Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention creates a questionnaire using the Web, compiles responses to the questionnaire,
The present invention relates to a method for generating an Internet interactive questionnaire form and compiling results that can be disclosed. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a questionnaire has been conducted using paper, so that each time, a questionnaire style, that is, a question form, how many respondents can be expected, etc. We had to design and prepare. In a paper questionnaire, of course, it was impossible to use an interactive format, and totaling the answers required a lot of work. Since the content of the questionnaire cannot be replaced, the questionnaire once created will be discarded after completion or saved for evidence. In addition, it is difficult to publish the response results, and only the results will be published in another way. As described above, in the conventional questionnaire, each time it is necessary to design a questionnaire format, a question format, and the like, it is also difficult to manage paper after tabulation. The question forms include (a) a one-line answer format called text (small), (b) a text answer format called (text) (large), (c) an alternative choice format called a drop-down list, D) There is a format such as a multiple response format called a check box. Therefore, in the past, it was difficult for amateurs to create questionnaires,
Unless you were an expert in surveying and creating surveys for each respondent, you could not go smoothly. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve these conventional problems, to automatically create questionnaire items interactively, to easily replace the contents of the questionnaire, and to easily compile and disclose the questionnaire. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for generating an Internet interactive questionnaire form and summing up results. [0005] In order to achieve the above object, an Internet interactive questionnaire form generation and result totaling method according to the present invention comprises inputting an administrator ID and password and receiving administrator authentication. If passed, a menu screen is displayed, a questionnaire form editing screen is displayed by selecting from the menu screen, and a questionnaire form name is first input to the questionnaire form editing screen, and then, Enter the question format, then enter the content of the question, and also enter the content of the option items.If there are multiple questions, go back and enter the next question format, repeat the process below, and finish editing If so, a preview screen is displayed, and the contents of the edited questionnaire form are transmitted to the Web server. [0006] A questionnaire form is generated, and
b After transmitting to the server, after a predetermined period, operate the questionnaire tally button to display the questionnaire tally screen, refer to the list of the questionnaire tally screen, and click the questionnaire name of the file to be downloaded, Download the desired file contents.
