[LON-CAPA-users] not printing choices in an option response

[ciskep]

I am working on a stoichiometry problem where the student will place units from
a dropdown menu into conversion factors.  (I have copied the code below.)  The
problem is that when I try to print it, the print out says something like
"choose from options ..." and lists the options.  My option response is built
into a table and this really messes up the format of the problem.  Is there a
way to stop this from happening?

I would like to tell the problem to not display the options when printed. 
Thanks for your help.

The problem code is:

<problem>

<script type="loncapa/perl">

$m=&random(12,50,.1);
$index=&random(1,4,1);
$start=&choose($index,"g HCl","mol HCl","g Ca(OH)2","mol Ca(OH)2","g CaCl2");
$first=&choose($index,"mol HCl","mol H2O","mol Ca(OH)2","mol H2O","mol CaCl2");
$second=&choose($index,"mol H2O","g H2O","mol H2O","g H2O","mol H2O");
$third=&choose($index,"g H2O","N/A","g H2O","N/A");
$fourth=$start;
$fifth=$first;
$sixth=&choose($index,"mol H2O","N/A","mol H2O","N/A");


</script><startouttext />

In the problem below, place the correct labels in the conversion factors needed
to solve the problem.  If a conversion factor is not used, select N/A from the
dropdown list.
<br />
In the reaction <chem>2HCl + Ca(OH)2 -> CaCl2 + 2H2O </chem> , if $m
<chem>$start</chem> is reacted, what mass of <chem>H2O</chem> is produced?
