Presentation of un-answered mandatory questions  
Written by kishu the 6 Mar 10 at 16:53. Related project: 2.x all. New
It's very usual to find users submitting the form with mandatory questions unanswered. Then the page gets reloaded again with a change of css to point out the such questions. The problem is when a survey page is too long with more number of questions then the user needs to scroll all along to find out what he missed. This is fine but a better alternative can be thought of.

Solution #1: Using Light Window type interface
Written by kishu the 6 Mar 10 at 16:53.
One solution is to use a light window type interface. Whenever user submits (clicks next button) the page, all unanswered questions will be popped out in a light window notifying the user that they are mandatory. This provides a easy UI and a good surveying experience. After filling these missed mandatory questions he'll be taken forward as usual.

Individual CSS for each survey  
Written by mdekker the 1 Mar 10 at 10:42. Related project: 1.x all. New
When you want to style question for an individual survey you have to manually include a css file or edit the overall template. It would be nice to have additional, surveyspecific CSS in a separate CSS file that can be edited from the survey screen instead of from the template editor.

Solution #1: Include a surveyid.css
Written by mdekker the 1 Mar 10 at 10:42.
Have the template check if a .css exists and include it when it does. (could be generated for a new survey but left blank initially)

Add an edit survey css button to the survey toolbar where one can jump to a special template editor screen where you can edit this sid.css
Would be nice if there were links in the screen to point people to the appropriate item in the wiki for help.
