How do I hide or disable answer options after a certain time?

Hello Limesurvey-Team,


I want to hide (or disable) radio buttons 10 seconds after the question is loaded.

I used the following skript in a former study (it worked fine; now I am using Version 2.71.1+170927 ):


</script><script type = "text/javascript" charset = "utf-8">

$(document).ready(function() {

setTimeout(function() {

$('#answer828677X2577X12206SQ003').attr("hidden", true);

}, 11000);

});


</script>


It seems that the "hidden"-command isn't working any more. The problem with the "disabled"-command (which is working) is that the answers aren't stored.

Does anyone have an idea what I could try? That would be great! Thank you very much in advance.

This is a little more complicated than it seems. What happens if someone has already selected that radio?

Thank you, for your reply tpartner!

If I use the "disabled"-command - the command works: the buttons are disabled after a time criterion, and it looks as if the answers would be "locked" (Picture 1) - but they are not stored (there are no entries in the data file). I actually had this problem before in an older limesurvey-version - and then used the "hidden"-command, which isn't working anymore (the radios are not hidden)...

You haven't answered my question. What do you want to do if a radio has already been selected?

Hmm... I am not quite sure if I understand your question.

I want the question to work like a "classic" multiple selection question - with a time criterion (no changes should be possible after 10 s). So, If a radio has been selected - this should be stored as an answer (or one of the multiple answers).

I'm confused. You say "multiple selection question" but radios are for single-choice questions.

Can you attach a small sample survey containing only the pertinent question(s)?

Okay, I think the solution is simply to re-enable the check-boxes when the "Next" button is clicked.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
  $(document).ready(function() {
 
    setTimeout(function() {
      $('#question{QID} input:checkbox').prop('disabled', true);
    }, 11000);
 
    $('#movenextbtn, #moveprevbtn, #movesubmitbtn').on('click', function(e) {
      $('#question{QID} input:checkbox').prop('disabled', false);
    });
  });
</script>
