Re: [Phptest-users] Re: add question issue

[Kathleen Ferraro]

Gladly, Brandon. Here are a couple of scenarios:

1. Added the code you suggested and entered text without uploading an 
image; got this output:

Array ( [skill_level] => English [question] => What is my favorite color 
[answer] => Blue [alt_1] => Red [alt_2] => Yellow [alt_3] => Violet 
[additional_notes] => [required] => 1 [weight] => 1 [MAX_FILE_SIZE] => 
1000000 [description] => [submit] => Submit! ) Array ( )


2. Removed the code and tried to load file without an image. Got error 
the error message

The following error(s) were encountered processing your submission:
Unknown file upload error


3. Reloaded page to enter text again. Noticed that when I reloaded the 
page (shift reload), the text I had entered cleared but the error 
message that had displayed was still there.

3. Quit and logged in again

4. Tried to enter text without image again and got:
Array ( [skill_level] => English [question] => What time is it? 
[answer] => now [alt_1] => later [alt_2] => sooner [alt_3] => better 
[additional_notes] => [required] => 1 [weight] => 1 [MAX_FILE_SIZE] => 
1000000 [description] => [submit] => Submit! ) Array ( )



5. Entered text with an image and got:
Array ( [skill_level] => English [question] => What are you doing? 
[answer] => nothing [alt_1] => everything [alt_2] => something 
[alt_3] => don\'t know [additional_notes] => [required] => 1 [weight] => 
1 [MAX_FILE_SIZE] => 1000000 [description] => [submit] => Submit! ) 
Array ( [image] => Array ( [name] => left_bg.gif [type] => image/gif 
[tmp_name] => /var/tmp/phpYKaanz [error] => 0 [size] => 2436 ) )


Let me know what you think. I am happy to do more testing. This is going 
to be a very useful program for me.

Best,

Kathie

I am pleased that history recognizes the first to invent something, but
I am more concerned with the first person to make it work.
