One last try with emailing results

Today I handed over all of the files for this project to Matt, but before doing so I made a couple of corrections (that Roxanne had pointed out) and tried to get the email results function to work one last time.

I added the email capability to the Boolean module by going to Quiz Preferences and inserting a slide that displays the results, then posted this version of the module on my iSchool webspace. After I'd answered the questions and clicked "Submit" on the results slide, my preferred email application (gmail) opened up and I was able to send a message. The email arrived OK, but had nothing in the body or as an attachment.

So I went back to Quiz Preferences > Reporting. I had initially selected the options to send as an attachment and send quiz results only, so I switched to have it send quiz results and slide views... and still got an email with nothing in it.

My next try was to change the options to send in the body of the email (and quiz results and slide views). This time I got a message from google saying, "Request: URI Too Large. The requested URL/mail/... is too large to process."

My final test - sending the only the quiz results in the body of the email. And again I got the "too large" message.

In the mean time, I had tried running through the module on the PC in TIS (using IE instead of Firefox) and would get the following message, "This form is being submitted using e-mail. Submitting this form will reveal your e-mail address to the recipient, and will send the form data without encrypting it for privacy. You may continue or cancel this submission." When I clicked OK, nothing happened, so it seems that it wasn't able to connect with any email application.

So, all in all, I had no luck in trying to get the email reporting to work.
