using the same help text multiple times

Hello everyone.

I'd like to use the same help text of a question for various following questions (also in different question-groups).

Could anyone please tell me how to realize that? It's not a good solution to me to change 20 help texts for every single change...

There is no feature for this but copy-paste should do the trick.

If you see the need to change this text frequently, you could define the string in template.js and then insert it with a script in appropriate questions.

1) Add something like this to the end of template.js:
Code:
var helpText1 = '<p><img align="left" alt="Help" src="/limesurvey/images/help.gif"> Some common help text...</p>';

2) In all questions where you want the text to appear, add this to the source of "Help":
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> document.write(helpText1); </script>


.

Cheers,
Tony Partner
