Add function and link for revise questionnaires with reload precedent…

[merluxx]

Hello, some users have asked me for a way to review a completed and submitted questionnaire without losing the answers already submitted. I've therefore slightly modified the quexf code for this purpose and I'd like to know what you think of it and if it would be possible to integrate it into future releases if you think it's a good idea?

Sincerely.

thanks for this request @merluxx .

Can you please explain to me how you use it in practice? It appears to alter the session information but from the administrative page. Do you click the revise button as the administrator, then go to the verification page as the administrator and complete the form?

[merluxx]

Yes, that's exactly it. I had to add the session_reset; otherwise, after reviewing the first quiz, subsequent quizzes would display the pages from the first one.

Thank you! I appreciate your efforts in sharing this patch. As it is, I won't include it in queXF as it relies on a side effect (setting the session from the administrator page) that could cause a data conflict if misused or misunderstood.

I don't expect you to re-write the patch if it works fine for you, but ideally instead of setting the session from the administrator page, it would set a flag on the form so that the next time the administrator accesses the form it will load the previous responses (similar to the reverify function, except instead of throwing away the first verification attempt, it keeps it).

I don't have much time to work on this at the moment myself but I'll leave this issue open to remind me / anyone else who wants to contribute.

Thanks for the update @merluxx .

I can see that you are reassigning the formboxverifychar and formboxverifytext data from the first verifier to vid = 0 when moving to review.

I think the original vid = 0 records for that form probably need to be deleted first, then the reassignment is done.

This should be sufficient then to have the form in the state that the original verifier left it, without needing to use the session reload function at all, as records assigned to vid = 0 are automatically loaded as part of the verification process.

Also when using the T_() translation function please try to avoid putting in variables partway (eg T("test" . $something . " something else") as it won't be able to be translated later, it should just be a fixed string.
