Responsive Quiz Application Using PHP, MySQL, jQuery, Ajax and Twitter Bootstrap

Step 1: Create following three tables

1. users

2. categories

3. questions

 

 

using following sql queries.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `users` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `user_name` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `score` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `category_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=3 ;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `categories` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `category_name` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=5 ;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `questions` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `question_name` text NOT NULL,
  `answer1` varchar(250) NOT NULL,
  `answer2` varchar(250) NOT NULL,
  `answer3` varchar(250) NOT NULL,
  `answer4` varchar(250) NOT NULL,
  `answer` varchar(250) NOT NULL,
  `category_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=21 ;

Now add the following sample data’s in it.

INSERT INTO `categories` (`id`, `category_name`) VALUES
(1, 'Sports'),
(2, 'HTML'),
(3, 'PHP'),
(4, 'CSS');
INSERT INTO `questions` (`id`, `question_name`, `answer1`, `answer2`, `answer3`, `answer4`, `answer`, `category_id`) VALUES

Here is the sample database relational daigram of above three tables.

Step 2:

Create config.php file to keep database connection in a separte file. Also kept two utilities database related functions to prepare prepared statements and get results.

<?php
/**
 * File: config.php
 * 
 * @author: Muni
 * @site: https://smarttutorials.net/
 */
session_start();

define('BASE_PATH','http://localhost/demo_tut/nquiz/');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_NAME', 'smarttut_demo');
define('DB_USER','xyz');
define('DB_PASSWORD','mysql');

$mysqli = new mysqli(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME);

if ($mysqli->connect_errno) {
    echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . $mysqli -> connect_error;
    exit();
}

/**
 * Preparing Statement
 */
function prepareStatement($sql, $params = null)
{
    global $mysqli;
    $stmt = $mysqli->prepare($sql);
    if (!($stmt)) {
        throw new Exception("Prepare failed: (" . $mysqli->errno . ") " . $mysqli->error);
    }

    if (!empty($params) && is_array($params)) {
        $count = count($params);            
        $bindStr = str_repeat('s', $count);
        $stmt->bind_param($bindStr, ...$params);
    }

    if (!$stmt->execute()) {
        throw new Exception("Execute failed: (" . $stmt->errno . ") " . $stmt->error);
    }

    return $stmt;
}

/**
 * GetResult
 */
function getResult($stmt)
{
    if (!($res = $stmt->get_result())) {
        throw new Exception("Getting result set failed: (" . $stmt->errno . ") " . $stmt->error);
    }
    return $res;
}

Step 3:

Create index.php file and the following scripts in it, which take care user registration process.

<?php
/**
 * File: index.php
 * 
 * @author: Muni
 * @site: https://smarttutorials.net/
 */
require 'config.php';
?>
		<?php include_once 'templates/header.php' ?>
		<div class="container vh-center">
			<div class='image'>
				<img src="image/logo.png" class="img-responsive"/>
			</div>
			
			<div class="intro">
				<p class="text-center">
					Please enter your name
				</p>
				<?php if (empty($_SESSION['name'])){ ?>
				<form class="form-signin" method="post" id='signin' name="signin" action="questions.php">
					<div class="form-group">
						<input type="text" id='name' name='name' class="form-control" placeholder="Enter your Name"/>
						<span class="help-block"></span>
					</div>
					<div class="form-group">
						<select class="form-control" name="category" id="category">
							<option value="">Choose your category</option>
							<option value="1">Sports</option>
							<option value="2">HTML</option>
							<option value="3">PHP</option>
							<option value="4">CSS</option>                                
						</select>
						<span class="help-block"></span>
					</div>
					
					<br>
					<button class="btn btn-success btn-block" type="submit">
						Start Quiz!!!
					</button>
				</form>
				
				<?php }else{ ?>
					<form class="form-signin" method="post" id='signin' name="signin" action="questions.php">
						<div class="form-group">
							<select class="form-control" name="category" id="category">
								<option value="">Choose your category</option>
								<option value="1">Sports</option>
								<option value="2">HTML</option>
								<option value="3">PHP</option>
								<option value="4">CSS</option>                                
							</select>
							<span class="help-block"></span>
						</div>
						
						<br>
						<button class="btn btn-success btn-block" type="submit">
							Start Quiz!!!
						</button>
					</form>
				<?php }?>
			</div>
		</div>
		<?php include_once 'templates/footer.php' ?>
		<script src="js/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
		<script src='//cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/jquery-validation@1.19.1/dist/jquery.validate.min.js'></script>
		<script src="js/app.js"></script>
	</body>
</html>

Step 4:

Now create check_name.php file which take care unique name check in the database while user registering.

