Multiple short text with different suffix was created by ProjetLions

Hello! I want to create a multiple short text answer with different suffix for each "text". I want the question to look like this :

What is your dog's weight?
_______pound ________ounces

If it's not possible to create a question like the first example, the question could also look like this :
What is your dog's weight?
______pound
______ounces

Thanks in advance!

Add this script to the question source:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">	
	$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
		// Change the second suffix
		$('#question{QID} .suffix-text:eq(1)').text('ounces');
    });
</script>

Hello,

I have been looking for a similar solution. What do I need to change in the script if I want to have three different suffixes?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello,
thanks for this solution! I am very happy to find a lot of helpful solutions in the forum.

Is it possible to use bold font for a part of the text which is manipulated in javascript? I need to add different suffixes, but some parts of it should be bold. I tried to implement HTML-code, but it doesn't work. The HTML-code is shown as text. Unfortunaltely, my javascript knowldege is rather elimentary.

Thanks in advance!

You can insert HTML like this:

<script type="text/javascript" data-author="Tony Partner">	
	$(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
		// Change the first suffix
		$('#question{QID} .suffix-text:eq(0)').html('<strong>Y</strong>ears');
 
		// Change the second suffix
		$('#question{QID} .suffix-text:eq(1)').html('<strong>D</strong>ays');
 
		// Change the third suffix
		$('#question{QID} .suffix-text:eq(2)').html('<strong>H</strong>ours');
    });
</script>
