When going to the Surveys @ http://www.ravennuke.com/survey-1.html

Well when you dont select a option and you just press Vote, it auto takes you to the results without informing you that you didnt select a answer..

Not sure if its suppose to, but still worth to inform you about it lol

If you look inside the programs in some of these modules, and I'm thinking here particularly of surveys, downloads, and web_links, you'll find a nightmarish mess of unnecessary complexity and bad code. It's often hard to infer what the original author "was thinking" if anything. So my guess is that we are pretty much sticking to just fixing outright errors at this point and we'll have to address functional enhancements, ease of use and user interface weaknesses on a prioritized basis at a future time.

fkelly,

You are absolutely correct. We are in a fix it mode leading to release and no longer enhancing anything.

I'm not sure either, but that's what happens in other versions. The functionality may not be what was originally intended, but is isn't broken.

Yep. I've been through each of the mentioned modules with a fine tooth comb... a mess indeed. I have made only a few minor improvements to a few of them...

I made the title of this thread more meaningful as well as identified it for [FUTURE] consideration so that we can distinguish it from the others, but not consider it at this late stage in this release cycle.

Of course, if Raven disagrees, we'll charge ahead no questions asked. Wink
