Array numbers with checkbox and an exclusive option

Array numbers with checkbox and an exclusive option was created by eloner
Hello,
I have a question like that:



(type: array numbers with checkbox).

and the following subquestions:



I need to set LimeSurvey in order to uncheck all the flags on a row if "I don't know" is chosen.
How can I set this condition?
I tried to insert SQ004 (the code for "I don't know") in the field "Exclusive option" (Advanced settings), but it doesn't work...
Am I missing something?
Here is the question code:

Have a look here: I think this describe exactly your problem:
www.limesurvey.org/en/community-services...e-of-these-exclusion
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
Note: I answer at this forum in my spare time, I'm not a LimeSurvey GmbH employee.

Thank you Holch,
I used the workaround www.limesurvey.org/manual/Workarounds:_M..._Excludes_All_Others to my question, but apparently it doesn't work.
What I require is:
- to uncheck all the first options of a row if I choose the last
- to uncheck the last option of a row if a choose one of the first
I enclose a copy of the question with the javascript added according to Tony Partner's workaround:

Hmm...it seems that there was a typo in that workaround which I have fixed.

Here it is with the typo fixed and support for relevance:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // Call the exclude function using question ID
    excludeOpt({QID});
  });
 
  // A function to make the last option in each array row exclusive
  function excludeOpt (qID) {
 
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID)
 
    // Add some classes to the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).addClass('normalOpt');
    $('tr.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
      $('.normalOpt:last', this).removeClass('normalOpt').addClass('exlusiveOpt')
    });
 
    // A listener on the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).click(function (event) {
      handleExclusive($(this));
    });
 
    // A listener on the checkboxes
    $('td.checkbox-item input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).click(function (event) {
      handleExclusive($(this).closest('td'));
    });
 
    function handleExclusive(thisCell) {
 
      var thisRow = $(thisCell).closest('tr');
 
      // Uncheck the appropriate boxes in a row
      if ($(thisCell).hasClass('normalOpt')) {
        $('.exlusiveOpt input[type="checkbox"]', thisRow).attr('checked', false);
      }
      else {
        $('.normalOpt input[type="checkbox"]', thisRow).attr('checked', false);
      }
 
      // Check conditions (relevance)
      $('td.checkbox-item', thisRow).each(function(i) {
        var thisValue = '';
        if($('input[type="checkbox"]', this).is(':checked')) {
          thisValue = 1;
        }
        var thisSGQA = $('input[type="checkbox"]', this).attr('id').replace(/cbox_/, '');
 
        $('input[type="hidden"]', thisRow).attr('value', 'thisValue');
        fixnum_checkconditions(thisValue, thisSGQA, 'hidden');
      });
    }
  }
</script>

Here's a sample survey with some added questions to display relevance functionality:

Now it works perfectly!
Thank you Tony!
And... you can evaluate the quality of a program also from the quality of the answers you get to your doubts and questions! ;)

What if I want exclusive option for each column instead of each row. Do we have a workaround too?

David, use this to make the last row exclusive:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // Call the exclude function using question ID
    excludeOpt({QID});
  });
 
  // A function to make the last option in each array row exclusive
  function colExcludeOpt (qID) {
 
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID)
 
    // Add some classes to the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).addClass('normalOpt');
    $('tr.subquestions-list:last td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).removeClass('normalOpt').addClass('exlusiveOpt')
 
    // And some column-specific attributes
    $('tr.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).each(function(i){
      $('td.answer-item', this).each(function(i){
        $(this).attr('data-column', i+1);
      });
    });
 
    // A listener on the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).click(function (event) {
      handleColExclusive($(this));
    });
 
    // A listener on the checkboxes
    $('td.checkbox-item input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).click(function (event) {
      handleColExclusive($(this).closest('td'));
    });
 
    function handleColExclusive(thisCell) {
 
      var thisColumn = $(thisCell).attr('data-column');
 
      // Uncheck the appropriate boxes in a row
      if ($(thisCell).hasClass('normalOpt')) {
        $('.exlusiveOpt[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).attr('checked', false);
      }
      else {
        $('.normalOpt[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).attr('checked', false);
      }
 
      // Check conditions (relevance)
      $('td.checkbox-item[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"]', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
        var thisValue = '';
        if($('input[type="checkbox"]', this).is(':checked')) {
          thisValue = 1;
        }
        var thisSGQA = $('input[type="checkbox"]', this).attr('id').replace(/cbox_/, '');
 
