LimeSurvey

There's absolutely nothing wrong with a standard HTML checkbox. It's simple and functional and everyone knows how it works, but sometimes you want just a little bit more.

The Slider layout for a question is one of the nicer features of LimeSurvey, but as a question type it is often ignored or forgotten because it is really an advanced setting of what seems a completely different question type - the multiple numerical question type.

There is no inbuilt way to use conditions to randomly hide or show questions, so what can you do if you want to show different participants different questions?

Here's a method that will allow you to randomly display different questions to different participants.

In summary, you create a hidden question that randomly generates a number. You then hide or display later questions based on the randomly generated number.

LimeSurvey 1.91+ includes a new feature to record the time spent on each question during a survey, but prior to release 1.91 this was not built-in. If you are stuck with an older installation however it is possible to record question timing with some modifications.

The FCKEditor "What you see is what you get" (WYSIWYG) html editor is a fantastic tool and really improves the usability of LimeSurvey when it comes to changing the look and feel of your question text. But there are times when I really want or need to get into the HTML code for the layout. Actually, these times are extremely common.
