Problem with final appearance of cloze questions

Hi,

Is there a way to show in separate lines of text a series of MCV questions in the cloze-type questions? The first question looks fine, but the next appears on the table of choices of the previous one. I tried to use < br /> but didn't work

Thanks

Luis

You can try placing the questions in div tags or in a table. smile

Sorry, what is a div tag?

The html div tag. So suppose you have the following items in the cloze question:

This is the {:MULTICHOICE:=first#~second#~third#} item.

This is the {:MULTICHOICE:first#~=second#~third#} item.

In text mode (click ed_html.gif) you can enclose each line in a div tag:

<div>This is the {:MULTICHOICE:=first#~second#~third#} item.</div>

<div>This is the {:MULTICHOICE:first#~=second#~third#} item.</div>

and that should do the trick (although I'm not entirely sure what the problem is; a screenshot may help). smile

Thank you very much for your response. Div tags didn't work, but placing the items in a table did the trick. Anyway, please find attached a screenshot so you can get a better idea of the problem.

You're welcome. The div tags should work if entered in html source mode (ed_html.gif button in the editor's toolbar). The appearance of the text "<div>" in the screenshot seems to indicate that the tags were not entered in html mode. But if the table works for you it's good enough for me. smile

Hi Luis,
I think your problem is related to the tracker item : Improving multichoice display in multinaswers (Cloze) question type in MDL-14763.

Thanks for your response, Joseph. My problem is that I'm a novice in HTML lenguage, and using tags in the HTML editor is not working for me, in spite of activating the corresponding button (<>). Any suggestions?

Any way, as far as I understood, the patch you posted in the thread solves the problem that questions following a vertical or horizontal multiple choice question are displayed to the right of the table instead of below. How do I place the patch?
