Conditionally set question input to disabled? was created by blocka
I have a survey where I pass a URL Parameter called "DisableThem" to the first question in my survey (where value is either Y or empty).


If DisableThem = "Y", I'd like to set several short text response fields to disabled -- so that the values cannot be editted (this is because several questions are also prepopulated with parameters passed to the survey under some conditions.

I still want to show these questions and the response values, but I don't want the participant to be able to edit the responses.

I'm thinking some javascript to check the value of DisableThem and then jquery to change the question input to disabled could work, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Is it possible?

Something like this, but it's not working, so I'm doing something wrong:
Code:
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(
function(){
   var lockit = '{DisableThem.NAOK}';
   if (lockit) == 'Y' {
       document.getElementById("answer458485X809X13701").readOnly=true;
       } else {
       document.getElementById("answer458485X809X13701").readOnly=false;
       }
     }
);
</script>

Try this:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).on('ready pjax:complete',function() {
    var lockit = '{DisableThem.NAOK}';
    if (lockit == 'Y') {
      $("#answer123432X6804X55061").prop('readonly', true);
    } 
    else {
      $("#answer123432X6804X55061").prop('readonly', false);
    }
  });
</script>

Place something like this in the source of the question:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
  $(document).on('ready pjax:complete',function() {
    $('#question{QID} input:text').prop('readonly', true);
  });
</script>

You could also do it with a custom question theme.

Question theme ?

Or survey theme ?

You're right about survey theme, but don't have an easy way to update it : put a global class using an expression {if(MyCondition," answer-disable","")}

And in css
.answer-disable .answer-item {
pointer-events: none;
cursor: not-allowed;
}

Question theme - like browserdetect

Code:
<input
    class="form-control {{kpclass}}"
    type="text"
    name="{{name}}"
    id="answer{{name}}"
    value="{{dispVal}}"
    {% if inputsize is not empty %} size="{{inputsize}}" {% endif %}
    {% if maxlength is not empty %} maxlength='{{maxlength}}' {% endif %}
    readonly="readonly"
    aria-labelledby="ls-question-text-{{basename}}"
/>

Huh? tpervaiz asked about a short-text question which is what browserdetect is.
