    <ul>
     <li>
       <i>name</i> this is the name of the group, a hash
       with this name will be generated holding the
       mappings for later use in the problem. For each
       location a value will be set for which label is
       there, (EX. $hash{'1'}="TEXT-2"). For locations
       with values the hash will contain 2 items, a
       location to value mapping ($hash{'value_1'}=10),
       and a label to value mapping
       ($hash{'labelvalue_2'}=10). For all image style of
       labels there will also be a label description to
       label URL mapping ($hash{'image_2'}=IMG-URL). Also
       the entry 'numlocations will be set to the total
       number of locations that exist.
       (Note that locations and labels start counting from 1.)

    specification, and the description filed must be set.
    <br />Arguments:
    <ul>

       <ul>
         <li>
    grade_target, grade_username, grade_domain, grade_symb - the
    vaules take precedence over the the normal ENV settings of
    these, use &Apache::lonxml::whichuser() to get back the
    correct vaues of the items
         </li>
         <li>
    HWVAL_response:number - the name of the input elements for each response. The response is the response's ID, and the :number part exists only for response with multiple foils, and is a unique number in order of the submission
         </li>

    changerandseed - the 'Change' button, only exists right after

         <li>
    rndseed - the currently requested random seed
         </li>
         <li>
    showallfoils - if it exists, and we are in CSTR space, the
    problem should ignore &lt;conceptgroup&gt; and the response's
