handler and server-side storage logic is completely up to you. You could use the PHP Feedback Form Action (or the new Send Form Action) to make a simple handler, this will allow you to lay out a form and send any submissions from it to your e-mail address. But you won’t be able to do anything fancy, like a multi-page or multi-stage form, or any sort of branching logic (they answered D for question 4, therefore shunt them off to this alternate branch of the form on the next page).

You can do a lot of this, very simply, using SurveyMonkey (and other, similar services). Prices vary; there may be a free account with tons of ads.

If you do that, then the only thing you would need to do in Freeway is create a link to your survey address. There may also be an option to create an embedded survey, in which case you could use the iframe Action to insert the survey into your designed page.

There is also Wufoo

You of course could do it in javascript in FW but you have to weigh up the time spent vs one of the above mentioned services.

This page(s) http://www.deltadesign.co/fw_examples/walts_scripts/ uses an example from Walter that could be adapted to this purpose.

Thank you Walter, thank you David. I really appreciate your help.

Actually it is an easy thing. There’s no feedback needed. The questions are leading towards an “answer”, wether you are qualified to visit a special lecture.

There are a few YES and NOs and at the end a “yes you are qualified”. Or maybe not.

From where can I get Walters Script? (BTW The Survey is for a school.)

I think it is all covered in the linked FWT thread http://freewaytalk.net/thread/view/108340

There are a few YES and NOs and at the end a “yes you are qualified”. Or maybe not.

However if you are wishing to determine the final page on the basis of the information collected that makes things a bit more complicated and I would probably steer you back to a canned solution.

But this does depend on your criteria ie if the answer to Q34 was Yes then qualified.html if not then not-qualified.html

But if your criteria was we need yes for Q 1-5 and Q11, 16, 22 and No for Q 28 and 29 then it might be tricky.

We would require as much info as possible to help you decide that.

Also, if you are going to do anything like this that restricts people from [thing of value], you MUST do it on the server, not in JavaScript, as my toy example does. There are no secrets in the JavaScript world; everything is visible to the browser, because that’s how it works: in the browser.

If I were doing this quickly and cheaply, I would use PHP to process the form, and put the logic as to what content to display on the “thanks” page in that PHP. I wouldn’t do anything simpler, like have two thanks pages and redirect to one of them, because that page could leak out.
