At 05:19p -0700 07/28/2004, Patrick Zittle didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
Hey Everyone! I was just wondering what the format for a if-then
script? I would like to ask a display a question and if they insert
anything but the answer it asks the question again. How can I do
this?
You can use a repeat loop. Try this:
set theQuestion to "Who wrote WorldWideWeb.app?"
set repeatQ to "Sorry, wrong answer. Try again." & return & theQuestion
set theAnswer to "Tim Berners-Lee"
repeat
display dialog theQuestion default answer ""
if text returned of result contains theAnswer then
exit repeat
else
set theQuestion to repeatQ
beep
end if
end repeat
