I didn't notice this soon enough, and now I'd rather not re-ent= er all 60 questions. I have sent feedback that requiring JavaScript to be able to submit survey is strange. Survs.com came recommended here on this mailing list. I have chosen it over editing old www.survey.net.nz because it had "other (please specif= y)" for both single answer (radio button) and multiple choice (checkbox) question; later also because of the "matrix" questions. I didn't realiz= e that it requires JavaScript to submit... perhaps this would get correct= ed before starting point for Git User's Survey 2008 (1 September, or later= ). > Also, I still do not get a succesful message after submitting, but th= at > may be related to the channel (test), if you have configured it like > that. Have you? ;) Yes, that depends on channel configuration, and I have forgot to add it for this channel. Thanks again for checking this survey, and for your comments. BTW. here is analysis of 'test' channel (note that some questions, and some possible answers, were added after starting 'test' channel): http://www.survs.com/app/4/wo/Y03N37u4Ou5p9SmoNrc5f0/0.0.33.1.1.1.1.5= =2E1.1.0.1.1.7.11.0.1.0.13.1.1 --=20 Jakub Narebski Poland
