Hello!


I have a few questionnaires as part of my Inquisit 2 script.  The problem is that these questions appear in different positions depending on which computer I run the script on.  In the lab, where I did the programming, the questions appear in a reasonable position on the screen (i.e., slightly above center), but when I run the script on my laptop, the questions appear cut off at the top of the screen.  Also, even when running the script on the lab computer, if I run it from the desktop it is fine, but when I upload it to the web and try to run it, the questions move upward, to the very top of the screen.  Here's an example from the script:



<text expster>
/ items = expster
/ select = sequence
/ fontstyle = ("Arial", 32pt)
/ txbgcolor = (150, 230, 180)
/ vposition = 30
/ area = (800, 600)
</text>

<item expster>
/ 1 = "It is possible that men have more math ability than women."
/ 2 = "In general, men may be better than women at math."
/ 3 = "I don't think that there are any real gender differences in math ability."
</item>

<block questionnaire>
/ preinstructions = (q_intro)
/ bgstim = (7scale, 7scalelabel)
/ trials = [1-11=noreplace(expster, genid, mathid)]
</block>


Does anyone have any idea how I can keep the questions from moving around? Your help is much appreciated!

Thanks,
Laura
