Hi Tony,
Why do you propose the javascripts solution and not the "hide always" setting? Imho this is exactly the situation where the "hide always" option is created for. I see javascript as something for things that can not be done in limesurvey.
To be clear: I am referring to "hide always" and not to the relevance. I know that if relevance is zero, the question is not neglected. But a hidden question _is_ evaluated.

Maybe you can tell me how I do to get answers to my hidden question? I think it would work like a charm if it only worked but if I make attribute_1 to a question I only get an emty field when I look at the answers.

You do not really need a hidden question here, as Tammo mentioned before. You can export the attributes and filter on this attribute in excel. But Often hidden questions are handy.
If you want to make a hidden question referring to an attribute: there are several options.
1 Tammo already suggested to create an equation. Then set the question text to {TOKEN:ATTRIBUTE_1} (if this is the correct attribute).
2 I always do it in anouther way. Create a short text question. Then click on edit default values for this question. Set the default value to {TOKEN:ATTRIBUTE_1}
The first option has the effect that the value changes if the attribute changes. In general the attribute does not change. In the second option the question gets a value only once, and this value stays the same as long as you don't edit it.
In both cases: edit the question. Click on Show advanced settings. In the group: Display: set Always hide this question to "yes"

I think I will go crazy...:/ I do like this:
1. I go to the first group of question and add a new question that I put before every other question in that group.
2. I make the question to an equation and set the question text to {TOKEN:ATTRIBUTE_1}
3. I make the question hidden.
And then it doesn´t show up at all when I try to show diagrams from the survey :/

Hi Anna,
The hidden question looks fine. I presume you also give values to attribute 1
Now you can export the data to excel and generate graphs, filtering out classes.
From what you write I now understand you want to generate tables or graphs withing limesurvey itself. I think it is much easier to do that within excel (or spss or r).

Yes, I give values in the token-table. You now they have name, e-mailadress, token and then attribute 1.
And yes, I prefere to generate graphs using limesurvey itself because I think it will save me hours and hours of work. And also because I´m really not good at this :) But I understand much more now and I will see if I will try R someday. I think I might have come up with a half of a solution. I can use their id-number (from 1- 10, 11-20 and so on) to create graphs within the group. Not so nice - but easy :) Thanks again for your help!
