Setting the correct answer and compare with response

Hi Paul,

The problem is my correct answer attribute is also has to be filename of
the stimulus. Correct answer changes every time according to the presented
stimulus, and stimuli are presented randomly from a list. So I had to set
the correct answer attribute as "image1.bmp'. I guess I need an inline
script to convert the responses from keyboard presses (i.e. pressing 1 on
keyboard means selecting image1, pressing 2 on keyboard means selecting
image2 & "image1.bmp"=image1) So that I can compare and calculate accuracy.
However I don't know how to write one.
