Create Quiz That Saves Results

In the questions editor, before creating the HTML quiz, open the Quiz Properties, and in the sheet 'Saving', click on the item 'Save quiz result on web server', then click on the 'Settings' button. It will show a dialog window. You should insert the following information:

·     Web server address (IP address) : it represents the Intranet/Internet address of the computer on which the Web server is installed, for example http://www.myhost.com or http://128:100:10:0. If the computer is not in a network, write: http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 or click on the checkbox: 'Use local host as web server'.
·     Port number : usually, the standard port number for HTTP protocols is 80.
·     Cgi-bin directory : name of directory (the folder) of the Web Server with CGI scripts. The path name should not be absolute (for example c:files) but relative to the web server directory installation. Usually, the name 'cgi-bin' is the correct name.
·     Archive file name : name of the file created and managed by the  CGI script that contains all the results of the quizzes sent to the server. This file is saved into the directory that you have specified in the second line of the Perl script.
·     Names of scripts : In most cases, you should use the default script name (the checkbox called 'Use default CGI Perl script' should be checked). Only if you want to use the old scripts (QmakeCGI.exe and QmakeCGIQuery.exe), you should specify their name. Note that if you are using the old script names, the HTML quiz will be made to run with these scripts.
