Movie Quote Quiz

Movie quote quiz

I built an interactive movie quote quiz where you guess titles from IMDb. I used JavaScript’s onKeyUp event to validate entries against encrypted answers, instantly updating the score and background colors for correct guesses.

These are movie quotes. How many titles can you guess? (Use IMDb titles.)

Dhar 21 Jan 2006 1:55 am: Hmmm, I got 30 / 40. Nice one!

ritzkini 21 Jan 2006 6:02 am: good one !

jake 21 Jan 2006 11:02 am: hey good quiz, i got 31: “seen me everyday for 16 years” should read “seen me everyday for 13 years”.

S Anand 21 Jan 2006 11:02 am: Correction: “seen me everyday for 16 years” should read “seen me everyday for 13 years”.

Another corrigendum 21 Jan 2006 12:55 pm: there’s a ’the’ mismatch in one of the answers

S Anand 21 Jan 2006 1:14 pm: Oh, which quote?

joe 21 Jan 2006 8:59 pm: why does the all time hits change? i remember seeing bill gates at 200 now it is done to 198.

S Anand 21 Jan 2006 10:52 pm: I removed some duplicate entries last week (i.e. people accidentally clicking twice).

Parshu 2 Feb 2006 6:37 am: how did you create this thng, when i type a name if right it becomes green and score gets updated. Kindly help me out with this technique. So i can too develop something on similar lines

S Anand 2 Feb 2006 5:33 pm: The logic for turning stuff green is the onKeyUp function in those boxes. If what’s typed matches the encrypted answer, I turn the style.background attribute to green, and increment the quizCount element (which is just a span element) by 1. Hope it doesn’t sound Greek… just see the source.

Ravi 3 Oct 2006 6:40 am: Good one anand. I got 34. I think i got the other 6 also but somehow not getting the names in the right format. These movies are sequels & have long names with colon etc.
