Major Awesomely-Cool Idea

What if we did something similar to "The Geek Test," except "The Otaku Test" or something...

And link it to a Bible Study or something. This wouldn't be too hard codewise, needing a simple MySQL Database and PHP Script.

It would be fun to do, and the CAA admins wouldn't have to do a thing (unless they wanted to help, of course) It would be hosted off-CAA on another server.
No code help really needed, but I would need help with quiz ideas, and the actual questions.

To CAA Admins/Mods:
If this belongs on another forum, please drag it over.

Moved to the projects forum...

Nice idea though, and for something this simple I don't even think you'd need a database... could just hardcode it...

I suppose a database would be neater though :dance:

Yeah, good point...but for a specific results thing, like admin seeing how many people checked x box, how many people got 30% or such, just for generalization.

And I like coding databases as well ;)

But hardcoding is good.

A. PHP is a programming language. For example, this forum uses PHP. It is a language parsed on the server, leaving the client (you) with only the HTML.
B. It'd be all kinds of stuff, ranging from diagnosing spiritual health to over-addiction to how klutzy you are. It's really open to suggestion, and there would DEFINATELY be more than one quiz.

...The code is going well ^_^ it now produces a list of all the tests, as indicated by a table. I love PHP For loops.

er.... looks like something's not 100% on the output code.

Attached is a cropped screen capture (admins, feel free to delete if I'm wasting server space :grin: )

Yeah, it's just a tad bit screwed up. I was tearing my hair out on this one. Don't worry, I'm still working on it.
