The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Select Image instead of radio button - Javascript

Zone: JavaScript
Tags: Javascript - Replace Radio Button with image select
Please note that the code on page 1 some javascript that replaces the function of a radio button.  
The code that drives this is line #46-53 and some of the code surrounding the form elements on lines #74-76.  
Question: How can I efficiently use that same select feature for additional variables.  For example, for the code listed under "page 2", lines #82-111.  How would the existing code change to accommodate this? Please use the variable referenced in the Page 2 section to demonstrate how I can add variables to the base version that I have on page 1.

To see the code running go here:  http://www.g3crm.com/expert/index2_question.htm

Thanks very much.

All you need to do is add a parameterto your function.  Your function at line #47 would become something like the attached code and you would pass the name of the element you want to change in the 'elem' parameter such as "gender"

function selectcolor(elem, text) {
  document.getElementById(elem + document.getElementById(elem).value).style.border = "2px solid white";
  document.getElementById(elem + text).style.border = "5px dotted #ffcc00";
  document.getElementById(elem).value = text;
