Forum OpenACS Q&A: Branched sections in complex survey

I tried the survey package from contrib (complex survey) and found it really good, both in functionality and UI (user and admin).

The ability to define a branched section of the survey based on a previous choice is very useful, but I wonder if there is a way of looping over a given section until some criteria is met.

Looping over a section would enable for example to ask for the name and date of birth of an undefined number of a family's children.

Before diving into the code and the data model I want to be sure that this is not already possible and thank the package authors for the really good job they did.

Claudio, looping is not possible at the moment. But it is an interesting feature to take into consideration for the assessment specs.

Hi Malte,

can you tell me a bit more on the Assessment Spec? Who is working on it or is involved? How far is the process?

Greetings,
Nima
