I have a dilema. I have an HTML form which is in a test format, and the  
form has multiple questions, and each question has multiple radio  
buttons. I need a way to distinguish which question each set of radio  
buttons belongs to, and I can’t think of a way to do this.

This is basically what the form looks like:

Question #1

Question #2

And this is the database table the test results are being saved to:

survey\_results  
id : int  
student\_id : int  
question\_id : int  
answer : int

Is there a way to somehow hardcode what the value of the question\_id  
field for each question should be? What can I do?
