Looking For XML Quiz Tutorials in Corona

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

In Flash CS5.5 I’ve created an app that has 15 categories of quizzes. The user selects one, it loads the external .swf, .as and .xml files for that quiz, the questions and 4 multiple choice answers are always randomized in order, it keeps track of your score and at the end you get a certificate where you can enter your name and email a screenshot of your certificate.

I see that Corona supports xml parsing and now screen captures that can be emailed so I figured there has to be a way to re-create my app in Corona so I can move away from Flash.

The only problem is I can’t seem to tailor any xml tutorials I find to meet what I need (load questions externally and randomize the order of questions and answers). If anyone knows of a good tutorial or even if someone is willing to show me how to get started it’d be greatly appreciated. [import]uid: 98804 topic_id: 20031 reply_id: 320031[/import]

Hi,

we have just spent a month creating a quiz framework. it does not read code from an external XML file, but a local content.lua file . This is a good idea, though i would convert the xml into JSON as it easier to manipulate.

I am willing to help you with some direction and share lessons we have learnt. I can be contacted at altafr@redbytes.in [import]uid: 55009 topic_id: 20031 reply_id: 78247[/import]
