Can This be done?

[Andrew S.]

I'm not sure if this can be done whit HTML but here I go:

I would like to create a set of questions let say 10 so someone can compare
an item from one company compared to another by clicking on the 1st company
with a yes or no, then the 2th company yes or no and then the third yes or
no for each of the ten questions.(this I know I can do no problem the next
part is what I am unsure of)

I would then like the total for each yes and no calculated at the bottom of
the column so a person can compare the total results.

Thanks in advance

Nope, for this you need a client side scripting language (Javascript) or
a server side scripting language (PHP, ASP), if you just want the
results immediately there then you would need to go for a client side
language

Thanks Cameron,

I wasn't sure if there was something used with a form that could do it or
not?
Since I know nothing about PHP or ASP I will have to keep searching.

Thanks

Hey Cameron - there's not a lot of sense in keeping searching. One of these
server side languages is the only answer. I'd suggest php if you have no
other experience. It's very easy to learn and I'm sure you could learn
enough of php in one day to create your survey. Ask you host if you're
connecting to a MySql or Postgres database - it's usually one or the other.
However - you could also do this using a flat file database.
