You can do it with php and if you want you also could add an javascript real time, so you want to know how it works ? Well, one way is to make it with sessions, say you have 10 pages of questions.. so you start a sessions and set the start time when the user clicks start and always check the value and set the finish time and get the period of the time. Simple maths

Also, you save the answers in the super global $_SERVER; and check them after the test is done or whatever. There might be different ways to do it, saving to a database or files as temporary data.. I would use sessions, but if the user does not have cookies enabled - he might have some problems..

As I mentioned in database part is there anyone got this script?Is there anyone possible to write this script?
I want to explain my problem again.I made a php-nuke website.I have so many users.My users wanted a online timed(counts from 20 seconds)test(multiple choices).(like who wants to be a millionaire).I made the login and register system.But I have problems in test page stage.Users will be send questions to our database.And admin will control these questions.He will save it to our database or delete it from our database.And users will be race in a day only five times.And also they must be answer the questions in 20 seconds.There will be shown a counter in the question page that counts from 20 second.Also unregistered users can not be reach the test page by anyway.Or if they try this the page must be redirect him to register page.Only registered users can answer these questions.I think it will be possible by Session_start() and session_register and session_destroy codes or by setcookie.I have little time to this because of my university education.But I think you will help me.I search all internet pages but I couldn't find any useful scripts about this online timed test.But I will have more time in the summer holiday.Is it impossible?I think impossible is nothing!Can we put time script by javascript?But how can we connect it with our database?I mean that out of time there will be a page shown that echo like this "Sorry you answered false.Please restart our test...." or answered in 20 seconds "Congratulations.Please click to next question".
Also istatistics of other users must be shown in the page.Also after all true answers the users score must be increase.And after all wrongs the score must be decrease.(I did all of this with Delphi but i can not put it on my website.)
So,I wait your ideas or helps or scripts.

Hi, i just start this project in my spare time i have today, you can see it Here thanks to astahost.com.

It is not finished yet, but for a start is ok. First of all, you must register to access the trivia script, so, when you click in the above link you access the registration process, complete the form and if the data is ok the script will send you your access data to the email you give. This email includes an activation link that you must click to activate your account and after that you can login, if you dont do it you cannot access the trivia script.

The trivia script will present user-defined trivia questions along with choices and determine whether or not the visitor entered the correct answer. Features randomized question and choice order along with 100% templates. All the question, choices and answers are stored in a simple text file.

So, as you can see, this is not the best solution, in the next version i will use a database to store the questions, choices and answers as other information, and also implement the 20 seconds counter.

Ok, and a test how many question should include???? to be practical i will include only 5 questions for test, and because it will be a test, i will not do any type of validation.

Well, as i promised in my last post yesterday here is the code of the script, it is not complete yet because i will make some improvements but the basical functioning is complete. Today is my happybirthday so i only post the database tables and the config files:

DB Tables Files:

CREATE TABLE registration (
id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
name varchar(45) NOT NULL default '',
email varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
nickname varchar(15) NOT NULL default '',
password varchar(32) NOT NULL default '',
is_activated char(1) NOT NULL default '0',
activation_code varchar(25) NOT NULL default '',
regdate date NOT NULL default '0000-00-00',
last_login date NOT NULL default '0000-00-00',
test_day tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
points int(10) NOT NULL default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (id)
) TYPE=MyISAM COMMENT='Trivia Users';

CREATE TABLE question (
id smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
question varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (id)
) TYPE=MyISAM COMMENT='Trivia Questions';

CREATE TABLE answer (
idq smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL default '1',
id tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
answer varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
correct tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (idq,id)
) TYPE=MyISAM COMMENT='Trivia Answers' ;

config.php: general configuration file

CODE

<?php
$db_user = "your_db_user";
$db_password = "your_db_userpassword";
$database = "your_db";
$server = "localhost";
$questions_test=5; // number of questions per test
$total_tests=5; // number of tests per day

// connect to server
mysql_connect($server, $db_user, $db_password) or die ("Could not connect to the Server!" . mysql_errno() . ": " . mysql_error() );

// select database
mysql_select_db($database) or die ("Could not select the Database!" . mysql_errno() . ": " . mysql_error() );
include('check_login.php');
?>

check_login.php: user checking configuration file

CODE

<?php
/* check login script, included in config.php. */
session_start();

if (!isset($_SESSION['nickname']) || !isset($_SESSION['password'])) {
    $logged_in = 0;
    return;
} else {
    // remember, $_SESSION['password'] will be encrypted.
    if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
        $_SESSION['nickname'] = addslashes($_SESSION['nickname']);
    }

    // addslashes to session username before using in a query.
    $pass=mysql_query("SELECT password FROM registration WHERE nickname='".$_SESSION['nickname']."'");

    if(mysql_num_rows($pass) != 1) {
        $logged_in = 0;
        unset($_SESSION['nickname']);
        unset($_SESSION['password']);
        // kill incorrect session variables.
      }

    $db_pass = mysql_fetch_array($pass);

    // now we have encrypted pass from DB in
    //$db_pass['password'], stripslashes() just incase:

    $db_pass['password'] = stripslashes($db_pass['password']);
    $_SESSION['password'] = stripslashes($_SESSION['password']);

    //compare:

    if($_SESSION['password'] == $db_pass['password']) {
        // valid password for username
        $logged_in = 1; // they have correct info in session variables.
    } else {
        $logged_in = 0;
        unset($_SESSION['nickname']);
        unset($_SESSION['password']);
        // kill incorrect session variables.
    }
}
// clean up
unset($db_pass['password']);
$_SESSION['nickname'] = stripslashes($_SESSION['nickname']);
?>

To be continued...

So your trivia questionsmust be answered within 20 sec.

At page YY:
Ask question + register start time
-Make sure a JS refreshes after 20 sec to page XX.
-And make sure answers are posted to page XX.

Page XX checks for an correct answer AND checks if the registered start time in php is within the 20 sec (JS can be easily disabled and needs double checking)

Thanks, i do something like that with no goods results in the timer, so i follow your advice and redirect to XX page and THAT'S IT .

I will post all the code tomorrow.
