Having problems with message search?
Hi Zabb,
There is nothing natively in mrInterview to allow you to do this; however, it might be possible with some creative programming. Here are a few tips that might help you get this solution.
1. Just because mrInterview didn't place a question on the page, doesn't mean you can't POST an answer to a question. Whatever values mrInterview receives from an html post, it will look for that question and set its value; if it can't find a metadata question to set the value of an error will be logged. This means you can place an input tag on the page yourself (several ways to do this...banner or even hard coded in a template) and if the respondent sets is value, that value will be caught and saved upon a post.
2. The use of the "set" command. This allows you set a temp (dim) variable to an object. Since you CANNOT ask or show a question in a function or sub, you can set a question based on your "next question" value to a temp variable and ask it. This means you would simply have a for loop with a few lines of code, setting a dim variable to a question (either the respondents choice OR the next one in the sequence) then ask the dim variable.
Hope this helps and good luck.

Subject: [NADUG] Need Hyperlink on the survey (Urgent)
Hi all,
I am programming a survey using mrInterview and my client needs
Hyperlinks to each of the question on top of the screen. In this
survey there is flexibility for a respondents to answer any question
or set of questions of their choice.
for instance, if a respondent answering about brand profiles, next
they may skip brand satisfaction questions and directly answer brand
expections..
Please help,my team has a hard time in figuring out....
thanks in advance,
regards
zabb
