No repeat value in matrix question was created by josegovia

I have a question type array with five sub-questions. In each sub-question the respondent can put a value from 1 to 5.

I want to make the respondent put different values in each sub-question. For example, if the sub-question 1 put the value 3, in the sub-questions 2, 3, 4 and 5 he can not put the value 3.

How can you do this?

Thank you.

Set up your survey to use JavaScript and add this script to the array question source:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">	
	
	$(document).ready(function() {
		
		// The error message
		var errorMsg = 'You can only select one answer per column';

		// Identify the question
		var qID = {QID};
		var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);

		// Listener on the radios
		$('.radio-item', thisQuestion).click(function(event) {
			// Check for more than one answer per column
			var answerCode = $(this).attr('class').split('answer_cell_00')[1].split(' ')[0];
			if($('.answer_cell_00'+answerCode+' input[type="radio"]:checked', thisQuestion).length > 1) {
				alert(errorMsg);
				$('input[type="radio"]', this).attr('checked', false);
			}
		});
	});
</script>

Hi Tony,

I had added the script to the source of the array question, but still can't work. It should be have different answer on 1st, 2nd, 3th, 4th and 5th mention. Any suggestion? Thanks.

You indicated that you were using an array question , not an array by column question .

For an an array by column question use this script:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">	
 
	$(document).ready(function() {
 
		// The error message
		var errorMsg = 'You can only select one answer per row';
 
		// Identify the question
		var qID = {QID};
		var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);
 
		// Listener on the radios
		$('.radio-item', thisQuestion).click(function(event) {
			// Check for more than one answer per row
			var thisRow = $(this).closest('tr');
			if($('input[type="radio"]:checked', thisRow).length > 1) {
				alert(errorMsg);
				$('input[type="radio"]', this).attr('checked', false);
			}
		});
	});
</script>

Here is your survey back with the amended script.
