responses is initialised to an empty array when the interaction class is initialised. So the instance must exist. It may or may not have had responses added to it yet, or all the responses added - where is the script that tries to address them?

I thought the same thing...

I could test that, but since I got 0 instead of Undefined for the length query, I assumed the rest of the objects had to exist.

does it exist when you try and get at it?
 
debug(question) ?? undefined??

Hmm.

My interaction (id question) has 4 responses with names, id's, correct set to 1.

If I debug:
question.responses.length

I get 0

Hello
 
I don't know how this function works, but I can possibly help as thus
 
INTERACTION.prototype.judge = function() {
 //check that each response whose correct is not undefined
 //has the same status as correct
 for (var i = 0; i<this.responses.length; i++) {
  if (this.responses[i].correct != undefined) {
   //trace(this.responses[i].correct +" " +this.responses[i].status);
   if (this.responses[i].correct != this.responses[i].status) {
    //doesn't match - user cannot have matched all correctly
    return false;
   }
  }
 }
 return true;
};
 
That is the flash source code of the function, so it looks like you need to set responses for the interactions for a judge to work.

Hi List, 

another beginner's question. Imagine the following structure: 
-- page 1 
---- interaction: id=question1 
-------- button 1: correct=0 
-------- button 2: correct=0 
-------- button 3: correct=1 
-- page 2 
---- script: question1.judge() 

The script returns undefined, regardless of what the user clicks. I also tried false and true instead of 0 and 1. What's wrong?