<?php
/**
 * File: check_name.php
 * 
 * @author: Muni
 * @site: https://smarttutorials.net/
 */
require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

if (isset($_POST['name']) && !empty($_POST['name'])) {
    $count = checkName($_POST['name']);
    if ($count == 0 ) {
        echo 'true';
    }else{
        echo 'false';
    }
} else {
    echo 'false';
}
exit;

Step 5:

Now create question.php and add following scripts. This is main file  of this quiz application which gets questions randomily from database for each the user. As well it take care previous and next button functionality using jQuery.

<?php
/**
 * File: questions.php
 * 
 * @author: Muni
 * @site: https://smarttutorials.net/
 */

require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

try {
    $category = '';
    if (!empty($_POST['name'])) {
        insertUserSelectedCategory($_POST);
    }
    $category = $_POST['category'];
    if (empty($_SESSION['name'])) {
        header('Location: index.php');
    } 

    $questions = getQuestions($category);
    $rows = count($questions);
} catch (Exception $e) {
    //echo '<pre>';print_r($e);echo '</pre>';exit;
}

?>
        <?php include_once 'templates/header.php' ?>
		<div class="container question vh-center">
			<div class="question-container">
				<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" id='login' method="post" action="result.php">
					<?php 
                    $i=1;
                    foreach ($questions as $key => $result) {
                    ?>                    
                    <?php if($i==1){?>         
                    <div id='question<?php echo $i;?>' class='cont'>
                        <p class='questions' id="qname<?php echo $i;?>"> <?php echo $i?>.<?php echo $result['question_name'];?></p>
                        <hr>
                        <div class="form-group">
                            <input type="radio" value="1" id='radio1_<?php echo $result['id'];?>' name='<?php echo $result['id'];?>'/>
                            <label for='radio1_<?php echo $result['id'];?>'><?php echo $result['answer1'];?></label>
                        </div>

                    </div>
					<?php } $i++;} ?>
					
				</form>
			</div>
		</div>
        <?php include_once 'templates/footer.php' ?>
		<script src="js/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
        <script src="js/app.js"></script>
	</body>
</html>

Step 6:

Finally create result.php file and add the following lines of script in it.

<?php 
require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

if (empty($_SESSION['name'])) {
    header( 'Location: index.php') ;exit;
}

if (!empty($_POST)) {
    $keys = array_keys( $_POST );
    $order = join(",", $keys );

    $results = getAnswers($order);

    updateAnsers($results['right_answer'], $_SESSION['name']);
}     
?>
        <?php include_once 'templates/header.php' ?>

                        <a href="<?php echo BASE_PATH.'logout.php';?>" class='btn btn-success'>Logout</a>

                    </div>
                </div>    
            </div>
        </div>
        <?php include_once 'templates/footer.php' ?>
        
    </body>
</html>

Step 7:

Next create logout.php file which take care user logout process as well it redirects the user to index page.

<?php
session_start();
session_destroy();
require 'config.php';
header( 'Location: '.BASE_PATH ) ;

Step 8:
Finally create app.js file, then keep the user validation logic during user registration & Quiz questions pagination logic (previous & next button logic).

$(document).ready(function() {
    if ($("#signin").validate) {
        $("#signin").validate({
            submitHandler: function(form) {
                form.submit();
            },
            rules : {
                name : {
                    required : true,
                    minlength : 3,
                    remote : {
                        url : "check_name.php",
                        type : "post",
                        data : {
                            username : function() {
                                return $("#name").val();
                            }
                        }
                    }
                },
                category:{
                    required : true
                }
            },
            messages : {
                name : {
                    required : "Please enter your name",
                    remote : function(){
                        $('#name').rules('remove', 'remote');
                        return "";
                        return "Name is already taken, Please choose some other name"
                    }
                },
                category:{
                    required : "Please choose your category to start Quiz"
                }
            },
            errorPlacement : function(error, element) {
                $(element).closest('.form-group').find('.help-block').html(error.html());
            },
            highlight : function(element) {
                $(element).closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-success').addClass('has-error');
            },
            success : function(element, lab) {
                var messages = new Array("That's Great!", "Looks good!", "You got it!", "Great Job!", "Smart!", "That's it!");
                var num = Math.floor(Math.random() * 6);
                $(lab).closest('.form-group').find('.help-block').text(messages[num]);
                $(lab).addClass('valid').closest('.form-group').removeClass('has-error').addClass('has-success');
            }
        });
    }
});


$('.cont').addClass('hide');
count = $('.questions').length;
$('#question'+1).removeClass('hide');

$(document).on('click','.next',function(){
    last=parseInt($(this).attr('id'));     
    nex = last+1;
    $('#question'+last).addClass('hide');
    
    $('#question'+nex).removeClass('hide');
});

$(document).on('click','.previous',function(){
    last=parseInt($(this).attr('id'));     
    pre = last-1;
    $('#question'+last).addClass('hide');
    
    $('#question'+pre).removeClass('hide');
});
