capturing actual mouse-click responses

[Leisha Wharfield]

Hi, John,

We always include some questionnaire elements in our experiments, if 
only for demographics. I haven't used radio buttons, but I've used 
clickable scales and number entry with verification (for subjects to 
enter their age, for example). I also included a race/ethnicity question 
that allows respondents to choose none, any, or all of the listed 
categories and verify that those are the categories they meant to choose.

Other people in this maillist are far better programmers than I am, but 
I am willing to share whatever I have if it will help.
