Multiple column drop down lists was created by MartynT379
Hi, my question relates to three (or multiple) level drop down boxes with additional information relating to each entry.  
For example, can this be done with the data appearing in columns. 

15/03/2021 |  Mr J Brown         |  Reading books
22/04/2021 | Miss P White       |  Watching films
23/04/2021 |  Mrs F Craddock |  Baking cakes

I don't want this to be listed with dashes between the list (for example) because the data should come from three sources (create an array in the background).  

Is this something that Limesurvey is capable of?  I would prefer not to use external widgets but happy to write a bit of javascript and/or CSS. 

A better (and working) example is the third example in this link, however this does use a widget.

Thanks for any replies.

Not out of the box. you will need to do it with JS or a third-party library.

Cheers,

Hi Tony Partner,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I'll look into using javascript if possible.

Follow up question - are you aware of any third party library that will do what I am wanting? (Sorry if this question isn't appropriate).
