Can I disable some fields within an array was created by SvenF
Hi,

I have to do an array question but not all questions have the same number of results.

It should look like this for example:
1234
question1XXXX
question2XX
question3XXXX

At question2 there should only 1 and 3 being selectable within the array.

Is this possible or must I do separate questions?

Assuming you are using a normal array question...

You can use JavaScript/jQuery to hide some of the radio inputs.

Set up your survey to use JavaScript and add a script like below to the question source. This will hide the sixth and eighth radios in the question.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
  $(document).ready(function() {
    $('#question{QID} input.radio:eq(5)').hide();
    $('#question{QID} input.radio:eq(7)').hide();
  });
</script>
Cheers,

We are now using Lime Survey Pro Hosting. Is it differrent to hide some parts of the matrix? I used the same code as above. JS is running wenn I test with "alert('bla')" but the radios did not hide.

It is the same as with Limesurvey CE. But the solution presented here is most probably not for the version LS 3.x LTS, but probably for LS 2.06 LTS or LS 2.7x, given that this is a 6 year old thread!
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

Ok - I know this is my old tread.

We use now LimeSurvey Professional Version 3.22.20. Is ist not possible with this version or can I use another solution?

Should be possible, but needs adaptation, because the HTML of the new templates is different. But I am quite sure that this question has been solved for 3.x lts somewhere in the forum.

To follow the example above, try this (untested from memory as I'm responding via phone):

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
   $(document).ready(function() {
    // Remove row 2, radio 2
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(1) .radio-item:eq(1) *').remove();
    // Remove row 2, radio 4
    $('#question{QID} tr[id^="javatbd"]:eq(1) .radio-item:eq(3) *').remove();
  });
</script>
