Disable radio buttons after selection was created by Deusdeorum
So the subject title pretty much says what I'd like to do, after I select a radio button I want to lock all other options so that you cannot change your answer. I have been trying below javascript to do something like that but without success, im not sure where i am thinking wrong though..
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
  $(document).ready(function() {
    if($('#question{QID} input.radio:checked').length > 0) {
      radio.disabled = true;
    }
  });  
</script>

Try this:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $(document).ready(function(){ 
    $('#question{QID} input.radio').on('click', function(e){
      $('#question{QID} input.radio').not(this).prop('disabled', true);
    });
  });
</script>

Works great in 2.5 (not tested in 2.06 yet).
Help us to help you!

Hmmm, I think I was judging too quick. I was using the same question for another issue to test something and I noticed that when you click on the answer option instead of the radio button, the radio buttons stay the same, but the response changes...

Not really sure what you mean, the javascript works for me even though you're clicking on the radio buttons or the corresponding text option. Version 2.06+ with a simple template

Oops, forgot about the labels - try this:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $(document).ready(function(){ 
    $('#question{QID} input.radio').on('click', function(e){
      $('#question{QID} input.radio').not(this).prop('disabled', true);
      $('#question{QID} input.radio:checked').prop('disabled', false);
    });
  });
</script>

Nope, still not working under 2.5.

I actually only noticed this, because in the next question I am referring to the response of this exact question via EM.

The radio button that was marked first stays marked. But when you click on the labels, they answer seems to change, as it changes the referred response in the next question.

Hmm, there seems to be a propagation of the checkconditions() function in 2.5. Try this:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $('#question{QID} input.radio').on('click', function(e){
      $('#question{QID} input.radio').not(this).prop('disabled', true);
      $('#question{QID} input.radio:checked').prop('disabled', false).trigger('click');
    });
</script>

There may be a problem if returning to the page but my guess is if you are "locking" the radio questions after answering, you will not allow returning to the page.

Tested it, but now it does not do anything at all.

You can click through the answers just as if there wouldn't be any Javascript.

Hi Tpartner,

Please find my example attached.

I used the default template of 2.5 for testing (I am trying to force myself to use LS 2.5 for all new tests... ;) )
