"By the way, what RegExp syntax are you following (i.e.: PHP, Python, Perl, etc.)?"

It's basically PHP syntax, plus a few home-cooked ingredients.

No harm done. Thank you for your appreciation of my work on that question type.

You can modify moodle/lib/questionlib.php, around line 300. But you must be aware that this will modify your grade scale for all of the quizzes on your Moodle site.

function get_grade_options() {
// define basic array of grades
$grades = array(
1.00,
0.90,
0.83333,

etc.

Hi Nicolas,

You are right, the contents of that 'multichoiceset_help' string is incorrect. Actually, in English, it should reflect the contents of the "old" Moodle 1.9 Help HTML file:

After an optional introduction, the respondent can choose one or more  answers.  If the chosen answers correspond exactly to the "Correct" choices defined in the question, the respondent gets 100%.  If he/she chooses any "Incorrect" choices or does not select all of the "Correct" choices, the grade is 0%.
The feedback specified for each choice is displayed next to any selected answers.
At least one choice must be marked correct for each question.  Add a "None of the above" option to handle a question where none of the other choices are correct.
This question type is unlike the multiple choice question with multiple answers because the choices do not have fractional grades.  The possible grades for a question are either 100% or 0%.

And the French translation could be copied from the "old" Moodle 1.9 Help HTML file (for which I did the French translation some time ago ; see this discussion in the French-speaking forum):

Dans ce type de question, l'étudiant peut choisir une ou plusieurs réponses. Si les choix effectués correspondent exactement aux réponses notées à 100% dans la question, il obtient un score de 100%. Si l'étudiant choisit l'une des réponses notées à 0% <em>ou</em> s'il ne choisit pas <em>toutes</em> les réponses notées à 100%", il obtient un score de 0%.
Le message de feedback correspondant à chaque choix s'affiche à droite de chaque réponse sélectionnée.
Dans ce type de question, une réponse au moins doit être avoir une note de 100%. Si aucune réponse n'est correcte, il faudra ajouter - comme réponse à 100% - une réponse intitulée par exemple "Aucune de ces réponses".
Le système de score pour cette question <em>Choix Multiple Tout-ou-rien</em> différe de celui des <em>questions à choix multiple et réponses multiples</em>, car le score <em>global</em> pour chaque réponse est soit 100% ("tout") soit 0% ("rien").

Laura,

You can attach your screen captures to a further post in this discussion, but please make them bigger, the ones you posted are so tiny as to be un-readable!

PS.- Do I understand correctly that the display problem you describe only happens in Firefox and MSIE when using Windows 7? If so I can't help you any further since I am on Windows XP. Sorry.
