default value in a "Array (Numbers)"-type question was created by noyrb
Hi,

Is there a possibility to assign a default value of 0 for all elements in a "Array (Numbers)"-type question?

I'm using LimeSurvey: Version 2.50+ Build 160603.

Are you using drop-down or text input mode?

Set up your survey to use JavaScript and place this script in the array question source.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $(document).ready(function() {  
    $('#question{QID} input.text').each(function(i) {
      if($(this).val() == '') {
        $(this).val(0);
        fixnum_checkconditions(this.value, this.name, this.type);
      }
    });  
  });
</script>
Cheers,

Another solution, without javascript.

Add an Equation question type at start of your survey and set the value (if it's empty) for each of you sub question
Code:
{QCODE_SQ001_SQ001=if(is_empty(QCODE_SQ001_SQ001.NAOK),"0",QCODE_SQ001_SQ001.NAOK)}
{QCODE_SQ001_SQ002=if(is_empty(QCODE_SQ001_SQ002.NAOK),"0",QCODE_SQ001_SQ002.NAOK)}
...

This seems to be a totally different question.

And I am not too sure what you are trying to do. What do you mean with "with a write"?

Make a screenshot/image, your ASCII art won't work here in the forum, as the font used is not fixed width.

I assume that you want a scale from 1-6 plus "I don't care", This is quite simple. You can create your custom scale.

For the texts with code 1 and 6 you just put something like this into the box for the answer option.
Code:
Not true<br/>1

That is what I explained to you above. You use the normal array type question and as answer option you will create 1,2,3,4,5,6,0.

When you want text above the number, like for 1, 6 and 0 you adapt the code I gave you. The < br > tag will create a line break.

Thank you so much for your answer.

I did that and I fixed in part becasue the program is puting the label only in the first row.

I need to have a number label (1,2,3,4,5,6,0) in each row and not only in the first one. This because I have lot of items and after the 5th one people can't know which answer is linked to the number.

So I need to have for each row the numbers at least.

Thank you in advances
