Multiple numeric input with hidden input fields was created by RHLSA1
Dear Forum,
I would like to implement the following question, where one answer option includes a numerical input:
But in the workaround I only found how to hide comments from multiple-choice questions, which worked well for the cases where I needed it:
manual.limesurvey.org/Workarounds:_Quest...comments.22_question
Is there a similar possibility to hide input boxes for multiple numerical input or another way to implement it?
Thanks in advance,
RHLSA1

I don't see how a multiple numerical would help you. There would be no way to select "No" or "Don't know".

Hi tpartner,
thank you. the idea is that the text you have on the left is still visible, but the input filed not.
so basically:
yes __ 'suffix'
no (__ 'suffix') hidden
don't know (__ 'suffix') hidden

or do you mean that numerical input option can only be checked if i tipe a number in the input field?
so in this case, I can only use a multiple choice with comment, do I understand it right? is there a way to specifiy that a numerical input is required as comment?

This is a typical paper to online issue.
This is a very good case for two questions. Ask yes, no, don't know and if yes, show the question about days per year via relevance equation.

I would use a multiple-choice-with-comments type question and insert this script which will:
- Remove the second and third text inputs
- Render the text input numeric-only
- Enforce a maximum number of characters for the text input
- Add a suffix for the text input
- Render check-boxes exclusive
Sample survey attached:
- Remove the second and third text inputs
- Render the text input numeric-only
- Enforce a maximum number of characters for the text input
- Add a suffix for the text input
- Render check-boxes exclusive
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){ // Identify this question var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}'); // Remove the second and third text inputs $('input:text.form-control:gt(0)', thisQuestion).remove(); // Listener on the text input $('input:text.form-control', thisQuestion).on('keyup change', function(e) { var thisValue = $.trim($(this).val()); // Strip out non-numerics characters newValue = thisValue.replace(/\D/g,'').replace(/,/g,'').replace(/\./g,''); $(this).val(newValue); }); // Size and max characters for the text input $('input:text', thisQuestion).attr('size', 3).attr('maxlength', 3); // Suffix for the text input $('input:text', thisQuestion).css({ 'display': 'inline-block', 'margin-right': '0.5em' }) .after('Tag(e) pro Jahr'); // Render answers exclusive $('input:checkbox', thisQuestion).on('change', function(e) { if($(this).is(':checked')) { var thisRow = $(this).closest('.checkbox-text-item'); $('.checkbox-text-item', thisQuestion).not(thisRow).each(function(i) { console.log(i); var thisCheckbox = $('input:checkbox', this); var thisText = $('input:text', this); $('input:text', this).val(''); $('input:hidden', this).val(''); $('input:checkbox', this).prop('checked', false); }); } }); }); </script>

Thanks a lot tpartner, I tried it now and it worked - is there an easy adaption to have the input visible for the first 2 out of 4 answer options? And then also have different suffixes for these input fields?
I tried some variations in line
but I am unfamiliar with javascript and it did not work.

Hi,
I can give you an answer.
As you might imagine this line
means "all controls greater than (gt) 0 are removed".
So you should adapt by saying
And the same you do with the different suffixes.
Also consider that only existing text inputs are counted.

Teilfrage'); $('input:text.form-control:eq(1)', thisQuestion).css({ 'display': 'inline-block', 'margin-right': '0.5em' }) .after('Suffix der 2. Teilfrage');

Thanks a lot also for the explanation Joffm!
So an alternative to gt would be st for smaller than?
And is there a way to combine this, let's say I have 5 options but only the 4th should display an input field?
