I Need Suggestions Please!!

[Salvatore]

I am in a bind here...I have been racking my brain to find a way to accomplish the following:

I have a basic quiz that I have designed in HTML...now my challenge is that I have several employees from various departments within my Call Center.

Ideally I would like to inform the user to go to a specific Intranet page where they will either need to log in or the page can recognize a particular cookie for that user...then it will send them to the appropriate quiz...

Now here is where it get's tricky...The quiz has a timer so if the user does not complete the quiz in time it bounces them out... I need to block this same user from coming back to the same quize for at least 10 days...this way they can not keep coming back in & out to get the right answers...

So in summary let's say I have 5 different department quiz's, and depending on either the users login or cookie it will direct the user to a quize, which they will be timed, and after they complete the quize or are timed out they will be blocked from coming back to it.

I WILL ACCEPT ANY & ALL SUGGESTIONS TO ACCOMPLISH THIS!!!

lets say the cookie contains this:
ID="12345"
then add this onto the end when the timer runs out
banned="dd/mm/yy"
so it is:
ID="12345"banned="dd/mm/yy"
making dd/mm/yy the date ten days from now.
Then when they try to lo on, see if this time has ben reached, else throw them out.

Acidic,

I really appreciate your suggestions...they are very helpful...my problem is knowledge of javascript and HTML is not as good as I would like it to be...

Anyway..I like that idea...now I still need to work out this cookie problem...I implemented your previous idea from another thread I submitted..and I could not get it to work...

I need the user , once they enter a specific page to place a unique id into a cookie so that I can do what you stated in this thread to ban them...

If you can still assit me, I would be in your debt...
