Abstract-Nowadays, and after the rapid development of information systems make the researchers
look for an easy and automated way to collection and analysis of a data in a questionnaire that enables
researchers to obtain the results quickly instead of using manual way. Questionnaires are used in a
wide range of settings to gather information about the views and behavior of individuals to inform
people about the specific issues. Feedbacks of the questionnaires are used by the researchesr to find an
accurate result with supporting of statistical analysis functionalities. The main invention summary
concerns with analyzing the online questionnaireis the easy way that enables researchers to get the
results quickly instead of manual way. Finding a result using java tools enable the researcher to find
an accurate result for statistical analysis. In addition, there is a strong relationship between
questionnair eand research, questionnaireis are the most important phase in research. Consequently,
this study focuses on thedevelopment of the online questionnaire to facilitate and support the
researcher’s tasks by using Online Questionnaire System to reduce loss of papers, time and effort.
Moreover, the system has been tested based on usability and flexibility.

i. INTRODUCTION
A questionnaire is a research instrument consists of a series of questions and their prompts in
purpose of gathering information and opinions of the respondents (Chaudhuri, Ghosh, &
Mukhopadhyay, 2009). Sir Francis Galton was the first who invented the questionnaire. Questionnaire
could also mean the method of collecting data for descriptive research by using a list of questions;
often mailed.Questionnaire is one of the ways that are often used by the researchers to finish their
research. The researchers use the questionaire because there are many advantages of using it, such as
cost-effective, easy to analyze and for most of the process of statistical analysis software and most
people aware of using the questionnaire.
Collecting the data through web pages is the best and most effective way to collect responses
from the participants. By using Graphical User Interface (GUI) the data is transmitted from the
participant to the questionnaire system. The participants will be notified by sending the questionnaire
via e-mail. Therefore, this study contributes to the design and development processes of the online
questionnaire system. The research system enables the users (the researchers) to create an online
