      find

         function validate()
         {
            global $config, $db, $user;
       
            $error = '';
            
            if (!sizeof($this->question_ids))
            {
               return false;
            }
      

      Must change to

         function validate()
         {
            global $config;
       
            $error = '';
            
            if (!sizeof($this->question_ids))
            {
               $error = "Wrong question confirmation";
               return $error;
            }
