I want to design a quizzing application, a small presentation kind of thing having quiz questions and multiple choice answers.
selecting option and display of correct answer should be a little animated.

for e.g. a show like who will be a millionare, the quizzer asks questions and selects answer option. if correct answer, then the money level moves up.

can we design something like this using iwork09 or any other mac software??
plss help and advice.

Thanks.

Sounds like a job that Flash could do pretty easily.

You could do a simple multiple-choice quiz quite easily in Keynote, with the exception of score keeping. Keynote can't do that.

I would write it in JavaScript instead of Flash. Little animations are no problem for Safari.

In the meantime I'd suggest using scriptaculous if you want to make the quiz web-based. As far as the original poster is concerned, Flash is going to be the best GUI based application for designing something like this, I reckon...
