Your question is a bit vague, but I'll have a go. Apologies if I misinterpret it.

This doesn't have much to do with Codeigniter. As the events to which your exam site needs to respond are triggered by actions in the examinee's browser (e.g. a answer, clock ticking down, clock reaching zero) it's really about the javascript that you write to manage these events and to ajax answers back to the server.

Apart from the initial page load, you'd use Codeigniter functions only to record each answer and provide a response back to the browser (which may simply be an acknowledgement that it's been received and recorded.

Thanks for your reply , you correctly got the point. i don't know javascript , ajax that was the problem . And i am a beginner of CI ,so i didn't figure out what should i do.Whatever thanks a lot to you.

Here are a few recommendations based on what I'd do ...

I'd use jQuery and the [email=http://jquery.malsup.com/form/]jQuery form plugin[/email] to greatly simplify the javascript.

Then you can build an ajax handler in Codeigniter in pretty much the same way as you'd load a page, except that the output will be returned to browser as an ajax response rather than a fresh page load (jQuery's ajax wrapper will take care of that for you).

It is a big, big learning curve. But once past it you'll be surprised at how little code you need to write to achieve all this - jQuery and Codeigniter do all the hard work for you, and nowadays a bit of an understanding of javascript is indispensible for anybody doing web development.
