Hi Philip, I tired the demo and clicked “Take Survey” in both Safari & FF but it goes to this URL:

http://theodin.co.uk/tools/tutorials/jqueryTutorial/plugins/surveyable/?#

No pop-up block warnings. No next screen. Just the original white page with the black box. Is the demo perhaps broken or do I need to turn something on/off in Safari and FF for this to work?

I know Steve posted something similar earlier but never replied back so I am not sure my issue is similar.

I saw a really cool survey on a website recently and checked the code (page source) and saw it was jQuery based so am looking for the script. Maybe its yours? ; )

Thanks
William

Hi,

Correct me if i’m wrong but shouldn’t the code be:

if ( !$.cookie(defaults.name) ) {
$(this).css(“display”,”block”);
} else {
$(this).css(“display”,”none”);
}

not

if ( !$.cookie(defaults.name) ) {
$(this).parent().css(“display”,”block”);
} else {
$(this).parent().css(“display”,”none”);
}

Using parent() hides the parent of the Selector (In your demo, the body). Good work though.

@pol, I named the plugin after what I perceived its benefits to be. That said, if you feel I could make it clearer and improve upon it by name or functionality I am happy to listen

hello,

people should read the post before commenting yet the title of (“survey plugin”) may be misleading…

to me, it’s a great script for some situations, thanks for sharing.

This feature suggested by @Chris “- Ability to set frequency of invitations, e.g. 1 in 10, 1 in 20, etc chance of invite” would be awesome.
