How to create a self Grading Quiz Topic is solved

[rucas911]

I have helped my dad create a Joomla! 1.0.x website about fixing cars. He writes articles for some magazines and he posts what he writes. He just recently asked me how can he create a self grading quiz/test for his visitors to take. I am not sure if he wants to keep a record of the scores or just wants a kind of fun test for the visitors to take.

Anyways, I have looked around and haven't found anything that can says it can specifically do that. I was thinking some kind of Form extension such as FacileForms or something similar, but I not real sure if this is capable of doing this or not. Can anyone give me some advise on what to use and how to get started with this?

Thanks

You're best off writing your own component for this sort of thing. Just basing it on forms wouldn't really cut it as you couldn't randomly select questions.

You need to dump your questions and answers into a database and then randomly cycle through them. Not too difficult a task to achieve.
