Best Practice on surveys and wizards

HI all,

Where can I find some best practices on web surveys and also wizards. Things
like maximum questions per page, lenght of questions, type of answers given,
Ie interativty like dropdowns and chackbox, and radiobuttons.
I have a possible client, but his original survey has like 100 questions per
page. I want to be able to show him whether or not this is the best way of
doing things. Do users like scrolling through hundreds of questions, or do
they prefer a few questions per page, and then navigate those pages.

THis site will be done in c# and possible be a DNN site

Thanks
Robert

Hi,

This is a C# NG so "usually" we tend to respond question regarding the
C# language, your question is not related to C# you might want to find
a more appropiated NG

Hello, I am just wondering, what is the current best common practice for online surveys: 1. allowing users to vote any number of times 2. allowing one vote per IP 3. requiring email address verification (seems overly complex for a survey) 4. setting a cookie on the web browser and allowing no more voting until the user closes the web browser

Simple question... which is better to use for defining font sizes and why? px and em seem to be the leading candidates. I know what the general answer is going to be, but I'm hoping to ultimately get some good real world examples. Fire away! :) Regards, Peter Foti

http://www.JavascriptToolbox.com/bestpractices/ I started writing this up as a guide for some people who were looking for general tips on how to do things the 'right way' with Javascript. Their code was littered with document.all and eval, for example, and I wanted to create a practical list of best practices that they could easily put to use. The above URL is version 1.0 (draft) that resulted. IMO, it is not a replacement for the FAQ,...

I want to know the most efficient approaches to fill an object's properties from a database using the tools in VS.NET and/or any magic that's a part of ASP.NET, ADO.NET, and related tech. I suspect there are tools or wizards or abstractions to make this process easier, and I'm hoping some of the more expereienced hands around here can tell me what those are. I have a reasonably strong background building classes in classic ASP. The...

I have an app that retrieves data from an Access database. At the moment I have the SQL string as a Const in my app. I understand this is not best practice. I don't want the user to have access to read or modify this string so I don't want to store it in an INI / Text file or in registery. Can someone please tell me the best practice for this. Thanks Mike

Hi, I am not a programmer and in the past have only created very simple, flat file databases. Although I'm a newbie, I think I could probably figure out basic Boolean logic and financial functions. The database I want to create would import quite a few records -- maybe as many as 100,000. I would be importing them from an Internet source (comma delimited) to my desktop so that I could manipulate the data how I wanted. Despite the...

I'm wondering what the best practice is for creating a WinApp "wizard" that contains 4 or 5 "steps". Options so far are 1) Single WinForm making various controls visible/non visible at the different steps(although that may get cluttered in the design environment) 2) Create multiple WinForms (don't really know any pros or cons of this method) 3) Use a tabbed page (although I don't want to see any tabs)

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
