As a "newbie", I am seeking help to create an on line questionnaire. Once the questionnaire is complete, the respondent can receive an immediate response or analysis.
I have seen this work; for example, Dr. Weil's "Vitamin Advisor" <http://www.mycustompak.com/cgi-bin/cns. ... drweil.jsp>.
There must be a way to do this; however, I see rare instances of it.
Does anyone have suggestions on resources?
Thanks for your response.

hmm..., you don't want much do ya. that kind of script requires an enormous amount of code. as a newbie" i recommend that you start with something a bit more simple. a script like the one you are talking about would be a great project to pick at but i don't suggest that it be your first cause igaureente that you will get frustrated.

Questionnaire
Thanks for your response.
Your comment confirms my suspicion; however, I still want this to work...it may be a massive amount of work...but, there must be a starting point where I may learn to create the simplist questionnaire to the more complicated (a typical process of learning).
Given my commitment, where would you suggest I start with tutorials, books, forum?
You are kind to respond, and I am grateful.

well, first realize the kind of processing that will be required: if the user selects option A then say this, option B say this, if he selects this append that. essentially a lot of conditional statements.
while i don't know where you might find this I would suggest trying to find the source code for one of those "how much geek are you?" tests and just play around with it.
