I'm making a quiz with PHP, but I am using JavaScript to go between the questions first and then I submit the form and let PHP do the rest.
I made two JavaScript functions called ChangeQuestion()
and BackQuestion()
.
function ChangeQuestion(prev, next) {
$('#' + prev).fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + next).fadeIn(600);
});
}
function BackQuestion(last, prev) {
$('#' + prev).fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + last).fadeIn(600);
});
}
They're pretty basic. But what I would like to do is check if their is at least one radio button checked in a question before continuing with the function. You'll be able to see in my markup/HTML how I'm using the above functions.
First of all, here's a jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/3XdUA/
Here's my markup:
<form id="quiz1" name="quiz1" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>">
<div id="starter">
Hello! Welcome to the HTML Quiz powered by PHP. Click on Start to begin.
<br /><br />
<button type="button" onclick="ChangeQuestion('starter','question1');$('#qIndicator').fadeIn(800);">Start »</button>
</div>
<div id="question1" style="display:none;">

2. What is the proper way to add a blue background to the <code><body></code> and remove the margin & padding?

4. Suppose you have this HTML on your page:
<br /><br />

How would you link to the above target?
<br />
<br />
<input type="radio" name="q4" id="q4-a1" />
<label for="q1-a1"><a url="#target4">Check Old Listing as well</a> </label>

<br />
<input type="radio" name="q4" id="q4-a4" />
<label for="q1-a4"><a href="Listing.target4">Check Old Listing as well</a></label>
<br /><br />
<button type="button" onclick="BackQuestion('question3','question4');$('#qIndicator').html('Question 3 of 10');">« Back</button>

Yes, it is long. Sorry about that. But, I provided a jsFiddle which would be much easier to understand. (because of the preview, etc.)
I do know how to check if a radio is selected, but I do not know how to make sure that one is selected with this function .
use :radio:checked
function ChangeQuestion(prev, next) {
var current = $('#' + prev);
var selection = current.find(":radio:checked").attr("id");
if (selection) {
alert(selection);
}
current.fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + next).fadeIn(600);
});
}
an alternative to my update would be
function ChangeQuestion(prev, next) {
var current = $('#' + prev);
if (prev != "starter") {
var selection = current.find(":radio:checked").attr("id");
if (selection === undefined) {
alert("no selection");
} else {
alert(selection);
current.fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + next).fadeIn(600);
});
}
} else {
current.fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + next).fadeIn(600);
});
}
}
I just didn't like repeating
current.fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + next).fadeIn(600);
});
Use the :checked
pseudo selector.
function ChangeQuestion(prev, next) {
var prevQ = $('#'+prev);
var numChecked = prevQ.find('input[type=radio]:checked').length;
if( prev !=='starter' && numChecked == 0 ) {
// no radio checked in this question
return;
}
prevQ.fadeOut(600, function() {
$('#' + next).fadeIn(600);
});
}
You can also use $("[name=q1]").is(":checked")
just to check if something is selected. Of course, substitute q1
with whichever question you are on. In your case it looks like you'll be using q1
, q2
, etc.