        $('input[type="hidden"]', this).attr('value', 'thisValue');
        fixnum_checkconditions(thisValue, thisSGQA, 'hidden');
      });
    }
  }

eloner, I found a small bug that may affect conditional questions. Please use this revised code:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // Call the exclude function using question ID
    excludeOpt({QID});
  });
 
  // A function to make the last option in each array row exclusive
  function excludeOpt (qID) {
 
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID)
 
    // Add some classes to the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).addClass('normalOpt');
    $('tr.subquestions-list', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
      $('.normalOpt:last', this).removeClass('normalOpt').addClass('exlusiveOpt')
    });
 
    // A listener on the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).click(function (event) {
      handleExclusive($(this));
    });
 
    // A listener on the checkboxes
    $('td.checkbox-item input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).click(function (event) {
      handleExclusive($(this).closest('td'));
    });
 
    function handleExclusive(thisCell) {
 
      var thisRow = $(thisCell).closest('tr');
 
      // Uncheck the appropriate boxes in a row
      if ($(thisCell).hasClass('normalOpt')) {
        $('.exlusiveOpt input[type="checkbox"]', thisRow).attr('checked', false);
      }
      else {
        $('.normalOpt input[type="checkbox"]', thisRow).attr('checked', false);
      }
 
      // Check conditions (relevance)
      $('td.checkbox-item', thisRow).each(function(i) {
        var thisValue = '';
        if($('input[type="checkbox"]', this).is(':checked')) {
          thisValue = 1;
        }
        var thisSGQA = $('input[type="checkbox"]', this).attr('id').replace(/cbox_/, '');
 
        $('input[type="hidden"]', this).attr('value', 'thisValue');
        fixnum_checkconditions(thisValue, thisSGQA, 'hidden');
      });
    }
  }

I would like to implement this code on version 2.73.1
The goal is to uncheck "no involvement" if any of the other options in a column are selected and uncheck the all other options in a column once "no involvement" is selected.

If we could take it another further step by disabling selections per column after "no involvement" is selected, that would be great, but it's not needed.

I have attached a photo of my current question layout -- Array(numbers)

A link to a survey does not help with development and I don't have time to create test surveys for everyone.

My apologies. Are you more so looking for the survey structure (.lss)?

This script will render the last row of an array-checkboxes as exclusive. Additionally, when a check-box in the last row is checked, all other check-boxes in that column are disabled.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}')
 
    // Add column-specific classes
    $('tr.subquestion-list', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
      $('th, td', this).each(function(i) {
        $(this).addClass('column-'+i).attr('data-column', i);
      });
    });
 
    // Add some classes to the checkbox cells
    $('td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).addClass('normal-opt');
    $('tr.subquestion-list:last td.checkbox-item', thisQuestion).removeClass('normal-opt').addClass('exclusive-opt');
 
    // A listener on the checkboxes
    $('td.checkbox-item input[type="checkbox"]', thisQuestion).change(function (event) {
      handleExclusive($(this).closest('td'));
    });
 
    function handleExclusive(thisCell) {
 
      var thisColumn = $(thisCell).attr('data-column');
      var thisCheckBox = $('input[type="checkbox"]', thisCell);
 
      // Uncheck the appropriate boxes in a row
      $('.checkbox-item[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input[type="checkbox"]').prop('disabled', false);
      if ($(thisCell).hasClass('normal-opt') &amp;&amp; $(thisCheckBox).is(':checked')) {
        $('.exclusive-opt[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input:hidden').val('');
        $('.exclusive-opt[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input[type="checkbox"]').prop('checked', false);
      }
      else if ($(thisCheckBox).is(':checked')) {
        $('.normal-opt[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input:hidden').val('');
        $('.normal-opt[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"] input[type="checkbox"]').prop('checked', false).prop('disabled', true);
      }
 
      // Check conditions (relevance)
      $('td.checkbox-item[data-column="'+thisColumn+'"]').each(function(i) {
 
        var thisValue = '';
        var itemCheckBox = $('input[type="checkbox"]', this);
        var thisSGQA = $(itemCheckBox).attr('id').replace(/cbox_/, '');
        var aelt = $('#answer'+thisSGQA);
 
        fixnum_checkconditions($(aelt).val(), thisSGQA, 'hidden');
        checkconditions($(itemCheckBox).attr('value'), $(itemCheckBox).attr('name'), $(itemCheckBox).attr('type'))
      });
    }
  });
</script>



Here is your test survey back with that script in the source of the array:
