Examination System in PHP, MySQL
 
I'm looking for a software script of some sort that is based on PHP and MySQL for an online test i plan on giving candidates at my job.
Does anyone know of any good ones or may have a script that can help me?

I'm looking for one that has timed response also so that the candidates only have a certain amount of time to pick a choice or respond to the question.

What does your question has to do with linux? This question is too generic (php script sites enough), offtopic.. i suggest a lock or removal of the post. ;)

well i'm using Suse Linux 11.1 running Apache and MySQL. I believe this is the software portion of LinuxQuestions and i'm looking for a software that runs under linux that runs under Apache and MySQL that also runs under Linux. If i am mistaken then i apologize, this so far has been the best reference to any application running under Linux that i've ever had.

Your the first to tell me that i cannot ask linux questions at Linuxquestions.org.

Qn sounds ok to me, although I think(?) teebones meant Linux SW itself eg PHP as opposed to a pre-built app on Linux, such as your enquiry.
This qn might(?) be better off in Linux-General.
Maybe a moderator will come by and advise, or you can request that via the 'Report' button.
Sorry I can't help further.

I think this is fine where it is-----and yes you CAN ask questions here at LQ. If someone gets grumpy, ignore them.

This is not a very common question, so don't expect instant answers. For me, I would be writing the thing myself-----YMMV.

thanks pixellany, i wish i had your knowledge and was able to write in PHP...i'm pretty good with MySQL administation, but i still have much to learn.

If you know of any good PHP scripts please let me know of any, thank you again.

Writing something like this for your own use is a common and very effective way to learn.

As an educator myself, I did a search a while back and found several packages and suites and such. I used Google(tm) with "php" and "mysql" in the search string along with other Q&A terms.

Enjoy,

i've looked and most of those links are either broken, or "test scripts" as in scripts that you can use to test PHP and MySQL functionality. Thanks for the help guys.
