The truth, that you was afraid to do it tomorrow too...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I fear nothing except fear itself!
And spiders.
And heights.
Depths aren't a lot of fun either.

The code for the site is open-source - in fact the quiz itself is hosted on GitHub Pages.
The idea is that someone could create a similar quiz site for Star Trek, the Marvel Universe, Batman v Superman, etc by simply tweaking my code. I might even write a CP article about how I built it, depending on how popular it becomes
Feel free to share it around, post it to Reddit, etc... my gut feeling is that this could go viral
I also created a Facebook page[^] for the people who enjoy liking those things.

I did the test and failed miserably with 2/6 in Level 1 ...
BTW, very nice concept and implementation, but I did not look into the code yet,
Cheers,

The end result is a black and white strobe effect.
Also, it seems to be broken in Firefox 43. It just shows a block of blue squares with one cyan square moving round it. No questions ever come up. (Works fine in Chrome, though.)

Perfect on the first two levels. 4/6 on the last two levels. Three of my correct answers on level 3 were flat out guesses.

Apologies if this has been posted to incorrect forum. Feel free to suggest alternatives.
Requirement: University unit must cover Web Site creation and Programming Concepts.
Audience: A mix of students. Some have programmed. Others have not. Some will seek career in IT but not as code developers. Some are business students who just want exposure to some simple Web Dev.
Question: Which prog language?
Current Plan (very flexible):
Cover very basic concepts of Web Servers, Web Browsers, HTML5 / CSS3. Enough to understand that a web page is a collection of files etc . Students will create some very simple web pages.
Next, use WordPress instead of 'low level' HTML5 & CSS3.
Students experience Themes, Plug-ins, configuration, backups etc. Many students create quite sophisticated sites.
Previously VB.NET and VBA (excel macros) were used for programming.
Negatives:
* .NET requires purchase of s/w and install and .Net framework
* VB syntax does not help newbies read/understand c-style syntax used in most other languages that they may experience
* Simple desktop apps don't fit into web space
* C# is OK, but cost, install, framework etc are still an issue
Pluses:
* Simple to learn. Useful code. Allows students to automate excel, or have little trouble writing a small scripts or even manage to write a simple stored procedure (they also do some DB work in other units)
So, any suggestions on which language you think would be best in such circumstances? (The reason I'm asking this question here is that many people in my workplace have set ideas that haven't changed in years (decades?)). Thanks, Peter
