Hidden Fields  (instructions for staff in the San Mateo Community College District)

 

hidden fields

There are two hidden fields next to the "send" button.

Name: to    Value: (your email address (where this form will be directed to)

Name: redirect    Value: (the URL you want the user to be redirected to after submitting)

 

Checkbox Naming Options

In the survey above, each checkbox above is named with a number q1a, q1b, q1c; q2a, q2b q2c, etc.

The responses in your email will look like:

hidden=Lesson1_assign1 (insert a hidden field so that you know which lesson has been sent to you)

name=Jane Doe

email=doej@hotmail.net

q1a=comprehension of the notes on your web page

q1b= response to a classmate's work

q1c= preferences in joining chat or study groups

These would be the student's selections for #1
Note that q1a, q1b, q1c tells you nothing about what the question/prompt on the webpage is.

Tip:

Rename the checkboxes.

Advantage: the sumission is faster to correct

Disadvantage: a clever student could view the page source in the browser
