This instruction letter outlines six ways to link to or distribute your survey.
You will note that the examples given are already setup with links to your individual survey... just copy and paste the code provided.

Method 1: E-mail Survey (Viewable in the E-Mail)
From the builder page, you pressed "E-mail Survey"

You should have received an e-mail with instructions and another e-mail with your survey as part of the message.
Method 1 is basically one of forwarding the survey you received to your list of respondents.

To administer an e-mail survey, follow the following steps:

1. Prepare your mailing list.
2. Prepare your survey. This is done by forwarding the email message containing the survey.

You will note that when you forward the message, the sender information from the original message will appear at the top of the message. Of course you don't want this information in your message, so simply go into the message and edit out this text.

You may also type an additional text message to the top of the survey if you desire (Such as a note asking them to participate in your survey).

3. Test your result by forwarding the original message to your own e-mail address until you are satisfied with your message.

4. Finally, add your e-mail list to the "To:" list and send the message to those on your e-mail list.

Method 2: Adding a Text Link to Your E-Mail Letter

A hyperlink may be inserted into your e-mail letter to prospective respondents.

The respondents will receive your e-mail requesting their participation and asking them to click on the hyperlink.

Creating a hyperlink:
1. Type your e-mail letter.
2. When finished, highlight (using your mouse) the text you want to have linked (In this example, it is "Internet Attitude Survey").

3. After highlighting, click on "Insert" "Hyperlink" from the e-mail software menu.
4. When it asks you for the link URL or address, enter the address of your survey:

headerNavSelected/akira/TakeSurvey?id=39 (Change 39 to your survey id)

If completed successfully, the words that you selected will be underlined and be a link that connects to your survey.
A new browser window will be opened and the survey is displayed in it.

Method 3: Adding a Button Link to Your E-Mail

The sample gray button shown below is added to your site by adding the following to your e-mail message.

Note that some e-mail programs are not capable of viewing or inserting graphics as part of the e-mail.
If there is no button viewable as part of this message, then your e-mail client is not graphics capable.
If you are using this option, be sure that your e-mail program is capable of sending and receiving graphics.
As a fail-safe for those who will receive your e-mail and do not have a graphics capable e-mail clients, we recommend you to use both a text link and a graphics link (methods 2 and 3 simultaneously).

1. Insert the graphic into your e-mail by selecting "Insert" "Picture" and then entering the picture source as:
headerNavSelected/images/ssbutton.gif
The button will then appear in your document as below.

2. Next, highlight (using your mouse) the button.
3. After highlighting, click on "Insert" "Hyperlink" from the e-mail software menu.
4. When it asks you for the link URL or address, enter your survey address:

headerNavSelected/akira/TakeSurvey?id=39

The survey button will now be activated as a link to your survey

Method 4: Adding a Text Link to Your Web Site

A web link would be inserted by you into the HTML of your web page. The HTML for this link appears as:
<BR><A HREF="headerNavSelectedakira/TakeSurvey?id=39"> The Text You Want to Appear For the Link </A>

In this case the words "The Text You Want to Appear For the Link" would appear on your web site as a link that would connect to your survey.
Under this option, when you click on the link the browser goes to the survey.

Method 5: Open a Separate Pop-Up Browser Window From a Web Site Link

In this case of a web link that could be inserted by you into the HTML of your web page. This java-script opens separate browser window for taking the survey and leaves your original browser window pointing at your web site. The HTML for this link appears as:

<script language="javascript">

</script>

<A href="javascript: newWindow = openWin( 'headerNavSelected/akira/TakeSurvey?id=39', '', 'toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menuBar=0,scrollBars=0,resizable=0' ); newWindow.focus()"> Internet Attitude Survey </A>

The first part of the link in quotes includes the address for your survey and the second "Internet Attitude Survey" is the text that you would like to have your respondent click on.
