displaying test name

Hello Booboo.When you create a Test, in the Result tab in the Test Properties, the results submission section allows you to Submit Test to CGI program or email results of test in XML format. Additionally, you can prompt the student for their name.I have not been able to find this variable, so what I have done, is to create a entry page to my test that has a entry field (found under Form Object). You create an Entry Field under Forms and there you get an associated variable name (you apply your own name, such as "a_Stdname_0001") that allows you to capture student names. Check the option, "Retain value between sessions".You can also add a "Start Test" button that has an action associated with it that says, on click send to Test page, if the variable a_Stdname_0001, is greater than no value. (That means, don't enter any value in the box). Here you are forcing the student to type something in the box. (A level of trust that they will enter their own name!) Then in your test, refer to that variable name by first creating a text box called stdnametxt, then add an Action to that text box.Action Properties:Action Name: StudentnameOn: ShowAction: Change ContentsTarget: stdnametxtNew Contents: a_Stdname_0001This is one option.Would be great if others have other options to share or can modify the above solution.Try the above and let us know how it went.Regards,Edited By: bruman on 2007-5-25 12:41:42
