+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xI am just about to run an MTurk study where the participants read a Plain Language Statement at the beginning of the study and a Debriefing statement at the end. These are currently embedded in the script as images. Our Ethics Committee requires that participants have the option of downloading both of these statements and I can't find a way of doing this other than to direct them first to a Qualtrics survey where the PLS is downloadable then to Inquisit and then back to another Qualtrics survey with the Debriefing statement OR getting them to enter their email address in the first Qualtrics survey and then emailing them the debriefing statement individually (which would be fun as we are wanting 300 participants). Is it possible to embed downloadable pages in an Inquisit 5 script? Thanks You can put a download link for the Plain Language Statement on your experiment's launch page (or -- if you prefer -- in your announcement on MTurk). Similarly, you can upload a custom finish page (HTML file) containing a download link to your Debriefing statement and redirect your participants to that custom finish page via your web experiment's settings. All these things would happen outside of your actual script, i.e. the script itself would neither contain the Plain Language Statement nor the Debriefing statement (or any links to either). Hi Dave, Thanks for this. I may be being an idiot but I can't see how to put a downloadable link on the launch page. Is there something I'm missing? Also, with the custom finish page how do I put in a download link. Sorry for being an idiot but I'm just not familiar with doing this. Have you put the statements online already in some downloadable format (e.g. PDF files in a public Dropbox folder or the like)? If so, you merely put the link to the respective document in the launch page's body and in a HTML file (for the custom finish page) which you can create with a HTML-capable editor of your choosing. You then merely upload the HTML finish page file along with your script and select to re-direct to that page in the web experiment's settings. Does that clarify? Hi Dave, Thanks so much. I'll try this but I'm not really familiar with any of it so I may need some more help. I don't have a public Dropbox folder but will try to create one and then see if I can link it on the launch page. None of the people here (Melbourne Australia) know how to do this so we're on a steep learning curve :-) Here's a quick example of a PDF download link on a regular launch page: http://research.millisecond.com/test/plsdebriefexample.webThe PDF is hosted on Google Drive in this case, but it would work essentially the same with Dropbox or any other method of hosting the files. The text you put into the "Enter any text you'd like to display on the launch page (optional):" field in your web experiment's settings is something along the lines of The Plain Language Statement can be downloaded here: <a href=" https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0BwXTttjjK3zgbDlUajZWd3RpZzg">PDF</a> (replace the part in bold with the link to your respective file) I've also added redirection to a (very simple) custom finish page to the above example. Like the launch page, it has a download link for a dummy debriefing document (PDF) hosted on Google Drive. The respective HTML file is attached, and you can view / edit it with a simple text editor (think: Notepad). You need to remove the .txt extension from the attached file (the forum doesn't allow uploads of files with .html extension for security reasons). Hope this helps. Thanks Dave!! Your help is really appreciated. Jenny Hi Dave, Everything is working fine except the finish page. I put a link to it

Hi Dave, Sorry for the incomplete reply I just posted. Everything is now working fine except the finish page. Rather than coming up the a link to download the PLS it actually displays the content of the finish page (which can be viewed at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3554932/finish.htm.txt. Note I've added the txt to the file handle because you said not to post htm pages. Could you please let me know what I'm doing wrong? Many thanks, Jenny

Again, could you tell me what I am doing wrong? Best Jenny

You upload the file -- finish.htm -- to your Inquisit Web account along with all the other files (the script, any images the script requires, etc.). You then select finish.htm as the custom finish page to redirect to in the "Finish Page" step in your web experiment's settings. That should be all.

On a laptop the whole page is not displayed and you need to scroll down to read all the text but the cursor is inactive on these pages and the 'press the space bar to continue' instruction is displayed at the bottom of the screen. How do I make the cursor active on these pages? Thanks for all your help Jenny

No. That's because you have created a HTML file *that displays* something that looks like HTML code. I've fixed that for you and upload a properly encoded HTML file. See for yourself here: https://scripts.millisecond.com/bolderoj/kimina1/finish.htm> How do I make the cursor active on these pages? You need to set /inputdevice = mouse in the script's <instruct> element. I've fixed that for you as well, and you can test it via your link: http://research.millisecond.com/bolderoj/kimina1.web
