script to hide an entire question was created by jcruz
I'm playing around of the things scripting can do to manipulate the behavior of the survey. And I was wondering how to hide a question (including the subquestions and everything) using a script. I know this thing can be done in a snap when initializing the question. But how to do this with a script?

Hi,

In question text HTML source
Code:
<script>
$(function() {
  $("#question{QID}").hide();
});
</script>

Hi Denis,

Thanks for your reply! I've actually thought of this exact script. But it's not working. I actually came up with the scripts that hide subquestions but never the entire question container. Having said that, I am sure that I have enabled Javascript. It's just that I can't select the right element in my scripts. Is "#questionSSSSXGGXQQ" really the right id? I'm not quite sure about my version of LS but administrator said last update was early this year I think.

You should see the version of LS in the footer of the administration pages.
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).

Thanks everyone! I misunderstood {QID} being the whole SGQA indentifier. When I only used question id alone, it worked.

If you read : i put #question{QID} not anything else.

I think Denis' point is that you don't need to replace "{QID}" with anything - LimeSurvey will automatically insert the ID.
Cheers,
