==================
Hello everyone,
I am new to Lime and to programming. Thankfully, I had help from this forum to develop a table with a drop-down list in three languages.
I would like to know if it is possible to replace or capture a response in a specific cell (i.e., X001code, X002code, etc) in either language with a different value instead of the text? For example, if a respondent selects response (X001code) (Missing, no disponible or non disponible), I want to replace the text ineither language with a single code (i.e., "M", "X",, "Z", etc) regardless of language.
Thank you.

Hi,
you used the wrong script.
I don't know where you found it.
This script stores the text.

To store the value change the "listeners" and "Returning to page" part to

Code:

    // Listeners
    $('.inserted-select', thisQuestion).on('change', function(i) {
      if($(this).val() != '') {
        $(this).closest('.answer-item').find('input:text').val($('option:selected', this).val()).trigger('change');
      }
      else {
        $(this).closest('.answer-item').find('input:text').val('').trigger('change');
      }
    });
 
  // Returning to page
    $('.with-select input:text', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
      var thisCell = $(this).closest('.answer-item');
      var inputText = $.trim($(this).val());
      $('select.inserted-select', thisCell).val(inputText);
    });
