Re: [phpesp-dev] A question/request for help about modifying a question type

[Matthew G. <mat...@gm...>]

I think a request for a question type similar to what you've requested is
already a RFE:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=3Ddetail&aid=3D934740&group_i=
d=3D8956&atid=3D358956

Unless someone submits a patch, I wasn't planning on expanding question
types for a while.  I would like to get the GUI and survey rendering up to
current standards and looking nice.  Which leads to your second question.  =
I
don't think it is possible to change the layout as you've requested without
a good bit of code changes.  Once tables are removed from the survey layout
and we use pure CSS, you should be able to accomplish what you want just
with a CSS template.
