[edit] question.

This document assumes that you have the question object in a variable named question. This is most often achieved in a loop, such as:

[% FOREACH question IN survey.questions; %]

or using a custom template function such as getQuestion:

[% question = getQuestion(id); %]

[edit] question.id

Contains the ID # of the question as listed in the survey editor. This is unique across all of your surveys and is used in getQuestion and other custom template functions.

[edit] question.type

This variable will be set to 'ConstantSum' for a Constant Sum question type.
