[I] Reposted Thread- JS Quiz numbering issue and including text boxes
Hi Everyone
1st thanks to all for checkin out my question
I am relatively new to JavaScript so I apologise to all if my wording is wrong.
Basically I have designed a quiz with a little help and at the moment it works great for radio buttons and combo boxes.
My main problem is with the numbering as some questions have multiple parts ie a,b,c and I want them to be numbered accordingly. As you can see from my code the seperate parts of the one question actually get numbered as different questions. How can I make the numbering number parts differently ie question 2) a) and then b) instead of 2 and then 3??
Additionally I would also like to use text boxes but can’t figure out how to code in the correct JS for Question type Text Box??
Here is my Html code and my script

There may be some code that is not required, so ignore that if it is present. If you want to know anything else or if I am unclear please ask a question. I would really like to solve this for my quiz. Thanks very much for any help anyone can give me. Like I said I am new to Javascript so you would be doing me a great favour by helping me out
Thank you
