I just started my Hot Potatoes and found out it H.P.'s birthday :) So, just a word to say Happy Birthday to you, Stewart and Martin, and to all those which,...
Thanks for your kind thoughts. As one of the developers of the program, it's always rewarding to read that people find our work useful and helpful for teaching...
I have a huge number of questions I want to put into JQuiz and JMatch, but they are all currently either in .doc or .txt formats. To get them into either Quiz...
Hi You're going through the hassle of transforming unstructured or implicitly structured data into explicitly structured data. Your task is adding tags around...
Hi A question to you all about JMatch quiz. In creating a JMatch quiz, is it possible to create new pages within the same quiz. i.e. if there is 25 matching...
Hi Chris If you have a JMatch exercise of 25 items and all you want to do is create five exercises drawn from those 25, simply save five copies of the data...
Hi there, What you need to do is to create a sequence of exercises, consisting of as many questions for each exercise as is appropriate to your purpose. See...
Hi Martin, Thanks for your reply, Ive tested out the Help toic as you suggested, and it works fine. Your help and time taken to reponse to my question is very...
I am programming exercises that must be done in a set order. The user must answer a question correctly to move on the the next one. I have this working for...
In my question, I should have explained that the ChangeQ(1) function is successfully getting called. Below is my version of that function, customized slightly...
Whoops. This is embarrassing. Evidently, I'm calling the function in the wrong place within the MultiSelect code. It is only working if I have at least one...
Hi It looks like you are working from the example in task 8 on <http://web.uvic.ca/hrd/hotpot/howto/hacking_workshop/index.htm> is that right? Please post the...
Hi Stewart, Yes, I am using a customization from that workshop exercise. Actually, I've had it working for Short Answer and Multiple Choice for a long time,...
Woo! I seem to have solved it, but I'm worried about the implications of how I did it. I _re-commented_ that line in the ChangeQ function that was supposed to...
Well, for anyone curious enough to be following this soliloquy, that fix didn't work. It prevents the score feedback form page from opening after the exercise...
Correction: Whoops. I added a line setting State[CurrQNum][0] = 0 (not 1 as stated in my previous email). Ok, now I'll stop spamming everybody. - Henri ... ...
It's me again. Well, that was indeed a rickety workaround. It breaks the form at the end of the exercise if the last question is multiselect. But I am at my...
I notice when I go back to edit Cloze exercises, after I save the exercise, the program changes some of my answers. It takes answers from other gaps and puts...
Hi Henri I've just created a simple JQuiz exercise using unmodified source files: first question multiple choice second question text third question hybrid ...
Hi Are you using the Windows edition or the Java edition of Hot Potatoes? Either way, what version of Hot Potatoes are you using? Can you provide any more...
Hi there, We've had no other reports of anything like this. Could you send us the URL of an exercise demonstrating the problem, and explain what changes have...
Hi all I've just released Java Hot Potatoes 6.0.2.6. In this release, I've set the menu bar to appear at the top of the screen (normal Mac behaviour) rather...
That's very helpful information, Stewart. Thank you very much for your time in doing that. I'll have to comb through my mods . . . after I switch over to the...
I note that no support is offered for CGI (whatever that means)for non- commercial users, except a brief message. Does anyone know of a strand that goes into...
Hi there, There are several online tutorials listed on this page: <http://hotpot.uvic.ca/tutorials6.htm#EnglishTutorials> which address collecting or storing...
