Thanks tpartner for resolving this question for me!
@Joffm: No, I did not put the array question and the short text question that should be merged in different question groups - as my lss exports also show.
But I have several questions where I want to merge an array question with a short text question to provide the "other" option for the participants to type in. And those are in different question groups and I want to display them group by group. As I understand tpartner, this is not possible with JavaScript because they all have to be displayed on the same page.
Please correct me, if I am wrong!
And I also resolved my mistake with the array-numbers with checkboxes. I counted wrong, I am sorry (td.answer-item:eq(2) instead of (3))
It works.
So for me, all questions resolved now. Thanks again for your help!
