error when inserting response page

hello,


I'm having an error pop up that I don't understand. I'm trying to have a screen with a text box appear between instruction pages, so participants can complete a manipulation check. Can I add a <text> <openended> item between <page> items if I define them in the block? Or, do I have to remove the <page> items and create <text> pages for the instructions instead, and define everything as a <trial>. Does this question make sense?


Thanks!

No, you can't. An <openended> is a trial and must be run as such (via a <block>'s /trials attribute). A <page> is not.

Yes, that would be one way.
