multiple choice: 7 answers whereby 2 two are paradoxical - how to adjust the Que was created by JohnDoe2000

i have a multiple choice question with 7 possible answers, e.g.
my face contains following parts:
- one nose
- one ear
- a right ear --> answer 5
- a mouth
- two ears ---> answer 3
-....
Is it possible to adjust the question so that question 3 and question 5 can't be chosen at the same time?
I would be glad if you could help me and it would be great if you could also tell me, if it's possible if there is a further case like this in this multiple choice-question, e.g. for answers 5 and 3 as well as for the answers 4 and 6.

Thank you.

I guess you can do it in 2 ways: jQuery or Server side validation using EM

Hi,

www.limesurvey.org/manual/Question_type_...28em_validation_q.29

Then, if your question code are MULTI, and ech subquestion have code SQ1,SQ2 ....
If you don't want SQ3 at same time than SQ5:

Code:

count(MULTI_SQ3,MULTI_SQ5) <2

And for as 4+6 at same time

Code:

count(MULTI_SQ3,MULTI_SQ5) <2 AND count(MULTI_SQ4,MULTI_SQ6) <2

See www.limesurvey.org/manual/Expression_Manager for all variable and function.

i normally use JQuery function....

Code:

<script>
$(document).ready(function (){

$("#[YourQuestionId]").find(".checkbox").change(function() {

        var chId=$(this).attr('id');

        if($(this).is(":checked")) {
             
             if (chId == '[Anserwer5id]' ){
                      $('#[Anserwer3id]').removeAttr('checked');
              }

             if (chId == '[Anserwer3id]' ){
                      $('#[Anserwer5id]').removeAttr('checked');
              }
         }
});


});
</script>
