There is no built-in provision to add sub-headings to arrays but you can do it with a little JavaScript.

Add the following to the end of template.js:

Code:

function insertSubHeading(qID, rowNum, text) {
  var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID+'');
  var cols = $('table.subquestions-list thead td, table.subquestions-list thead th', thisQuestion).length;
 
  $('#question'+qID+' table.subquestions-list tbody tr:eq('+(rowNum-2)+')').after('<tr class="subHeading"><th class="answertext">'+text+'</th><td colspan="'+(cols-1)+'"></td></tr>');
}

And, then to insert a subheading in row 3 of the array, add something like this to the question source. Replace the row number (3) and the text (SUBHEADING 1) as necessary

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
  $(document).ready(function(){
    insertSubHeading('{QID}', 3, 'SUBHEADING 1');
  });
</script>

Cheers,

Hello,

A solution i use sometimes:
If question is not mandatory (but have solution for this too).

Add for subheading in sub question

Code:

<strong>My sub heading</strong>

And in js:

Code:

$("table.question tbody th > strong").each(function(){
$(this).closest("tr").addClass("sub-heading");
}

In css:

Code:

.sub-heading input{display:none}
.sub-heading{background:#ccc}

Neither option seems to work in Version 2.50+ Build 160425
Are there any changes to the code needed, or other suggestions?

Try this:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $(document).ready(function(){
    // Call the function
    insertSubHeading('{QID}', 3, 'SUBHEADING 1');
  });
 
  function insertSubHeading(qID, rowNum, text) {
    // Identify some stuff
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID+'');
    var cols = $('table.subquestion-list thead tr:eq(0) > *', thisQuestion).length;
 
    // Insert the new row
    $('#question'+qID+' table.subquestion-list tbody tr:eq('+(rowNum-1)+')').before('<tr class="subHeading"><th class="answertext">'+text+'</th><td colspan="'+(cols-1)+'"></td></tr>');  
 
    // Fix up the row classes
    var rowClass = 1;
    $('table.subquestion-list tbody tr', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
      if($(this).hasClass('subHeading')) {
        rowClass = 1
      }
      else {
        rowClass++;
        $(this).removeClass('array1 array2')
        if(rowClass % 2 == 0) {
          $(this).addClass('array2');
        }
        else {
          $(this).addClass('array1');
        }
      }
    });
  }
</script>

Thanks again for the quick reply!
Adding this to the question field doesn't work; the code gets removed upon saving it seems.

I changed the following:

Code:

    insertSubHeading('{QID}', 1, 'Traditionele media');
    insertSubHeading('{QID}', 4, 'Digi media');

Is there anything that I need to differently?

That should work assuming your survey is set up to use JavaScript .

Yup, sorry, I didn't check my question preview properly. Tried to delete my answer from the forum but that didn't work.

So it does seem to work indeed, although the code does seem to get removed upon re-editing the question (it's not visible in when using 'Source' and after saving again the subheadings are removed indeed from the preview).

In any case I can get it working

To add a dash of colour to the subheadings I can add the following to my css file, right?

Code:

tr.Subheading { background-color: purple; color: #ffffff; }

Yes, if you like purple.

I think I prefer the blue of the standard template

Last comment for other users: I updated the code so that the heading will span across the table (ie: added colspan to th, removed td, right after the "// Insert the new row")

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
  $(document).ready(function(){
    // Call the function
    insertSubHeading('{QID}', 1, 'Traditionele platformen');
    insertSubHeading('{QID}', 8, 'Digitale platformen die niet horen bij bovenstaande &amp;#39;traditionele media&amp;#39;');
  });
 
  function insertSubHeading(qID, rowNum, text) {
    // Identify some stuff
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID+'');
    var cols = $('table.subquestion-list thead tr:eq(0) > *', thisQuestion).length;
 
    // Insert the new row
    $('#question'+qID+' table.subquestion-list tbody tr:eq('+(rowNum-1)+')').before('<tr class="subHeading"><th class="answertext subHeading" colspan="'+(cols)+'">'+text+'</th></tr>');
 
 
    // Fix up the row classes
    var rowClass = 1;
    $('table.subquestion-list tbody tr', thisQuestion).each(function(i) {
      if($(this).hasClass('subHeading')) {
        rowClass = 1
      }
      else {
        rowClass++;
        $(this).removeClass('array1 array2')
        if(rowClass % 2 == 0) {
          $(this).addClass('array2');
        }
        else {
          $(this).addClass('array1');
        }
      }
    });
  }
</script>

And added the following to "css/flat_and_modern.css" (based on default template of v. 2.5):

Code:

/* Array table Subheading*/
 .subHeading {
     background-color: #233140;
     color: #ffffff;
     font-weight: normal;
     padding-top: 1em !important;
 }

Thanks, I like it when people take my suggestions and modify them for their specific needs. That's why I heavily comment most of my posted code.
