    v2006.1.19, 11-30-05

    Fixed a fairly rare issue with thought listings. If greater than 13 thoughts were being listed and the questionnaire containing the item was being timed at the experiment level and a responses.xls file was being used and time ran out then the item wouldn't end properly--you'd go into a feedback/prompt loop or an error would be generated. This is fixed.

    Added internal site license for University of Washington Business School.

    2006.1.20

    Until now, when inserting a variable into subsequent question wording (e.g., Hello <name>, welcome to the experiment!>, the variable being used had to be all lowercase. From 2006.1.20 on, this is no longer a constraint--any combination of upper and lower will work.

    Fixed spacebar conflict that could occur between MediaLab and HTML items using ASP or other script, or that use the POST or GET methods of data submission.

    In the user guide, it says you can use skip patterns with scale responses but NOT with multiple response items. This has always been intentional because a subject could select multiple responses and MediaLab would not know which skip value to use.

    There was a bug though (which we just found out about) which would allow you to use skip patterns with multiple response items if and only if the subject was using the keyboard (mouse would not work) and the option with the skip value was the last one chosen. Instead of eliminating this bug, it gave us the idea--why not allow skip patterns for multiple response items so long as only ONE response has been chosen.

    So you can do this now--and it will work for both keyboard and mouse. To be super safe, you can combine this with the (r1-1) parameter in order to disallow multiple options from being selected, e.g., (p5,r1-1) for a 5-item multiple response question where one--and only one--option must be selected. That will consequently guarantee your skips to work.
