标题重写:Bug in my quiz causes infinite score increase when correct answer is pressed multiple times

So, I'm creating a CSS animation for my degree, and I have the quiz set up so that it loops through questions with specific answers, the quiz is fully functional, etc... However, I noticed that when When you press an answer multiple times when correct, the score will increase, even if the answer has already been selected and the initial score increase has been added. It starts with a screen with text on it to provide the narrative for the game we are creating, which is also what is expected.

This is a single-page setup where all pages are inside a parent container, and the pages on the child containers are called in a loop.

Code for styling using JQuery with HTML and CSS.

    // --------------------------Multiple Choice Page------------------------//

    $("#start-button").click(function() {
      $("#beginning-screen").remove();
      ;})

      $("#start-button-quiz").click(function() {
        $("#beginning-screen-quiz").remove();
        ;})

    $('#answer1').click(function(){
      $(this).addClass("selected");
      setTimeout(function() {
          checkAnswer(1);
      },1000);
    });
    $('#answer2').click(function(){
      $(this).addClass("selected")
      setTimeout(function() {
          checkAnswer(2);
      },1000);
    });
    $('#answer3').click(function(){
      $(this).addClass("selected")
      setTimeout(function() {
          checkAnswer(3);
      },1000);
    });

    $('#next-btn').click(function(){
      nextQuestion();
    });
    nextQuestion();

   correctAnswer:3,
   feedback:"If the four bulbs were NOT identical, the current would still be shared out, but not equally."

  {question:"Wires are normally made from copper. This is because:",

Any explanation on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated, although users may not be able to find the bug, I still want to cover all bases and make sure it's fixed for the integrity of the game design.

I tried adding:

// Disable all answer boxes to prevent further selection
  $('.answer-box').prop('disabled', true);

However, there was a bug in Google's developer mode so I removed it but it still didn't stop the issues I was having and then this also caused more issues and didn't allow me to press the next button , and disables the selection process after pressing the first correct answer completely.

    I think you have to iterate your answer box.

    To adapt the example of this question and the answer below ( jQuery loop over elements with the same class ), you should change the JS code to:

    $('.answer-box').each(function(){
         $(this).prop('disabled', true);
     });

    Here I added CalculationCourse when the score increases

    Try thisJSFiddle

    function checkAnswer(selectedAnswer) {
        var theCorrectAnswer = quizData[currentQuestion - 1].correctAnswer;
        // remove the grey selected class
        $('.answer-box').removeClass("selected");
    
        // turn the boxes red or green depending on if they are the correct answer
        $(".answer-box").each(function (index) {
            if ((index + 1) == theCorrectAnswer) {
                $(this).addClass("correct");
            } else {
                $(this).addClass("incorrect");
            }
        });
    
        if (selectedAnswer == theCorrectAnswer && $(".score").hasClass('calculated') == false) {
            // got it correct
            score += 10;
            $(".score").html(score);
            $(".score").addClass('calculated');
        } else {
            // got it wrong so do nothing
        }
        // show feedback and next button
        $("#next-btn").removeClass("hidden");
        $("#feedback").removeClass("hidden");
    }

    And add at the beginning of nextQuestion()

    $(".score").removeClass('calculated');
