click a button before timeout allows for skipping

    click a button before timeout allows for skipping

    Hi, I run into a problem.
    I have a htm in custom item. I have a button on the htm file. If don't click the button within 5 sec, participants go to next item which is an instruction item shows "MISS". If they click the button within 5 sec, I want them skip the "Miss" instruction and go to the third item which is another htm custom item with another button.

    I design the htm file with MS sharepoint. The button is in a "submit" status.

    my questionnaire is ordered with the flowing 3 items:
    position Name item type
    1.00 test1 custom (I specify in the skipto filed with "test2")
    2.00 miss instructions
    3.00 test2 custom


    Now my problem is: If I click the button in test1 htm, I still go to "Miss" rather than test2. Why?

    will run this experiment in days, so please help me asap, thx!

    Hi, all
    Can anybody help me?
    Please allow me to clarify the problem I am facing.

    I want to show subjects two picture: A and B.
    A is the correct answer and B is wrong.
    I give subjects limited time to answer the question (e.g. 5 seconds)

    I want:
    1) if participant click picture A(the correct one), go to next question
    2) if participant click picture B(the wrong one), show a page with "WRONG" in the center, then go to next question
    3) if participant doesn't click any picture within 5 seconds, show a page with "MISS", then go to next question

    Can anyone tell me how to realize this?
    I have to run this experiment soon, so thanks a lot if you can help me.
