Once youve created your survey:

Set advanced settings

On this screen, we set ‘Read Access’ to ‘All Responses’, ‘Edit Access’ to ‘Only their own’ and ‘Allow items from this survey to appear in search results’ to ‘No’. Setting read access to ‘All Responses’ seems a bit weird. After all, you will normally not want your anonymous users to see the responses of all other users. We will change this back later, but for some reason, it is necessary to select this option here.

Set Permissions

Next we go to the permissions screen:

The survey by default inherits the permissions from the site, but for anonymous surveys this will not do. By selecting ‘Edit Permissions’ from the ‘Actions’ menu, you can specify specific permissions for this survey.

The Setting menu has now appeared and from it, we choose ‘Anonymous Access’.

In this screen, make sure that the check boxes for ‘Add’ and ‘View’ are selected.

Set advanced settings again

If this is alright, we can go back to the ‘Advanced settings’ screen to set Read Access back to ‘Only their own’.

There, you’re set. The survey can be filled out by all anonymous users, but they cannot see each others entries. The information entered in these forms will be stored in the survey’s library and you can inspect each entry or view aggregated graphs of all entries. So what happened here? We first set the ‘Read Access’ to ‘All Responses’, because only then can we set the Anonymous Access settings (all check boxes will be greyed out otherwise). But after setting the permissions, we can safely turn access to all responses off again. This procedure is a bit odd, but it works.

NOTE: This solution does not work if your survey includes branching logic.

If you have ever tried to format text and / or insert line breaks into your questions in sharepoint surveys, you’ll know its not an easy task. However by adding some simple javascript you can format the text in your questions as you want.

Basically at the bottom of your survey page add a Content Editor Webpart & insert the follow script:

<script language="JavaScript"> var ClassName; ClassName = 'ms-formlabel';</p> <p>var elements = new Array();</p> <p>var elements = document.getElementsByTagName('td');</p> <p>for(var e=0;e<elements.length;e++) { if(elements[e].className == ClassName) {</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('startitalic','<i>');</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('enditalic','</i>');</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('startbold','<b>');</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('endbold','</b>');</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('linebreak','<br/>');</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('startunderline','<u>');</p> <p>elements[e].innerHTML = elements[e].innerHTML.replace('endunderline','</u>');</p> <p>}</p> <p>}</p> <p></script>

You will see the script is mapping your HTML standard HTML command to keywords to trigger your formatting.

So say you wanted your question to appear in italics, you would edit your question as normal but insert the italic keyword triggers ie.

How old are you?

To appear in italics you would write the question as:

startitalic How old are you? enditalic

Now your question will appear in italics and so on……..

If you cant edit your survey page to add you CEWP see the previous post on how to edit this page.
