Hi,

I gotta write a small document that shows a series of questions (all
web-based). Depending on the answers to a question (for multiple
choice question obvisouly), the users will be prompted this or that
next question. So basically this is a flow-based question sequence.
Chances are I'm going to write than one of those in the distant
future, so I'd like to work with an XML schema.

I'm sure there's got to be some sort of existing (semi-)standard
schema for defining this (SCORM maybe?), but looking online for tems
like "xml schema question sequence" just gives a whole bunch of
useless results of course

Does anybody know where I could find this?

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

The trouble with pre-built standard schemas is that they are usually
overkill for simple applications, unless you really want interoperability.
The closest thing I could find was http://xml.coverpages.org/triple-s.html
which does deal with multiple choice surveys.
