is a partial printout of the results page. The following code is the HTML for it 
    <td><p>39) question goes here</p>
      <blockquote>
        <p> sub question goes here
      </blockquote>
      <p>
        <input name="q39" type="radio" value="reading">
      reading 
      <input name="q39" type="radio" value="writing">

  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><p>40) True or false?  question goes here</p>
      <blockquote>
        <p> sub question here</p>

}

if ($questions{"40"} eq "false")
{
   $right++;
   
}
else
{
