Great Hack.
I have one suggestion,
There's a big way to cheat this Quiz system, user can Take The Quiz. And when it show up, they can remember / copy/ print all the questions out and close the browser. At that time, they have all the questions, and the system won't show that they took the quiz.
I used this hack for award prize, so ... it's a big problem for me... if it is so easy to cheat like this.
Anyway to make it, if they see it, then they can't take it again ?
Or, make it where the user close the browser then it will pop up an error like : You haven't finish the quiz, are you sure you want to quit ? ... or we will only grade what you have done
so far if you close the browser ......... ?
Well I use it for contests to but I make it so they can not see the answers to the quiz when completed. I don't want them giving all the answers away to other members.
This is what I consider a bug-fix. Y'all may consider it a mod. Either way, it changes how quizzes are scored.
Right now, if you take a quiz that has questions with multiple correct answers, it is possible for you to score higher than 100% on the entire quiz. This change fixes that.
(This is because the old version checked all the actual right answers, but didn't keep a count of the possible number of right answers)
