PHP Quiz Source Code

Just a quick heads up to let you know that you can now download all of the source code for the PHP Quiz. This might make it easier for you to get up and running without trying to follow all of the series. I’ve also included the small amount of JavaScript too.

You can download it here. I’ll also put a download link at the top of each post in the series.

Cheers,
ElanMan

    Hi Ahmed,
    the quiz should display the user’s choices at the end on the results.php page. Have a look at the working example.
    As for having multiple quizes on a site, I’m currently working on a new quiz script that will make this sort of thing much easier to achieve and will alsao work with mysql, which a lot of people have requested.
    Stay tuned :)

    I was looking for quiz and i am happy i havea found exactly what i wanted here))
    i was testing the script and founded that there is something that i would like to change in it. i need to see in Acronym quiz this:
    1. correct answers are always first in answers page.this is very bad for quiz users .i want to select the right answer by myself and change the order as i wish .
    i’ve read you posts here and i couldn’t find enought information about how to make my Correct answer in different places.

    Question1?
    1.
    2.Correct
    3.
    4.

    Question2?
    1.
    2.
    3.
    4.Correct

    Question3?
    1.Correct
    2.
    3.
    4.

    the wrong answers work well.

    the second problem is that the number of question is 20 and i want it to be for example 11 the answers page is awfully wrong. is there something else to add or change?

    this is what i want so much and want you to ask for a help.i am ready to pay as much as it needs to.

    Hi bigfan :)
    The correct answer isn’t always listed first in the possible answers. Have you tried the online example? The correct answer should be randomly placed/shuffled.
    TBH, this quiz was just a simple demo to understand SimpleXML and was never meant to be a decent quiz app.
    To that end, I’m creating a simple, more robust quiz framework that I’ll publish asap which will work with MySQL instead of xml files.
    Thanks for your comments :)

    Hey bigfan, I’ve just taken the quiz and indeed the correct answer is always the first. Not sure why atm as it wasn’t like that originally. I’ve changed some of the online code a while back and have probably altered it.
    Have you downloaded the file? Chances are that that has the original code in it.
    Apologies :)

    hey, the download link is busted i think.. i click the link and it takes me to a messed up html page instead of downloading the .zip.

    help?

  11. joseastwood says:
    December 13, 2010 at 12:18 am

    scratch that, i just downloaded the file and removed the .html extension.

    The questions are coming out with the correct answer first as ‘bigfan’ mentioned. The code is the same as that of the tutorial. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    @joseastwood
    Sorry about the download link not working. Turns out wp-super-cache was causing the problem. Hopefully should be fixed now. Thanks for letting me know.
    As for the correct answers coming out first, I’ll have to have a look at the code again.
    Plans for a new, improved version have yet to be implemented so the least I can do is fix the code people are already downloading…
    Will update this post when I’ve sorted this out.
    Thanks again :)

    OK, it seems the array_rand function has changed since php 5.2.10.
    As a result, I’ve changed the shuffle_assoc function in functions.php to the following:

    function shuffle_assoc($array) {
 
  $keys = array_keys($array);
  shuffle($keys);
  $shuffled = array();
  foreach ($keys as $key)
    $shuffled[$key] = $array[$key];
 
  return $shuffled;
}

    You’ll also need to change the following two lines in test.php:

    shuffle_assoc($answers[$num]);
foreach ($answers[$num] as $answer) {

    and make them look like this:

    $shuffledAnswers = shuffle_assoc($answers[$num]);
foreach ($shuffledAnswers as $answer) {

    You should now have randomly placed correct answers again.
    I’ll upload the amended code shortly :)

    EDIT:
    The amended code has now been added to the download above.

    Hi there,
    I’ve checked the download and it seems to work ok for me. Perhaps my server was having a temporary glitch. Please try again and let me know if you still have problems.

    Hi guy!I still have the same problem.This is full message:”cannot download this file.Details:HTTP/1.1.500 Internal Server Error”.Can you upload the code to other host(mediafire.com,rapidshare.com,etc…) or send me to mail:truongdang.works@gmail.com!

    Hi, I’ve put the code on sourceforge. You can download a zip file from here.
    Hope that works for you.

    Hi Shin, when you say it’s not working properly, what errors are you getting? What version of php are you using? Have you set the correct permissions on leaders.xml?

    October 1, 2011 at 6:14 pm

    ElanMan, thanks for your work, but in newer versions of PHP when processor.php starts, it just write “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /Users/dalibor/Sites/web-acronyms/functions.php:114) in /Users/dalibor/Sites/web-acronyms/processor.php on line 60″ … any ideas? I need help. Thank you.

  27. ElanMan says:
    October 1, 2011 at 8:56 pm

    Have you downloaded the zip file from sourceforge?

  28. DS says:
    October 1, 2011 at 9:56 pm

    Yes, I have. Thanks for quick reply.

  29. ElanMan says:
    October 1, 2011 at 11:13 pm

    And you’re still having problems?
    I’ll look in to it :)
    Thanks for the comments :)

  30. DS says:
    October 1, 2011 at 11:51 pm

    Yes, still doesn’t work, probably same problem like Nick wrote. Thanks, if you try fix it ;-)

    Hi again DS,
    tbh I’m having a problem recreating the ‘headers already sent’ error on my local machine.
    I haven’t had a lot of time to look at though.
    It’s possible that there is some trailing whitespace in functions.php after the closing php tag.
    I’ll have a better look at this tomorrow, in the meantime, have a check for whitespace.
    What version of php are you using? I’m on 5.3.5.

    Thanks again for the feedback :)

  32. DS says:
    October 2, 2011 at 12:59 pm

    Hi ElanMan! I used 5.3.6 but maybe it depends more on server configuration, then version of PHP. Anyway, many thanks! … but it was definitely a whitespace on last line in functions.php … so simple :-D
