Hey Tony,

Can you please help with two other variations of such a question, but when the "Other" textboxes are located horizontally?

I have made sample questions to illustrate it. I have a bunch of questions like this in the survey...





The difference between the two is the number of columns, which I suppose would need different JS code, correct?

I would be happy if you could help out!

In that case, you should centralize the script with a jQuery plugin.

1) Assign a CSS class "with-array-comments" to all of the array questions where you want the text inputs inserted.

2) Add the following to the end of your theme custom.js file:

Code:

$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
  // Apply the plugin to specific arrays
  $('.array-flexible-row.with-array-comments').arrayComments();
});
 
// A jQuery plugin insert comments into radio arrays
(function( $ ){
 
  $.fn.arrayComments = function(options) {  
 
    var opts = $.extend( {
    }, options);
 
    return this.each(function() { 
 
      // Identify the questions
      var thisQuestion = $(this);
      var q1ID = $(thisQuestion).attr('id').replace(/question/, '');
      var thisQuestion = $('#question'+q1ID);
      var nextQuestion = thisQuestion.nextAll('.multiple-short-txt');
      var q2ID = $(nextQuestion).attr('id').replace(/question/, '');
 
      //Hide the multiple-short-text
      nextQuestion.hide();
 
      // Move the text inputs
      $('tr.answers-list', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
        var thisCode = $(this).attr('id').split('X')[2].split(q1ID)[1];
        $('td.answer-item:last input[type="radio"]', this).css({
          'position': 'absolute',
          'left': '-9999em'
        });
        $('td.answer-item:last', this).removeClass('radio-item').addClass('inserted-text-item').append($('input[type="text"][id$="X'+q2ID+thisCode+'"]', nextQuestion));
      });
 
      // Listeners on the text inputs
      $('input[type="text"]', thisQuestion).on('keyup change', function(e) {
        var thisRadio = $(this).closest('td').find('input[type="radio"]');
        var thisRadioVal = thisRadio.val();
        if($.trim($(this).val()) != '') {
          $(thisRadio).trigger('click');
        }
        else {
          $(thisRadio).prop('checked', false);
          thisRadioVal = '';
        }
        // Reset Expression manager
        checkconditions(thisRadioVal, $(thisRadio).attr('name'), 'radio', 'click');
      });
 
      // Listeners on the radios
      $('input[type="radio"]', thisQuestion).on('click', function(e) {
        if(!$(this).closest('td').hasClass('inserted-text-item')) {
          $(this).closest('tr').find('input[type="text"]').val('');
        }
      });
    });
 
  };
})( jQuery );

Hi Tony,
When I use this workaround, then other questions with multiple short text are hidden in the same question group and I can't make them visible.
It happens in both cases - when I add a JS code to a single array question and when I use a jQuery plugin css.
Is it possible to avoid this in the code somehow?

Sorry, typo.

Change this line:
To this:

Change this line:

Code:

var nextQuestion = thisQuestion.nextAll('.multiple-short-txt');

To this:

Code:

var nextQuestion = thisQuestion.nextAll('.multiple-short-txt:eq(0)');

No problem. Many thanks for getting back to this, Tony!

Can you please also take a look at the situation which I described in a previous post, when textboxes are located horizontally? When you have time, man.

besides the plugins,
how if I want the free text in front of other options?

Hi, Rita,

I have another solution for you.
Of course it is an adaption from Tony:


Of course you can change the css at the end of the script .

Best regards
Joffm

is the question type are the same as array and multiple short text?

The question type is array(text)

I appreciate your kind assistance

Can you please help with two other variations of such a question, but when the "Other" textboxes are located horizontally?

Can you attach a small sample survey?

Place a multiple-short-text question directly after the array. This question should have exactly the same sub-questions as the array y-scale.

Give the array question a CSS class "with-checkbox-array-comments".

Add this to custom.js:

Code:

$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
  // Apply the plugin to specific arrays
  $('.array-multi-flexi.with-checkbox-array-comments').cbArrayComments();
});
 
// A jQuery plugin insert comments into checkbox arrays
(function( $ ){
 
  $.fn.cbArrayComments = function(options) {  
 
    var opts = $.extend( {
    }, options);
 
    return this.each(function() { 
 
      // Identify the questions
      var thisQuestion = $(this);
      var q1ID = $(thisQuestion).attr('id').replace(/question/, '');
      var thisQuestion = $('#question'+q1ID);
      var nextQuestion = thisQuestion.nextAll('.multiple-short-txt:eq(0)');
      var q2ID = $(nextQuestion).attr('id').replace(/question/, '');
 
      //Hide the multiple-short-text
      nextQuestion.hide();
 
      // Move the text inputs
      $('tr.subquestion-list', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
        var thisCode = $(this).attr('id').split('X')[2].split(q1ID)[1];
        $('td.answer-item:last input[type="checkbox"]', this).css({
          'position': 'absolute',
          'left': '-9999em'
        });
        $('td.answer-item:last', this).removeClass('checkbox-item').addClass('inserted-text-item').append($('input[type="text"][id$="X'+q2ID+thisCode+'"]', nextQuestion));
      });
 
      // Listeners on the text inputs
      $('input[type="text"]', thisQuestion).on('keyup change', function(e) {
        var thisCheckbox = $(this).closest('td').find('input[type="checkbox"]');
        if($.trim($(this).val()) != '') {
          $(thisCheckbox).prop('checked', true);
          $(thisCheckbox).prev('input:hidden').val(1);
        }
        else {
          $(thisCheckbox).prop('checked', false);
          $(thisCheckbox).prev('input:hidden').val('');
        }
        // Fire Expression manager
        $(thisCheckbox).trigger('change');
      });
    });
 
  };
})( jQuery );

Hi Tony! Is it possible to modify the code so that when you type in a textbox it excludes all others? (like it is in this workaround )
Many thanks!

Hey guys,

I need to make this kind of question - array(numbers) with multiple choice and text boxes for Others.



Well, in theory, it's similar to what Tony wrote earlier (when text boxes were in the last column), but I can't figure out what should be changed to move them to the other column.
I would like to make this type of question so that "Don't know" is at the end and when clicked it cancels the first choices. So, I wonder if two JS scripts can be run at the same time or there must be one that combines the two workarounds? Because the code for the last column that cancels the previous ones exists .

I'd appreciate if someone could help.

BTW I use LS 3.7
