Hi pgraju, I have a few quick suggestions and comments for you. You probably have each question set to a certain type (free text, 1-5, 1-10, A B C...)? To choose the correct gui element, I would, in the view (not the controller), use the same logic that sets which type of question it is for the model side of things. Or, you might want to look at something like the Wizard component in the bakery. It is ideal for surveys as well.
