List (ratio) with prefix and sufix for numerical input? was created by nhotovas
Hi all,

I have a List(Radio) question, and one of the options/answers should have a possibility for inputting a number. With other words, one option should be i.e. „About [HERE INPUT A NUMBER] costumers order online. “
It should look like this:


I temporary resolved this with the option "other", but the problem is that the number should be between some words and not at the end.
Do you have any ideas how to add suffix on "other“ or any other solution to resolve this?

Thanks for help.

You should be able to move the input via JavaScript.

What LimeSurvey version are you using?

Thank you for your response. I assumed it could be solved with JavaScript, and I tried but did not manage... but honestly I am not an expert for JavaScript :(
I would appreciate a lot your help if you had an example for sharing.

I use version 2.05+ Build 141229.
Regards!

1) Insert something like this as the "Label for 'Other:' option":

Code:
About <span class="value">x</span> customers order online.

2) Add this script to the question source:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    $('#question{QID} .other-item span.value').after($('#question{QID} label[for$="othertext"]')).remove();
  });
</script>

Dear Tony,

In my company have plans to upgrate lime version (probably on 2.7X). So i imported my survey from 2.05 on trial version of lime , just to see how it will works, but unfortunately this code what you recomended doesn't work. It worked perfectly in lime 2.05. Do you have any idea why it shouldn't work on new lime versions? I worry if I don't find solution, becouse users used to have it in this form.
Now it looks like:



Thank you in advance...

LimeSurvey 2.7X is using a complete different template system. So nearly all workarounds which depended on HTML modification via Javascript need an update. With LS 3.0 the whole templatesystem changes again. So you might wait till LS 3.0 is hitting the street and then start the migration tests.

I agree with Jelo. If you you are thinking about upgrading now at this point in time, I would wait a little longer until a stable 3.0 is out (was promissed for this year, but I am not sure how realistic this still is). However, we already have Release Candicate 3, so I guess it can only take a few weeks until a stable release will be published. Hopefully this was not such a quick shot and the template system will stay stable for quite some time (but I think it will, because Denis took care of it and I think he is more the "stable" kind of guy anyway). Then it will also be worth to develop own templates and for Tpartner to develop his workarounds.

Yes, I would also wait for 3.x before updating - many many improvements.

Hi all...

thank you for your advices, but the company will gradually upgrade to the 3.0 and for the current needs the upgrade to 2.72.6 will be done now. The other surveys do not have same problem like I am facing with this upgrade, so I must search for some way out and solution for my problem.
Any idea?

"but the company will gradually upgrade to the 3.0 and for the current needs the upgrade to 2.72.6 will be done now."
Makes totally sense. Waiting 3 years with upgrades, then, when 2.7x is getting to end of life and 3.0 is about to come out make a quick upgrade to 2.7x.

I assume the next update and upgrade to 3.x is planned in about 2 years, when 4.0 is coming out? ;-)

This will work for 2.72.5...

1) HTML for the Other label:

Code:
About <span class="post-text"> customers order online.</span>

2) JavaScript:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).ready(function() {
    $('#question{QID} input[type="text"]').parent().after('<div class="pull-left post-text-wrapper" style="padding:5px 0 0 5px;" />');
    $('#question{QID} .post-text-wrapper').append($('#question{QID} span.post-text'));
  });
</script>
