I hope your problem is solved now.
This is exactly what i had meant. I never realized that u wouldn't know how to insert the html code for a picture. i thought you are inserting the code correctly but the folder in which it is located is not publicly accessible etc.

Actually this is the best way of doing this also because you can then do the following:

1. lets say you have a folder called www.yoursite.com/images
2. put ALL your images there in various folders. eg. test1, physics1, chemistry1 etc
3. Create your tests offline in textpad/notepad. A question would look like this:
   1. which is the correct diagram for water's behaviour with change in temp?<img src="http://www.yoursite.com/images/physics1/q1.jpg"> { ~A ~B ~C ~D =E}

This way you can create a whole quiz offline, successfully inserting the images also.

Security: since images is a public folder, the students(who are pretty smart) may right click on images during quiz and locate the url of pictures. so do the following:
1. server: set server settings not to allow raw listing of directory contents
2. always show quiz in secure window where right click is disabled
3. enable hot-link protection on your site

This will provide some security, though nothing is fool proof.

use cloze or short answer or fill in the blanks
what's the issue?
you want several answers in a single question?
how will you grade then?
create short answer questions for each table and then use the feature of matching them.....

orReload for that matter 

Hi Joseph

This feature is IMPORTANT
All countries and users do not have full-time net access.
Moreover, it is desirable to squeeze into a warm corner with a blanket, a cuppa coffee, ur laptop (Your), and type away a bunch of questions....
Then go in the morning to over-write the current ones on your server
The feature's desirability is not questionable; purveyance is.

i have gone thru a weboage called http://www-writing.berkeley.edu/tesl-ej/ej26/m2.html

it analysed the free OLMSs. (it's outdated now)
I also analysed a few Not listed there.

I run both atutor and moodle and quiztest(Cgi-script) and testcommander(asp & php)

I also use quizstar.4teachers.org and school.discovery.com

By far Moodle is the BEST

Never used webct or Blackboard or D2L coz i don't wanna pay. But if you can pay that kindda money, explore them, too.

I suggest staying with moodle coz it has a certain ease of use about itself which grows on you. I find other ones a bit irritating now.

Rest ....depends on ur urgency.
