I check the answer via javascript before uploading then give them an alert that they are wrong and HINT: this is the answer: X. So, even if they get it wrong, they get the answer given to them. I know that if they have js turned off it won't matter, but I really don't care about those minute amount of people who have js turned off and can't add two single-digit numbers correctly.
