Hi there,

I am using this product (alpha release) on Plone 3.0 and I find it
awesomely useful. However, today I have found this bug with IE (tried
with 6 and 7) which for the survey with 10 questions lets say creates 10
separate entries(lines) in result table with only one answer per line.
It is not such a huge glitch, but it would be still nicer to have only 1
line per submitted survey.
Does anybody have an idea where does the bug come from?

greets, Dejan

Hi Dejan,

I've come across this before, and I'm assuming it's when a user tries to
fill the survey in with cookies disabled. The survey relies on the cookie to
store the id, and if it doesn't get one, then it creates a new one.

It would be better if it passed the id in the form variables, and only
create an id on the first page. That way we're not dependent on cookies, and
means that users can't jump into the survey in the middle and start filling
it in from there.

Will get round to fixing this when I have time. Unless you want to have a go
at it.

Cheers
Michael

Hi Mike,

thx for the explanation, however, I am really tight on time throughout October. So if you guys get hands on it before let us please know otherwise I can try it later on.
Merging lines with the same time stamp will work for me until then.

greets, D.
