Hello, folks.

I have a project I just started working on and I am looking for some opinions on the best approach to it, even if the approach isn't Flash/Actionscript. For the reason that I might end up using Actionscript or some other program, forgive me if I posted in the wrong thread. If I use flash, the computer I will use has Flash 8 Pro installed on it.

First off, while I am not any sort of code guru, I do have a passing knowledge of various computer languages (Javascript, VBA, HTML, blah blah blah).

Now, I have a project that is part poll/part survey. I have a batch of pictures (63 to be exact, but thats irrelevant) and for each picture, I wish to have 4 choices, preferably using radio boxes. After the user selects one, it will show the precentage of other usrs who have given each response (such as, "34% chose A, 33% chose B" and so forth. The user then can go on to the next question/survey/poll.

Adding other "features" is also something that might be done, which is where flash comes into play, with th chance of using sounds possibly.

I saw that there is a quiz template with flash 8, but I wasn't able to modify it to fit what I wanted to do. It probably was something simple for m to figure out, but I wasn't able to.

So, to get to the point of this post, 1) Anyone have any suggstions on options other then flash that might do the job as well/better in a short period of time and 2) If I use flash, anyone have any suggestions for any websites/tutorials/other refernce data that might help me along?

While I am not in a extremely major rush, the goal is for the project to be done in 2 weeks. If it isn't done, it won't be a huge deal, but just a key part of a website will be MIA.

Thanks for any advice anyone can offer.
